1.Slow Motion

Hey, come on over
You know the day is going slower.
It takes a year to make a day
And I'm feeling like a float in a Macy's Day parade,
Or like a boat, out on the ocean
I'm drifting round in slow motion.

It takes a year to make a day...

Hey, come on over
You know the day is going slower.
It takes a year to make a day
And I'm feeling like a float in a Macy's Day parade,
Or like a boat, out on the ocean
I'm drifting round in slow motion,
Motion, motion


2.Waitin' for a Superman

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

Asked you a question
I didn't need you to reply
Is it gettin' heavy?
But they'll realize

Is it gettin' heavy?
Well, I thought it was already as heavy as can be

Is it overwhelming
To use a crane to crush a fly?
It's a good time for Superman
To lift the sun into the sky

'Cause it's gettin' heavy
Well, I thought it was already as heavy as can be

Tell everybody
Waitin' for Superman
That they should try to hold on
Best they can

He hasn't dropped them
Forgot them
Or anything
It's just too heavy for Superman to lift

Is it gettin' heavy?
Well, I thought it was already as heavy as can be

Tell everybody
Waitin' for Superman
That they should try to hold on
Best they can

He hasn't dropped them
Forgot them
Or anything
It's just too heavy for Superman to lift


3.The Spark That Bled

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

I accidentally touched my head
And noticed that I had been bleeding
For how long, I didn't know

What was this I thought, that struck me?
What kind of weapons have they got?
The softest bullet ever shot

I stood up and I said, 'Yeah'
I stood up and I said, 'Yeah'
I stood up and I said, 'Hey, yeah yeah yeah'

From this moment on
Blaring like a trumpet
Coming from above us and somewhere below

The confidence of knowing
Descending to relieve us
Struggle to believe it's so

I stood up and I said, 'Yeah'
I spoke up and I said, 'Hey'
I stood up and I said, 'Hey, yeah yeah yeah'

And it seemed to cause a chain reaction
It had momentum, it was gaining 'traction
It was all the rage, it was all the fashion

The outreached hands had resigned themselves
To holding onto something that they never had
And that's too bad 'cause in reality there was no reaction

I accidentally touched my head
And noticed that I had been bleeding
For how long, I didn't know


4.Suddenly Everything Has Changed

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

Puttin' all the vegetables away
That you bought at the grocery store today
And it goes fast, you think of the past

Suddenly everything has changed

Drivin' home, the sky accelerates
And the clouds all form a geometric shape
And it goes fast, you think of the past

And suddenly everything has changed

Puttin' all the clothes you've washed away
And as you're folding up the shirts you hesitate
Then it goes fast, you think of the past

And suddenly everything has changed


5.Race For The Prize

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

Two scientists were racing
For the good of all mankind
Both of them side by side
So determined

Locked in heated battle
For the cure that is their prize
But it's so dangerous
But they're determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Upwards to the vanguard
Where the pressure is too high
Under the microscope
Hope against hope

Forging for the future
But to sacrifice their lives
Both of them side by side
So determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Theirs is to win
It will kill them
They're just humans
With wives and children


6.The Observer

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins


7.Sleeping on the Roof

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins


作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins, Ronald Jones

All those bugs buzzin' â€~round your head
Well, they fly in the air as you comb your hair
And the summertime will make you
Itch the mosquito bites

The buzz of love is busy buggin' you
Well, they fly in the air as you comb your hair
And they're splattered up and down
Your windshield and the headlights

Well, they bite
Yeah, they bite
But you can see them there

Well, they bite
Yeah, they bite
But you can tell they're there

Does love buzz because that's what it does?
Well, they fly in the air as you comb your hair
And the summertime will make you
Itch the mosquito bites

Well, they fly in the air as you comb your hair
And they're splattered up and down
Your windshield and the headlights

Well, they fly in the air, comb your hair
Fly in the air, comb your hair


9.A Spoonful Weighs A Ton

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

And though they were sad
They rescued everyone
They lifted up the sun
A spoonful weighs a ton

Giving more than they had
The process had begun
A million came from one
The limits now were none

Being drunk on their plan
They lifted up the sun

Forcing it off with their hands
The trapdoor came undone
Above our heads it swung
The privilege had been won

Being drunk on their plan
They lifted up the sun

Yelling as hard as they can
The doubters all were stunned
Heard louder than a gun
The sound they made was love


10.What Is The Light?

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

What is the light
That you have
Shining all around you?
Is it chemically derived?

'Cause if it's natural
Something glowing from inside
Shining all around you
It's potential has arrived

Looking into space, it surrounds you
Love is the place that you're drawn to
Looking into space, it surrounds you
Love is the face that you're drawn to

Looking into space, it surrounds you
Love is the place that you're drawn to
Looking into space, it surrounds you
Love is the face that you're drawn to

What is the light
That you have
Shining all around you?
Is it chemically derived?


11.The Gash

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

Aaa aaa aaa aaa aaa aaa
Aaa aaa aaa aaa aaa aaa aaa
Ooo
Aaa
Aa aaa
Ooo ooo ooo ooo
Aa
Aa
Ooo

Is that gash in your leg
Really why you have stopped?
'Cause I've noticed all the others
Though they're gashed, they're still goin'
'Cause I feel like the real reason
That you're quitting and admitting
That you've lost all the will to battle on

Will the fight for our sanity
Be the fight of our lives?
Now that we've lost all the reasons
That we thought that we had

Still the battle that we're in
Rages on till the end
With explosions, wounds are open
Sights and smells, eyes and noses
But the thought that went unspoken
Was understandin' that you're broken
Still the last volunteer battles on

Battles on
Battles on
Battles on


12.Feeling Yourself Disintegrate

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

Love in our life is just too valuable
Oh, to feel for even a second without it
But life without death is just impossible
Oh, to realize something is ending within us

Feelin' yourself disintegrate
Feelin' yourself disintegrate
Feelin' yourself disintegrate
Feelin' yourself disintegrate

Feelin' yourself disintegrate
Feelin' yourself disintegrate
Feelin' yourself disintegrate
Feelin' yourself disintegrate


13.Waitin' For A Superman (Mokran Mix)

作詞:Wayne Coyne, Steven Drozd, Michael Ivins

Asked you a question, I didn't need you to reply
Is it gettin' heavy? But then I realized
Is it gettin' heavy? Well, I thought it was
Already as heavy as can be

Is it overwhelming to use a crane to crush a fly?
It's a good time for Superman to lift the sun into the sky
'Cause it's gettin' heavy, well, I thought it was
Already as heavy as can be

Tell everybody, waitin' for Superman
That they should try to hold on the best they can
He hasn't dropped them, forgot them or anything
It's just too heavy for Superman to lift

'Cause it's gettin' heavy, well, I thought it was
Already as heavy as can be

Tell everybody, waitin' for Superman
That they should try to hold on the best they can
He hasn't dropped them, forgot them or anything
It's just too heavy for Superman to lift
