Flying Microtonal Banana is a first ever attempt at a fully microtonal album by King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard. The goal of the album is to set new melodic parameters within the microtonal intervals, without straying too far as to be disharmonious.
“Everything you do sounds wrong,” says guitari...
[Chorus]
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
[Verse 1]
Isolation
Trepidation
Don't fear nothing
Snake is bluffing
Whips his tail
Sends you running
[Chorus]
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
[Verse 2]
Vegetation
Aggravation
Found him hiding
Snake is smiling
Whips his tail
Leaves you riling
[Chorus]
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
[Refrain]
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
[Verse 3]
Hibernation
Altercation
Don't get angry
Snake is cranky
Whips his tail
In a frenzy
[Chorus]
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
[Refrain]
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
[Bridge]
I'm the serpent
Devil's servant
Time to meet your end
Fangs are ready for the strike
Deadly razor sharp
Poison with a single spike
While you're immobile
Screaming like a maniac after my attack
Crying like a baby child in exile
Sweat drips out of every pore as
I bite you more and more and more and
Take one last look at your captor
And hear my tail rattling 'til your death
Rattling 'til your death
[Refrain]
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
[Bridge]
I'm the serpent
Devil's servant
Time to meet your end
Fangs are ready for the strike
Deadly razor sharp
Poison with a single spike
When you're immobile
Screaming like a maniac after my attack
Crying like a baby child in exile
Sweat drips out of every pore as
I bite you more and more and more and
Take one last look at your captor
And hear my tail rattling 'til your death
Rattling 'til your death
[Refrain]
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
Rattle, rattle, rattle
[Verse 1]
Isolation
Trepidation
Don't fear nothing
Snake is bluffing
Whips his tail
Sends you running
[Chorus]
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
Rattlesnake, rattles me
Rattlesnake, rattlesnake
