Flex is the second studio album by English-American singer-songwriter Lene Lovich, released in January 1980 by Stiff Records.

The album is produced by Lovich and Les Chappell with additional production by Roger Bechirian and Alan Winstanley.

The cover sleeve depicts Lovich wearing a wedding dress and playing with hockey pucks on a string.

It caused controversy and few members of the Baptist church tried to get the album banned in the United States, saying it depicted an act of witchcraft.

[6] After the release of her successful debut album Stateless in 1978, Lovich embarked on the Be Stiff '78 tour along with four other artists from the recording label.

Described as Lovich's more introverted album, Flex deals with subjects that include more of emotional and mental activity, and are often inspired by dream images.

In "Egghead", Lovich sings about people constantly learning a lot of facts, but not understanding life and practical things.

"Monkey Talk" was allegedly inspired by two books, one by Charles Darwin and Planet of the Apes by Pierre Boulle.
