The Flaming Lips

The Flaming Lips are an American rock band, formed in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma in 1983. Instrumentally, their sound contains lush, multi-layered, psychedelic rock arrangements, but lyrically their compositions show elements of space rock, including unusual song and album titles—such as "What Is the Light? (An Untested Hypothesis Suggesting That the Chemical [In Our Brains] by Which We Are Able to Experience the Sensation of Being in Love Is the Same Chemical That Caused the "Big Bang" That Was the Birth of the Accelerating Universe)".

Some go and some stay behind
Some never move at all
Girl in amber trapped forever
Spinning down the hall
Let no part of her go unremembered 
Clothes across the floor
Girl in amber lumber slumber 
Shuts the bathroom door

The phone, the phone the phone it rings
The phone it rings no more
The song, the song, the song it spins 
Since nineteen eighty-four
The phone, the phone, the phone it rings 
The phone it rings no more
The song, the song 
It's been spinning now since nineteen
If you want to bleed
Just bleed
If you want to bleed 
Just bleed
And if you want to bleed 
Don't breathe
A word

I get lucky 
I get lucky 'cause I tried again
I knew the world it would stop spinning now 
Since you've been gone
I used to think that when you died 
You kind of wandered the world
In a slumber 'til you crumbled 
Were absorbed into the earth
Well, I don't think that any more
Any more
Any more

If you want to bleed
Just bleed
If you want to bleed 
Just bleed
And if you want to bleed 
Don't breathe
A word

If you want to bleed
Just bleed
If you want to bleed 
Just bleed
And if you want to bleed 
Don't breathe
A word
