A true story - at the Oklahoma City airport, 8am one Monday morning in 2012. Thanks, Wayne!

lyrics

I'm at the airport heading for the gate
Got my rolling bag and ticket in my hand.
When over to the right, man that guy looks familiar
That hair, that coat, I know he's in a band
Yeah it's Mr. Flaming Lips, that's Wayne Coyne
His songs are sung in hundreds of lands
I walked straight up to him and said
"I can't believe you're here, thanks for the music,
I just want to shake your hand."

Wayne took my hand, said "What's your name, where you going?"
I told him and I asked, "How about you?"
"Off to New York City for a Broadway play by the guy
Who'll bring Yoshimi to the stage."
I should have said "Wayne, thanks for Fight Test
That song kills me every time it plays."
Instead I said "Wow, that's cool, well I gotta go"
And I turned and went off to catch a plane
