Flaming Lips to release a 24 hour song, released in a skull

That some things The Flaming Lips do on the surface seems flaming bonkers is nothing news. The new idea of the Wayne Coyne led band is to record a song that lasts 24 hours, which, talking in earthly terms, is about a day. The song will know a limited release of five, and this is probably because it will be packaged in a human skull. The skull will get inserted into him a hard drive with the 24 hour song on it. It will cost you about $5000.

Picking the right skull for this endeavour was quite the undertaking, because how does one fit a 24 hour song into a skull? Some opted it was a memory issue and the brain that particular skull was attached to had to have a good memory to store a 24 hour song. Otherwise it would forget and suddenly it would stop playing halfway through and start singing Mary Had A Little Lamb. No no, said Morty Steinbeck, it is about size. Storage is about size, not about memory, so we need a large skull. Are you suggesting, Ketih von Sondow replied, that we should just take any old skull as long as it is big enough? Could we, if it is all the same to you, just take a monkey’s skull? Think of the legal implications of that! All the animal rights movements protesting.

Von Sydow had always hated Steinbeck’s guts, ever since he published a paper on Storage in New York and How to not Pay for it for Days, before he had finished his own publication. Not only that, Steinbeck actually got subsidized whereas Von Sydow had to labour while being on a payroll, and when picking up his puppy beagle he had to get the one with a limp because mere minutes before a man with dark hair, a bowler hat, a tweed jacket, and a slight twitch had come in and taken away the one beagle puppy with four even legs. Von Sydow did get a discount after frightening the old lady seller by throwing his hands up in the air and screaming STEEEINNBECCK for a good ten minutes. On the insinuation that he would as easily use a monkey’s skull Steinbeck retorted, Why, of course not, otherwise there would be nothing averse to be using yours, and everyone perfectly understands that that should never happen. Von Sydow, after a slight growl, lunged towards Steinbeck, decapitated him, and in a money saving move they decided to use Steinbeck’s skull, and everyone was content that the matter had been solved so easily and with such limited bloodshed.
