| The Flaming Lips – Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots Pt. 1 Lyrics

Neina - I think that's the plot for the musical that's being made of the album?
I saw 'em last night and what Coyne said about was when they wrote it, it was just random, it didn't have any meaning, but these days after hearing it being sang at shows, he realised that it's about friendship. A friend that everyone else thinks is insane, but you believe in them, no matter how crazy their ideas are, such as say, fighting robots. Like how a lot of people thought he was insane when he started the band.
Hearing several thousand people singing this last night, never knew it could be so touching! Just hugged my friend I was there with for the whole thing! |

This song makes me think of depression, and how it can eliminate all thoughts of happinness, or become so overbearing that you forget about everything, and it's a call for it to leave and everything else to come back. Love this album. |

I agree. Its about drugs, but its also a love song about these two characters. I think the serotonin line refers to the girl he's chatting up, not the drugs. I think its about using drugs to maybe be someone else, going from this shy retirer to a more confident guy (I lost my social skills...) that decides he "wants to fall in love" and goes for it, chatting up this girl |
