[The Flaming Lips - Fight Test lyrics]
The test begins now
I thought I was smart, I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight
I thought there was a virtue
In always being cool
So when it came time to fight
I thought I'll just step aside
And that the time would prove you wrong
And that you would be the fool
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery
Oh, to fight is to defend if it's not now
Then tell me when would be the time that
You would stand up and be a man?
For to lose I could accept
But to surrender I just wept
And regretted this moment
Oh, that I, I was the fool
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
'Cause, I'm a man, not a boy
And there are things you can't avoid
You have to face them when you're
Not prepared to face them
If I could, I would
But, you're with him now, it'd do no good
I should have fought him
But instead I let him i let him take you
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery a mystery
The test is over now
I thought I was smart, I thought I was right
I thought it better not to fight
I thought there was a virtue
In always being cool
So when it came time to fight
I thought I'll just step aside
And that the time would prove you wrong
And that you would be the fool
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery
Oh, to fight is to defend if it's not now
Then tell me when would be the time that
You would stand up and be a man?
For to lose I could accept
But to surrender I just wept
And regretted this moment
Oh, that I, I was the fool
I don't know where the sun beams
End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery
And I don't know how a man decides
What's right for his own life
It's all a mystery
'Cause, I'm a man, not a boy
And there are things you can't avoid
You have to face them when you're
Not prepared to face them

But, you're with him now, it'd do no good

End and the starlights begin
It's all a mystery a mystery
