"Mutilated Lips" is a song by American rock band Ween. It was released as the lead single from their sixth studio album, The Mollusk (1997), on June 24, 1997.

Composition

The song lyrics refer to being under the influence of psychedelic drugs. It explains that such drugs distort an unattractive girl into appearing to have mutilated lips. [1] The song's inclusion of acoustic guitar, bongos, synths, and keyboards were said to give the song a "psych-folk trippiness". [2] The lyrics also make reference to the Ethiopian emperor Haile Selassie I.[ citation needed]

In other media

The lyrics "Mutilated lips give a kiss on the wrist of the worm like tips of tentacles expanding" was directly referenced in the novel The Procession of Mollusks (2009) by Eric E. Olson. [3] The girl from "Mutilated Lips" was also a character in the novel. [3]
