Was it a date?

Don't Be Like The Sun Lyrics
Artist: Lemon Demon
Album: Clown Circus

the king of Mars perfects his commentary skills
I'm a gold plated man monkey full of dollar bills
if you're happier, dial 1 now
don't be fooled by gravity, and don't be like the sun
something went wrong, I hate this song
and if I could change one thing about the weather
well then I would tell the world and I'd become famous
and then I wouldn't need to care about the weather never
ever anymore cuz I would be relaxing in Hawaii
but that is not my fate, I'm trapped inside a cage
it isn't even locked, but I'm an idiot
(it's an illusion)
Caesar was a criminal, but his mother was a saint
some say that it's subliminal, but I say that it ain't
science was a masquerade, meant to sell you lemonade
and it worked, they're laughing in their graves
once again I'm falling down a mountain like a metaphor
(god damn leprechauns, god damn leprachauns)
shoot me from a cannon to the moon without a helmet on my head
or even oxygen to breath in the offhand chance that there's no air
air is like a something something, air is like an I don't know
and air is just like fog but it's not gray, and it makes me want to
breathe in toxic little fumes and then I breathe out sugar frosted blood
all I ever did to make you laugh was breath out sugar frosted blood
(what do I do now? tell me lest I do nothing... guardian devil)
I'd like to make a toast to all the little garden gnomes
who bravely sacrificed their lives for me
I'd like to make a toast but no one seems to have a cup
I wonder where my cup has gone. I think that it was taken by
the king of Mars perfects his commentary skills
I'm a gold plated man monkey full of dollar bills
you've been standing there, blocking my view
don't be scared by me or me, and don't be like the sun
(because the sun doesn't really exist, it's an illusion
that's why you shouldn't be like the sun,
because if you are, you don't exist
and I don't associate with people who don't exist)

It's interesting how many lines in this song reference LG15.

"Science was a masquerade, meant to sell you lemonade"

Her father is seen holding a lab coat... and she uses a lemon with "dad" written on it to make lemonade...

"gold plated man monkey"

Well... it is PURPLE monkey, but close enough.

"Don't be fooled by gravity"

Proving science wrong, perhaps?

"I'm trapped inside, a cage, it isn't even locked."

She's almost never allowed to leave her house, but she can leave through that magical tree.

All well, maybe I'm just strecthing for meaning because I'm a huge Lemon Demon fan.

I will admit to overplaying that song for about a week after the vid came out.

I loves me some Lemon Demon.

I know that this is an old thread, but... YAAAAAAAAAY!

Lemon Demon is awesome! I've known about 'em for about three years, and there music is definitly growing. I've actually met Neil a few times before. He's a great guy. It's not a suprise that his fame is growing.

And "Don't be like the Sun" is a classic.

I love Lemon Demon. The song that's been playing on repeat on my iPod for a really long time is Word Disassociation. Makes me lol so much!

I love Lemon Demon.
I was excited when I heard the song on the video because it's one of my favorites.
