Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1
The Flaming Lips
[Verse 1]
Her name is Yoshimi
She's a black belt in karate
Workin' for the city
She has to discipline her body
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause she knows that
It's demandin'
To defeat those evil machines
I know she can beat them
[Chorus]
Oh, Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots eat me
Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots defeat me
[Verse 2]
Those evil-natured robots (I'll get you, Yoshimi)
They're programmed to destroy us
She's gotta be strong to fight them
So she's takin' lots of vitamins
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause she knows that ('Cause she knows that)
It'd be tragic (It'd be tragic)
If those evil robots win (Evil robots)
I know she can beat them
[Chorus]
Oh, Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots defeat me
Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots eat me, Yoshimi
[Pre-Chorus]
'Cause she knows that ('Cause she knows that)
It'd be tragic (It'd be tragic)
If those evil robots win, yeah (Evil robots)
I know she can beat them
[Chorus]
Oh, Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots defeat me
Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots defeat me
Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots eat me
Yoshimi, they don't believe me
But you won't let those robots eat me, Yoshimi
