Nude Disintegrating Parachutist Woman Lyrics
Moving, drifting
Dangling, lilting
These visions of a mystery girl
She's coming out of cloud nine yeah
Laughing, going
Nude yeah yeah
Disintegrating parachutist woman
Woman, climbing
Drifting, wild one
These visions of a mystery girl
And she's coming out of cloud nine yeah
Oh I can see her
Nude yeah yeah
Disintegrating parachutist woman
I got a feeling, I got a feeling inside
I got a feeling that I can't hide
I got a feeling, I got a feeling inside
I got a feeling that I can't hide
Moving, drifting
Dangling, lilting
These visions of a mystery girl
She's coming out of cloud nine yeah
Falling seeing
Nude yeah yeah
Disintegrating parachutist woman
Nude yeah yeah
Nude disintegrating parachutist woman
Dangling, lilting

According to Burke Shelley on the track, he stated "I know about because it's the title of a painting that I'd read about and I just wrote the song around the title. I just love the title."
Although it doesn't have a specific narrative, the song creates a surreal atmosphere by describing a mysterious girl who is in a state of disintegration while parachuting. Lyrically, it suggests a sense of movement and instability, as well as vulnerability and unpredictability, as the girl mentioned is depicted as "moving, drifting, dangling, and lilting." The word "nude" adds to the vulnerability and portrays a true state of exposure and rawness, creating a contrast between the innocence or natural state of the woman and the disintegration happening to her. It can be taken as a young woman coming into adulthood, her innocence falling away from her as she falls through life in turmoil.
