"Hypertension" lyrics - KING GIZZARD & THE LIZARD WIZARD

Like a red herring, laminated denim
A note outside the scale from beyond the pale
Unwitting host, inside-out ghost
Harbinger of changes, destiny exchanges
Time slows, eyes close
In crimson tubes the pressure grows
Sticky red death, life theft
Hypertension is all that's left
Woo!

[Bridge:]
Golden hour turns to pink vein wine light, Satan's son, fowl one
Demon of time, bat wing membrane eclipsed the sun for fun

Generation ferry, laminated denim
Rotate anti-clockwise and see through backward facing eyes
Feel its allure, history jeweller
Stumbled on its ladder and eaten by its chasm
Then your mind slows, stress grows
In crimson tubes the pressure grows
Sticky red death, life theft
Hypertension is all that's left, woo!

[Bridge:]
Who am I if not the canary in the coal mine? I won't be back
I slipped and fell into its lap, innards boil inside my tracts

[Refrain:]
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim, woo!

[Outro:]
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
I caught that hypertension in another dimension
Inside my time invention, I've laminated denim
