about

"In lockdown we’ve really enjoying playing music together, figuring out how to play some of our favourite tracks. The Flaming Lips and this song in particular has always been a massive influence on us. It was fun to take a few hours in our front room and try our own version. I encourage you to find their live version on YouTube from Summer Sonic ’09 as it’s 13 minutes and 19 seconds of ferocious bliss." - Ryan

lyrics

Two scientists are racing
For the good of all mankind
Both of them side-by-side
So determined

Locked in heated battle
For the cure that is their prize
But it's so dangerous
But they're determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children

Upwards to the vanguard
Where the pressure is too high
Under the microscope
Hope against hope

Forging for the future
But to sacrifice their lives
Both of them side-by-side
So determined

Theirs is to win
If it kills them
They're just humans
With wives and children
