{singing} Aaaaah
Tropical lazor beams
Lazor beams of love
Tropical lima beans
When you're away it's like a void
I try to avoid it
Every time you're away
I put my lazors on stun! Because I gotta stun you
Just to get my point through!
Lazor beams!
Lazor beams!
Pretty please!
With the lazor beams!
Aaaah
Tropical lazor beams
Lazor beams of love
Tropical lima beans

Fun Facts

• Flans is noted as being on guitar, holds his guitar in the background but never actually plays guitar. Instead, he only plays the shaker.
• The video kind of "skips" between the lines "Tropical lima bean" and "When you're away when you're away it's like void", perhaps due to editing.
• The song sounds very similar to the TMBG song "Sapphire Bullets of Pure Love."
