The Flaming Lips - Thank You Jack White (For the Fiber-Optic Jesus That You Gave Me) lyrics
[The Flaming Lips - Thank You Jack White For the Fiber-Optic Jesus That You Gave Me lyrics]
Let me tell ya a story about a
Very special gift I received from a
From a man that I didn't know very well
But he brightened up the night and
Made it one of the great shining moments
Of our long tour goes like this
Backstage in Detroit and the room is full
Of smoke and apprehension
We'd been playing shows
As the warm-up and the band for Beck Hansen
In walks Jack, says - "How'd ya do?"
(Oh, yeah)
Then he handed me this wonderful statue
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me"
It shined so bright
That I couldn't help believin'
It would save me when I finally got it home
My whole neighborhood was aglow
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me"
(Here comes the pick, Oh, yeah)
Jack and Meg are funny they got a modern
Backwards-liberal family code
Brother and sister
Playing rock 'n' roll and doing
It on the road i bet that van begin to stink
But then I wonder - oh
- what Christ would think
I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me"
It shined so bright
That I couldn't help believin'
It would save me
And when I finally got it home
My whole neighborhood was aglow
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me"
(Nice one)
Very special gift I received from a
From a man that I didn't know very well
But he brightened up the night and
Made it one of the great shining moments
Of our long tour goes like this
Backstage in Detroit and the room is full
Of smoke and apprehension
We'd been playing shows
As the warm-up and the band for Beck Hansen
In walks Jack, says - "How'd ya do?"
(Oh, yeah)
Then he handed me this wonderful statue
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me"
It shined so bright
That I couldn't help believin'
It would save me when I finally got it home
My whole neighborhood was aglow
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me"
