Flaming Lips, The - Race For The Prize (Mokran Mix) Lyrics






Two scientists were racing
For the good of all mankind
Both of them side by side
So Determined
Locked in heated battle
For the cure that is their prize
But it's so dangerous
But they're determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Upwards to the vanguard
Where the pressure is too high
Under the microscope
Hope against hope

Forging for the future
But to sarcrifice their lives
Both of them side by side
So determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Theirs is to win
It will kill them
They're just humans
With wives and children

    Maybe the best song I've heard in my 34 years. First bought this album in 2003 or so and nothing has topped it. Pure transcendence.

  9. N.... ....

    awesome.

  10. D.... D....

    I'd be cool with this one if he didn't cut out that little guitar arpeggiating after "dangerous" and such

  11. C.... F....

    I prefer this version than the original one. I always miss the echoing vocals when I hear the original. However, I admit that the drums are better in the late. I think that the ideal would put the strong drums of the original in the Mokran's. version.

  12. N.... ....

    Very nice! However, I somewhat lament the neutering of the drumming. Best part of this song was the earth-rending blast of the backing drums during the hook, and they feel kinda quiet here.

    N.... ....

    100%. Definition of flaming lips awesome drum sound right here. Its like mokran doesnt get it

    N.... ....

    Nick I actually prefer this version over the original, the piano is beautiful.
