No Picture albert Rhythm Player	#1 by albert casualtie at Sep 28, 2007 at 10:04 PM EST
	it would be pretty sweet if this song was actually about invincible (the superhero), though it would not have made sense at all. what with the whole lights in eyes thing.

No Picture Jay Dizzle Wanna Be	#2 by Jay Dizzle holden at Sep 30, 2007 at 7:51 AM EST
	I LOVE this song! So much energy, and it never gets old. On one level, you could say its about some superhero saving the Earth or whatever. Or you could be like me and think its about a girl (or guy) who, despite her cruelty, is capable of being a good person. It's almost like the person admires this girl and wishes she was more of a good person. But what do I know.

No Picture Doolittle Lead Player	#3 by Doolittle at Sep 30, 2007 at 2:22 PM EST
	When they finally come to destroy the Earth They'll have to go through you first I bet they won't be expecting that When they finally come, how will you handle them? Will you devastate them deliberately? 'Cause I'm gonna guess they won't be prepared for the Thousand-Fahrenheit-hot little lights behind your eyes this song is about my mom

No Picture Michael Average	#4 by Michael Vanderveen at Oct 1, 2007 at 7:02 PM EST
	''Thousand-Fahrenheit-hot metal lights behind your eyes'' I think he's talking about the mind of someone who broke his heart. Quick, sharp, witty, and cruel. ''You're invincible'' Nobody can hurt her cause she never feels. "Gonna decimate them like you did to me'' ''Will you devastate them deliberately'' She said something so cruel and heartless it could have only been said on purpose. ''Please use your powers for good'' He's begging her that instead of using her Razor-sharp tongue to cut people down. Use her quick wit to build them up. Use it to embrace.

No Picture †grave† Lead Player	#5 by †grave† f at Oct 3, 2007 at 8:18 PM EST
	Based on the fact that nearly all OK Go's songs are whining about women I would guess this is saying that some women destroyed him mentally "Gonna decimate them like you did to me?" and he is casically using that as a metaphor for how powerful she is. saying she is so strong she could actually destroy alien invaders.

No Picture Colin Wanna Be	#6 by Colin Gauld at Oct 4, 2007 at 9:53 PM EST
	Definately about a girl who breaks hearts, who's own heart cannot be melted because she's horrible! Hehe, I love how playful Ok Go is. I think some of the lyrics are off by the way. Isn't it: "Thousand-Fahrenheit-hot metal lights behind your eyes" and "That crushing, crashing, atom-smashing white-hot fate"?

No Picture Julian Average	#7 by Julian . at Oct 6, 2007 at 2:56 AM EST
	I think this dude's talking about his penis. Seriously. Well, it's fun to look at it that way. I mean, it IS fun to sing a song about your strange yet incredible faith in your private parts. Much more to think that they're actually invincible. Though the song won't probably mea much, hehe, I think it would be so colorful that way and me loves it. And I don't think I need to further explain on that.

No Picture Dudevill Average	#9 by Dudevill at Oct 13, 2007 at 3:46 AM EST
	kay i agree with KesterSmith, I think its about a girl that fucked one of them over. They make her sound like a superhero almost so it shows how bad he was hurt and in the part When they finally come to destroy the Earth They'll have to deal with you first And, now, my money says they won't know about the Thousand-Fahrenheit-hot little lights behind your eyes he brings his pitch up at the 'Thousand-Fahrenheit-hot little lights behind your eyes' part, which makes me think you wouldnt expect her to be so brutal and hurt, so he was surprised by the heart break

No Picture mike Rhythm Player	#10 by mike jordan at Oct 13, 2007 at 7:45 AM EST
	and the eyes could be the death stare that you get sometimes when you say something stupid...

No Picture nate Average	#11 by nate eastman at Oct 13, 2007 at 11:46 PM EST
	im guessing its about super man (Thousand-Fahrenheit-hot little lights behind your eyes as in laser eyes)

No Picture MysticCat Wanna Be	#12 by MysticCat (Janis johnny Udodovs) at Oct 14, 2007 at 2:22 AM EST
	this song sounds like another band, but i cant quite put my finger on which other band lol

No Picture patrick Wanna Be	#13 by patrick at Oct 15, 2007 at 11:22 AM EST
	The song rocks, but the video...IS THE SICKEST THING EVER!!!! I mean, what could be better than random explosions with awesome rock? Seriously.

No Picture Average	#14 by Riqu - at Oct 15, 2007 at 11:37 AM EST
	This is one of those songs to play when you want to pump yourself up for something and raise your confidence level. Makes you feel like nothing can touch you., even if it's not true. That's one of the things I miss most about childhood--that fearlessness and feeling like you're invincible.

	yeah me too
