Lyrics

We did not fade from noise meditation
A silent gesture for princess' pleasure

Getting dizzy sittin' around
Sacred Trickster and the no tech sound

I don't wanna know, whoa-oh
Who gets the highest score, no-oh

It's not a quiet meditation

You're so close...close to me

Mission control to brain police

Leaky lifeboat, called to shore

Who shot the poison arrow?

Radios play nothing when she's far away

C'mon down, I wanna hear you quiver
Oh oh oh...

California magic, a tan so tragic

Everything we see is clear

Sweet temptation came today
Time for angels to kneel and pray

I want you to levitate me
Don't you love me yet?

Trashcan Canterbury Hollywood Boulevard

Anti-war
Is Anti-orgasm

Everybody down

La la la la la la
