The Flaming Lips- Are You a Hypnotist??
i think this song, featured on the album ‘yoshimi battles the pink robots,’ got me interested in the flaming lips. i think i heard it while riding with a friend. i quickly went from, ‘what the hell is this?’ to ‘hmmm…’ and, finally, to ‘i can dig it!’ the song wonderfully exemplifies the quirky, fun magic coyne(s) and co. produce. you know what? i’d like to hear a rapper make a mixtape over the beats from this album. that would be interesting. until then, enjoy the original.
I had forgiven you for tricking me again
But I have been tricked again -
Into forgiving you -
What is this?? Are you some kind of hypnotist??
Waving your powers around -the sun eclipse behind the cloud…
I thought I recognized your face
Amongst all of those strangers -
But I am the stranger now
Amongst all of the recognized
What is this?? Are you some kind of hypnotist??
Waving your powers around -the sun eclipse behind the cloud
-the skinny miracle
