    Lyrics:
    Assassins of Youth
    Even when they tell the truth
    Another little part of you dies
    Their truth is a lie
    Assassins of Youth
    Shoot whoever they can shoot
    They are still here going on and on
    You’re already gone
    I was young
    Yesterday
    But everything has changed
    After today
    Now I don't know
    What to do
    Oh my younger self
    Oh I
    I miss you
    Yes I do
    Assassin of Youth
    Even when they tell the truth
    Another little part of you dies
    The truth is a lie
    Assassin of Youth
    Shoot whoever they can shoot
    They are still here going on and on
    You’re already gone
    Gone
    I was young
    Yesterday
    But everything is changed after today
    And I don't know
    What to do
    Oh my younger self
    Oh I
    I miss you
    Yes I do
    I guess I couldn't see
    The joke it was on me How sad to think in time
    Even your death will die
    I can't believe their lies
    I can’t believe you’ve died
    They shoot whoever they can shoot
    Assassins of youth

      @@bt4dapeople We where in the bubbles for 2 songs. Assassins of Youth and Brother Eye. They played them twice. They let us use the bathroom while we where standing in line waiting to go inside. They provided 2 bottles of water and a cloth to wipe down any condensation that would happen because of breathing and sweating.

      @@reneeduran5352 They used leaf blowers to inflate the bubbles. Breathing was super easy no issues at all. It did however get hot inside them. Recommend to ware less cloths. Shorts and a tank top or something. Even if your cold at first, after awhile you're gonna get hot. No bubbles popped, they where very durable. Everyone there seemed to have an amazing time.

    My fave track off American Head. Love the cosmic bleepy bloops with acoustic guitar strummy propulsion. Only the Lips pull this vibe off effortlessly. While Wayne speaks of universal themes we all can identify with. It’s a potent mix id be happy to see them explore on the next album. I miss the spacey and lush melodies and heart of Yoshimi and Soft Bulletin era.

      The air is fine though the more you exert yourself the foggier it gets, and balance is easy because you are held in place by other people’s bubbles on all sides, more importantly though if you trip on something on the ground in the bubble it is easy to catch yourself.
