I remember downloading a copy of King Missile's Detachable Penis incorrectly credited to The Flaming Lips. Like ... I must've known it wasn't them, but it sat on my Flaming Lips playlist for years and I just assumed it was something from their earlier, weirder 80's days.

I remember talking about this on a message board once before and like 3 other people chimed in with this exact same song, apparently it was a bit of a thing. Probably just one person's mistake, but the internet felt a lot smaller back then and it's not surprising it would've propagated like that.
