Even in death, the king seemed to be still alive
Into his giant mouth, come on, climb inside
And see the stars, the storms, the swirls
And other worlds that are still there in his head
Still there in his mind
Some were curious, some didn't care
Some were falling in love, some scared
Oh boys and girls, remember this
Although I have died, I will always exist
From the time that you smile
And every time that you're kind
I'm there in your mouth
And I'm there in your mind
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
Oh moms and dads (Moms and dads)
Your ships and cars (Your ships and cars)
Show your children (Show your children)
How they came from the stars (They came from the stars)
And all the meaning (All the meaning)
And all that there was (And all there was)
Is got through deeds (Got through deeds)
That are done with love (Done with love)
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
Now everybody knows
Yeah, everybody knows it
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
The mouth of the king
(The mouth of the king)
Inside the king's mouth
They entered into the hope of a future
(The mouth of the king)
That has yet to be lived
Raining down, dream upon dream
(The mouth of the king)
With love from above
Dripping and jumping and falling and puffing
(The mouth of the king)
And pulsing and loving

The Flaming Lips sono un gruppo musicale statunitense formatosi ad Oklahoma City nel 1983. Il sound del gruppo, caratterizzato da una fusione di alternative rock, psichedelia e pop, è stato fin dall'inizio guidato dalla personalità carismatica del cantante Wayne Coyne. Negli anni '90 hanno raggiunto un successo commerciale con il singolo "She Don't Use Jelly", che ha dimostrato la loro capacità di mescolare elementi pop a sonorità più sperimentali. L'album *The Soft Bulletin* (1999) è considerato uno dei capolavori del decennio, ispirato da *Pet Sounds* dei Beach Boys e caratterizzato da arrangiamenti complessi e testi poetici. Il loro album successivo, *Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots* (2002), ha riscosso un grande successo di critica e commerciale, diventando il loro disco più venduto. I Flaming Lips sono noti anche per i loro spettacoli dal vivo, caratterizzati da scenografie elaborate, costumi eccentrici e l'utilizzo di effetti speciali come video, luci e coriandoli. Tra le loro canzoni più rappresentative: "She Don't Use Jelly", "Race for the Prize", "Do You Realize??" e "Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots".
