Aerodynamic Songtext
von King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard

A doorway opened
Endless ocean
Super highway
Scoundrels unbind
The ship was gently swaying, cradled
Smooth sailing in a wintery July

The silence of a lifeless soul
Shimmers in the early morning glow
Like the chorus in a Greek tragedy
The thunder′s knock, knock, knocking
Devil's staring back at me, yeah

Lightning strikes upon the nose of my boat
As I′m shape-shifting and drifting, trying to stay afloat
Crystal clear, I got the vision of a deer in the headlights
The end is near without a fear in sight


The moon speaks to me this night, yeah
She says, "Follow my light
Like a moth's inner compass"
She says, "Chase what you can't have
Oh, this land-borne curse clings to you like algae
If only you were a star, you′d be not sedentary"

I said, "I have always wondered
If I could step out of my body
Would I be a fish out of water
Or like a school in harmony?
So, Miss Moon, if I could have one wish
I′d turn my hands into wings
I'd say goodbye to the fish
And I′d jump from the highest cliff"

Yeah
I wanna be aerodynamic

Woo!
Never gonna get there, never gonna get there
Holy land is a figment
Never gonna get there, never gonna get there
Sailing for infinity
Never gonna get there, never gonna get there
Holy land is a figment
Never gonna get there, never gonna get there
This ship is a shipwreck


I'm just floating away on this barrel of pain
Is this just me stranded at sea in a sailor′s dream?
I'll just sing to the sharks and maybe they′ll think twice
They're just trying to survive in the world like me, alright
I ain't got hope, but I can′t help but smile
That 40 odd thousand foot of tears won′t save me from an appetite
I accept my fate, my time is nigh
I'm just gonna sit here and watch the waves roll by

I wanna be aerodynamic
