If there's one thing we can count on from a Flaming Lips video, it's a little nudity, and the Oklahoman odd-pop outfit have certainly come through on their new NSFW video for The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends cut "The First Time I Ever Saw Your Face."
While the group's spacey take on the standard features some ethereal vocal work from Erykah Badu, the George Salisbury-directed clip actually stars the soul singer's sister, Nayrok (Erykah confirmed this via Twitter earlier this week).
In the vid, Nayrok slyly and seductively lip-synchs the lyrics from a bathtub, alternately getting covered in glitter, blood and a thick, sticky concoction we're hoping is a mix of Pillsbury toaster strudel icing sugar and Elmer's Glue. As she steps out of the bath to slap the toppings off her butt, band leader Wayne Coyne waves a silver flag around.
You can check out the trance-inducing, slow-motion clip below.
As reported earlier this week, The Flaming Lips and Heady Fwends is getting a wide release June 26 through Warner Bros.
