	* The word “pseudo” is mispronounced in the version released on [[Hip To The Javabean]]. Although this was unintentional and [[Neil]] has endured many attempts to correct himself, the mistake seems to have become part of the song, as he still pronounces it that way when he performs Telekinesis live, such as at [[Lemonic Demonade]].		*The word “pseudo” is mispronounced in the version released on [[Hip To The Javabean]].

'''Telekinesis''' is the sixth track on [[Hip to the Javabean]]

==Lyrics==
<nowiki> Nobody knows my true identity
For all we know, I'm John F. Kennedy's
Love child with Nosferatu
We can't know but still we got to
Nobody knows how deep this mystery goes
But ancient caveman history shows
We're all descended from
The same evil alien slime

And it's a pretty shade of grey
It makes the woodwork eat away
Glass breaks and cow's milk curdles
It glows in the dark and it mutates turtles

Somebody told me something interesting
They told me the world is always tempesting
'Round and around again
I've had enough of that pseudo-zen
Somebody else was watching from afar
Screwing it up like a broken VCR
She thought that I was
Very insincere because...

I rolled my eyes a bit too much
Am I really that out of touch?
Why should I care about this?
I'm not concerned with the things I miss

I don't see the point in not believing in
Things you can taste like fear and cinnamon
Sadly this hasn't gotten me
Anything but dread and gluttony
Under the ground is where I wanna go
Surely there is a way but I dunno
How to get there
No one seems to know actually, so

I tried to use a garden spade
But it was very poorly made
*Bang* It broke into so many pieces
It's times like these that I wish I had...
