Hypertension Songtext
von 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!

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!

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

Woo, 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!

Woo, 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
