A jittery music video was shot for Can’t Stop the Spring – it may have been the first music video the Flaming Lips ever made, though it only saw wider release in 1994 on the live VHS Black Easter.
[Verse 1]
You can walk among us, but you can't walk on by
You just keep on bleeding' on your clothes as they dry
All your Teflon pancakes always make me too high
You're thinking' that you're here but you're really up in the sky
[Verse 2]
There she was just walking' down the street
Smoking with her hands and walking with her feet
Keeping her paint cans underneath the seat
Keeping' her hair dryer on her favorite piece of meat
[Bridge]
You can crush the flowers
But you can't stop the spring
No matter what you say
[Verse 3]
So you can put the clouds up in your own little way
But the sun is gonna come up the very next day
It's gonna be so bright it's gonna blow you away
And once it's over your head will never be the same
[Bridge]
You can crush the flowers
But you can't stop the spring
No matter what you say
You can't stop the spring from coming
You can't stop the spring
You can't stop the spring from coming
You can't stop the spring
You can't stop the spring from coming
You can't stop the spring
You can't stop the spring from coming
You can't stop the spring
