LETRAThank You Jack WhiteThe Flaming Lips

"Let me tell ya a story about a very special gift I received from a,
from a man that I didn't know very well.
But he brightened up the night and made
it one of the great shining moments of our long tour.
Goes like this"

Backstage in Detroit
And the room is full of smoke and apprehension
We'd been playing shows
As the warm-up and the band for Beck Hanson
In walks Jack, says - "How'd ya do?" (Oh yeah)
Then he handed me this wonderful statue.

And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me."
It shined so bright
That I couldn't help believin' it would save me.
When I finally got it home
My whole neighborhood was a-glow
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me."
(Here comes the down)

(Oh Yeah!)

Jack and Meg are funny
They got a modern backwards-liberal family code
Brother and sister
Playing rock 'n' roll and doing it on the road
I bet that van begin to stink
But then I wonder - oh - what Christ would think.

I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me."
It shined so bright
That I couldn't help believin' it would save me.
And when I finally got it home
My whole neighborhood was a-glow
And I said, "Thank you Jack White
For the fiber-optic Jesus that you gave me."
