this album is truly close to my heart and you better not let down the lips fans.......we can come up with something fierce............i am a lips fan since 2010, but yet, we lips fans can decide to hear the sound failure through you. you are not a true flaming lips fan, or otherwise you would know what wayne coyne does before every show? am i wrong, lips fans? this is lips territory! not benedict arnold's reign.
the guy does not know how to contact the lips Treachery!
The song is about a woman going through things that are tough (such as death) and then hearing the crappy happy songs of Gwen and Britney Spears in the background.
Imagine you are visiting your grandmother in the hospital and these two jackasses are singing their asinine songs and that is the soundtrack of your visit to the hospital.
They know nothing of what it means to be dead or what they are even singing about. They are puppets. It is a very angry song.
I just heard Wayne, Steven, and Michael talking about this song, and they were not thinking of Gwen Stefani and Britney Spears for the line "so go tell Britney, and go tell Gwen..." Britney and Gwen are just like stand-in names for the girl's naive and slightly insensitive friends. Steven even said he appreciates what Gwen Stefani is doing in the music business.
Saying that this is "a very angry song" makes absolutely no sense to me. Give it another listen with an open mind.
But the composition of slight Rock mixed with extraterrestrial vocals made me seriously close my eyes for few minutes and just hover through my thoughts...
This whole album is great, this song ranks top 3 for this particular album. the flaming lips can be used as a form of a Space Shuttle; as in they can take you away from earth mentally. I am a Doctor of Medicine, and consider this a form sound therapy
if you don't like the flaming lips i don't want to be your friend

This song gets played repetitively on my mp3 player, it has kind of a late 70's vibe to it. ( Eagles meets ELO or something )
