Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1 - The Flaming Lips [Cover]
Hey guys! Been thinking about doing this one for years, so here's my cover of Yoshimi Battles the Pink Robots, Pt. 1. It's the first part of the title track from the album with the same name by The Flaming Lips. One of my favorite albums. This is not my best cover in any way. I really struggle to sing this song, to be honest. You can probably hear how strained my voice gets at some parts, especially when I sing "Robots", haha! Hope you can forgive it. After all, Wayne Coyne, doesn't always sing like a pitch perfect angel either, but I still love his voice. So full of personality!
If you like what you hear, I would really appreciate if you would leave a comment, like and subscribe. It strengthens my motivation to continue uploading videos.
Lyrics:
Her name is Yoshimi
She's a black belt in karate
Workin' for the city
She has to discipline her body
'Cause she knows that
It's demandin'
To defeat those evil machines
I know she can beat them
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
Those evil-natured robots
They're programmed to destroy us
She's gotta be strong to fight them
So she's takin' lots of vitamins
'Cause she knows that
It'd be tragic
If those evil robots win
I know she can beat them
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
'Cause she knows that
It'd be tragic
If those evil robots win, yeah
I know she can beat them
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
