Yesterday was nice And today looked fine And we're glad the sky opened up The moon came crashing down I wish that I Could tell you That it's all alright Wish that I Could tell you That it's all alright But in truth we're doomed Consumed by all the truck fumes That would kill you without uttering a sound In truth we're doomed Entombed by the wicked law men and the benzene underground The architecture ruining this town Tilt your head back, don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Over and over Over again I wish that I Could tell you That it's all alright Wish that I Could tell you That it's all alright But in truth we're doomed Consumed by all the truck fumes That would kill you without uttering a sound In truth we're doomed Entombed by the wicked law men and the benzene underground The architecture ruining this town Tilt your head back, don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Over and over Over again
This is a tragic video, most of us will die from disease, the song beautifully captures that feeling of inevitable doom and the pressure/hope of being in battle with these invisible enemies. I hope some scientist working on a cure from one of our many ailments watches this and cries ;).
Everything is finite and time is so precious but we can't live in fear because we are doomed. I just want to spend as much time as I can with those I love which I've been neglecting for too long.
This song reminds me that we too are under the glass of the microscope. The lyrics are a sad homage to our own self destructive tendancies, enough to make you cry. Then the chorus comes to blow your mind. Just like the end of a hidden camera show, we are told to tilt our head back, as if directed to our secret audience. We are now aware that this world was a test. We were monitored this whole time, and we have failed miserably. The interdimensionals look down upon us in disgust. We spend our days robbing and murdering eachother. And in the end it seems we have brought Slugworth his requested gobstopper. No Chocolate factory for us.
Yesterday was nice And today looked fine And quickly the sky opened up The moon came crashing down I wish that I, could tell you That it's, all alright I wish that I, could tell you That it's, all alright But in truth, we're doomed Consumed by all the truck fumes that will kill you without uttering a sound In truth, we're doomed Entombed by oil spills, the wicked lawmen and the benzene underground The architecture ruining this town Tilt your head back, and don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, and don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Over and over Over again I wish that I, could tell you That it's, all alright I wish that I, could tell you That it's, all alright But in truth, we're doomed Consumed by all the truck fumes that will kill you without uttering a sound In truth, we're doomed Entombed by oil spills, the wicked lawmen and the benzene underground The architecture ruining this town Tilt your head back, and don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, and don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, and don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Tilt your head back, and don't choke Under the glass of the microscope Over and over Over again We're going to (Over and over) We're going to hell (Over again) We're going to We're going to

no one forces you to listen to this tho. i'm sure people who love yeasayer and are here to appreciate this song would not care for any of your opinion. So, save it to your sad self.
Probably one of the most visually compelling videos I've ever seen. This stuff sends your 12 year-old self to fend in the infinite jungle of visual orgasmetry.
The word hipster, well, it's kind of getting old and has lost any initial meaning it may have had. It's a lazy word, and generally used by people who need a word to describe something they can't grasp/relate to.
The most melancholic song you guys have ever written.
The world misses your music, please reunite.
the emotion that this song provokes in me brings me closer to tears
This song just gets better and better every second...
Yesterday was nice
And today looked fine
And we're glad the sky opened up
The moon came crashing down
I wish that I
Could tell you
That it's all alright
Wish that I
Could tell you
That it's all alright
But in truth we're doomed
Consumed by all the truck fumes
That would kill you without uttering a sound
In truth we're doomed
Entombed by the wicked law men and the benzene underground
The architecture ruining this town
Tilt your head back, don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Over and over
Over again
I wish that I
Could tell you
That it's all alright
Wish that I
Could tell you
That it's all alright
But in truth we're doomed
Consumed by all the truck fumes
That would kill you without uttering a sound
In truth we're doomed
Entombed by the wicked law men and the benzene underground
The architecture ruining this town
Tilt your head back, don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Over and over
Over again
Big mood rn.

This is one of my favorite songs of all time but it affects me so deeply that I can't bare to listen to it more than a few times a year
Most underrated band in the universe.
this song is awesome, surprised I had not heard it until now.
Saw them live in New Orleans, one of the best experiences of my life!
this video deserves more views
Not what I'm looking for

+Michael R. same for me .-D
This video captures the beauty of the song so well.
BEST SONG EVER
+DR ACTION THUNDER POWER SHOCK TURBO TEAM YES
No puedo creer la genialidad de esta canción y vídeo
this is how I felt when I first heard Radiohead's Amnesiac album and was like "I'm so happy this music exists"
Beautiful movie, it brought me to tears. Thank you.
This is a tragic video, most of us will die from disease, the song beautifully captures that feeling of inevitable doom and the pressure/hope of being in battle with these invisible enemies. I hope some scientist working on a cure from one of our many ailments watches this and cries ;).
+TheFractalFreak as a geologist i've been thinking about the flint crisis and watching this, and nearly crying. so yeah.
what about the scientists working on our many ailments
I suppose they are laughing

LOVE this tune, smiley faces for all yo!
Wow what an amazing video!!! So happy they made a video for this song and it fits together so well.
Just figured out: “entombed by oil spills, the wicked lawmen & the benzene underground.”
Yesterday was nice
And today looked fine
And quickly the sky opened up
The moon came crashing down
I wish that I, could tell you
That it's, all alright
I wish that I, could tell you
That it's, all alright
But in truth, we're doomed
Consumed by all the truck fumes that will kill you without uttering a sound
In truth, we're doomed
Entombed by oil spills, the wicked lawmen and the benzene underground
The architecture ruining this town
Tilt your head back, and don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, and don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Over and over
Over again
I wish that I, could tell you
That it's, all alright
I wish that I, could tell you
That it's, all alright
But in truth, we're doomed
Consumed by all the truck fumes that will kill you without uttering a sound
In truth, we're doomed
Entombed by oil spills, the wicked lawmen and the benzene underground
The architecture ruining this town
Tilt your head back, and don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, and don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, and don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Tilt your head back, and don't choke
Under the glass of the microscope
Over and over
Over again
We're going to
(Over and over)
We're going to hell
(Over again)
We're going to
We're going to

He/she can say whatever he/she wants, this is the internet. No need to be so upset somebody doesnt like it.
nice to see more new videos did not think we would see more for Fragrant World glad thy did love the look. would love one for Henrietta
Super amped by the song and this amazing video!!

Yeasayer are criminally not listened to
like OMG best video of the year!
Great!
no one forces you to listen to this tho. i'm sure people who love yeasayer and are here to appreciate this song would not care for any of your opinion.
So, save it to your sad self.
Incredible song, & great video.
so great ❤️❤️❤️
Probably one of the most visually compelling videos I've ever seen. This stuff sends your 12 year-old self to fend in the infinite jungle of visual orgasmetry.
has a strawberry jam animal collective vibe
Agree
Please include this song on your gigs! Maybe before the encore? :D
This song is compelling.
Uwielbiam ich...
amazing...
Trippy video
Something aleins would listen to while creating us, or something the universe had inside it before it was it.
I want to look at a beautiful things through a microscope now :D
2020 in a very sexy nutshell
when are they releasing a new album its been like 3-4 years , No?
+shane alexander They're putting out a new record in april.
I. Am. Chemistry.
Six years old but this music videos subject matter has never been more relevant than it is in 2020 today...
Art is never understood
Yeasayer качает!
Honest and depressing. I wish there was a happy ending to any of this, but there isn't.
a Budweiser commercial brought me here i think, n i'm glad it did
Yeasayer saw COVID-19 coming
nice electron microscope. SCIENCE!!!
I'm next...
Sounds nice :-)
this is really really similar to the Grooms video for "Infinity Caller"'!!!!!!!!
you should see it!
a virus that instead of turning you into a zombie, infects you with dance...
Nice.
albert Hoffman glasses were bomb
Cool as dry ice in a freezer
Reminds me of the beginning of Hold My Liquor by Kanye
This video is so fucking cool
Do you guys know similar music / with similar feeling? ;-)
This song is awesome but I'm pretty sure that microscope prop being used isn't even on.
You directed that video, no?
4 people had this song on mute while Wrecking Ball was playing in the background.
эффект голоса начинает действовать на нервы как и рот мужика с палочкой
Tweeted @musosguide
???????
Did this remind anybody else of Radiohead's House of Cards music video....?
WTF
Suspiciously similar.... hmmmmm.
The word hipster, well, it's kind of getting old and has lost any initial meaning it may have had. It's a lazy word, and generally used by people who need a word to describe something they can't grasp/relate to.
I didn't realize scientists were supposed to dress like future hipsters. Gotta work on that.
Riight. I forget. Not supposed to use the H word around hipsters. They get defensive.
music sucks
