Applied Science Lyrics

Nod your head to this, as a lot of apprentice
Some of this were standing on the shoulder of giants
Some tyrants, some benevolent
To the followers, it's relevant
The rest get bent on lending opinions
I'm sending to a brand new level
I revel in completion, I like to see deletion
Of the parasites to make the load light
Fools know rules, but the rest keep bouncing back
With the lack of further adieu, see
As one can deduce, we kick out the jams
Slam the shit out hard and long
'Cause we got more song, dig it, check it

Something you might like now
All-star bound
Yeah, you're so sound
Cool as the blue water all around
From a force field flashing
Aliens are sending
Black evolutions of love you are hearing
The dark supernatural is the world we call
Our own home lightning in the mind comes out in song
But we're wild, they say, "never trust us, we're shady"
In lieu of the crew you're into, we are, baby
'Cause music will be coming out the words we speak
We erect break beats shatter, wax still on the platter
Our shit is badder, we come, fly, then we scatter
'Cause we deep and we solid, yeah, we hear ya holler

Electricity running through is all that feels good
Sometimes the only thing that really ever could
Feed, that hunger, I crave it
I love it, I gave it
I shove it in a battery and save it for later
A waiter in the Dorothy C. Pavilion in '89
I met some weirdoes and had myself a real good time
Downtown L.A. is a soul graveyard
Where you got to be hard or get jacked
It lacked a certain sense of something
Something basic, no karma in he least I broke east
You know I had to face it
I guess I flaked but it was no mistake because 311's got the boom

My mike check is giving me Electric Company
I can't see the high wide sky or stars above me
Are you a flower, or more like a high rise tower?
If so, the soul of sweet delight on you will shower
There's a place for us they say is somewhere
Not a dream, but a place and you will be there
You're slippin', but content because your spirit And hills are alive,
With the sound of music
People never see the whole trip of life
Grab knowledge, man, and all you do is syph

Applied Science

This is performed at every 311 concert. In the middle, drums are brought out for each member of the band and they play together. This is not done on the CD version of the song. (thanks, Jules - W. Bloomfield, MI)

Charlie Sexton's drum break splits the song on the recorded version. "We were just letting the creativity flow. We still felt like, at that point, that we had no rules," Sexton recalled on the band's website "We're not trying to make a hit. We're not trying to please anybody. We're trying to make the coolest type of creation and see what happens."
