King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard - Perihelion Lyrics






Space is the place for the human race
Chasing the race for the new place
Days on our old place waste
Starship's team full of everybody keen
Pilot in the twilight is a deep dream
Men and machine convene

Peri-Perihelion
Peri-Perihelion
Peri-Perihelion
Peri-Perihelion

Giver of life and the giver of speed
Ever we take even her gravity
Her glowing beauty is something to see
Bigger and brighter she cometh to me

Solar mountain comes on the perihelion
No rerouting, only countin' till we're done
Shoutin' sins until we're in the Sun
(Peri-Perihelion)
Melting humans and everything they bring
In a blink, the sun will drink their things
Grinning sun has sinners for dinner

Peri-Perihelion
Peri-Perihelion
Peri-Perihelion
Peri-Perihelion

Giver of life and the giver of speed
Ever we take even her gravity
Her glowing beauty is something to see
Bigger and brighter she cometh to me

Peri-Perihelion (Peri-Perihelion)
Peri-Perihelion (Peri-Perihelion)
Peri-Perihelion (Peri-Perihelion)
Peri-Perihelion (Peri-Perihelion)

  1. L.... t....

    What the f--k is this?

  2. J.... G....

    I was front row in New Orleans for their show on September third. They opened with self immolate and went directly into this. Crowd went fucking nuts.

  3. D.... K....

    Mark Zuckerberg plays some mean guitar

  4. U.... ....

    The riff reminds me of early Mastodon circa Leviathan.

    U.... ....

    I kinda hear it. That era where Troy was the frontman. Now it's more balanced

  5. T.... ....

    It should be illegal for two drummers to be syncopated like this.

  6. s.... ....

    you can call me King Jizz right about now

  7. T.... ....

    I had no idea there was a tambourine in this song

    T.... ....

    Totema1 There’s no tambourine in the original studio recording, they just use it live to give Ambrose something to do for the song lol.

  8. R.... K....

    This excellent. I've liked what I heard from them in the past, but never cared for how the vocals sounded. I can finally hear this his voice!

  9. C.... C....

    Stu's raspy metal voice is just brilliant, but Joey and Amby fullfil it even more.

  10. C.... M....

    Dis got my juices pumpin

  11. V.... F....

    So fucking TIGHT!

  12. B.... J....

  15. J.... D....

    The chorus always reminds me of something parkway drive would write

  16. R.... C....

    Cheryl is tryna start a pit in the studio 😂

  23. L.... M....

    Saw them live on the euro-leg of their world tour and was utterly blown away by the virtuosity the bring onstage without ever looking even a bit exhausted. Pretty insane performers.

    L.... M....

    �.... ....

    @imnotlucie not enough

  43. E.... R....

    Saw them play this from the front row in Portland with my family. Simply amazing band.

    E.... R....

    That show was something special. Security kind of sucked though. Kept walking in front of me.

    E.... R....

    Did you and your family kick the fuck out of each other in the pit? Missed opportunity if not.

  44. V.... D....

    is space is the place for the human race?

    V.... D....

    According to King Gizzard it is ;)

    V.... D....

    sun ra said it 60 years before

  45. A.... M....

    💀King Gizz and KEXP 🖤an incredible combination. It's so altered.

    A.... M....

    They already had a show on KEXP 1 or 2 years ago ( maybe more) A very BIG show! I discovered them like that. Find it and enjoy!!!

    A.... M....

    They've done two I think. For billabong valley and I'm in your mind

    J.... K....

    He also can play harmonica, keys. Guitar and a weird Turkish flute. He just likes his tambourine and harmonica alot

    J.... K....

    @Evan Murphy Ambrose can do anything he wants, forever!

  57. I.... K....

    Oh my god, oh my god

  58. T.... H....

    Best live band in the world right now hands down.

    T.... H....

    Yeah great band! But I saw Ty Segall last week. That freedom band of his is even better then the Liz Wiz

    T.... H....

    @Joël Kopp not a chance!

    T.... H....

    It's a toss-up between them and Everything Everything for me, but for them, the best argument would have to be seeing them in person.

    T.... H....

    @Joël Kopp and i just saw thee oh sees for the 8th time last week and theyre definitely the band that gave both the gizz and segall their work ethics

    T.... H....

    King Crimson is the best live band in the world 50 years after forming.

  59. J.... M....

    It’s happening!
