Without taking into context the rest of the album, I heard something completely different: my ex's subconscious speaking. My most recent serious relationship was with a self-centered, overrated egotist actor. She was able to assume a variety of roles, including the role of f***ing up my world like a tornado. In the end, sometimes I wondered if she wasn't more of a creature than just a human with a screwed up idea of love. Interestingly, most of the entities mentioned above that "she can be" are predators or killers - not exactly the most innocuous of beings.

Song Meaning

Omigosh dude, don't think I'm laughing AT you, but that was the most hilarious interpretation of this song ever. I know EXACTLY what you mean. I have an ex JUST LIKE THAT. I never even liked that song, but after reading this, this song speaks to me. You might be wrong, but you gave this song meaning for me.

I have never previously heard The Flaming Lips before I listened to this song just now at 3 AM, and I created an account on here to reply to this comment.

True that, man. True that.
