Do away with people blowing my mind
Do away with people wasting my precious time Take me to a simple place Where I can easily see my face Baby, baby I can see that you're fine Know I love you baby, yes I do Know I love you baby, yes I do Do away with people laughing at my hair Do away with people climbing on my precious prayers Take me to a circus tent Where I can easily pay my rent And all the other freaks can share my cares Know I love you baby, yes I do Know I love you baby, yes I do Do away with things that come on obscene Like hot rods real clean real fine nicotine Sometimes the price is 65 dollars Prices like that make a grown man holler 'specially when it's sold by a kid that's only 15 Know I love you baby, yes I do Know I love you baby, yes I do 3/5's of a mile in 10 seconds... |

Her neon mouth with a bleeding talk smile
Is nothing but electric sign You could say she has an individual style She's a part of a colorful time Super-sealed lady, chrome-color clothes You wear 'cause you have no other But I suppose no one knows You're my plastic fantastic lover Your rattlin' cough never shuts off Is nothing but a used machine Your aluminum finish, slightly diminished Is the best I've ever seen Cosmetic baby, plug into me And never, ever find another And I realize no one's wise To my plastic fantastic lover The electrical dust is starting to rust Her trapezoid thermometer taste All the red tape is mechanical rape Of the TV program waste Data control and IBM Science is mankind's brother But all I see is draining me On my plastic fantastic lover |

I want to go to the stars
I want to go to the stars I want to go for the morning star She woke from a start from a dream of stars Let's talk about metaphysics she sighed in her bvd's She didn't need comfort just some verbal intercourse A dance around the intelligence tree Where was the light before it came here? Who held the power to begin the spin? What is in store? what am I here for? Is it love? is it war? is there more? There she stands at my mind again The age of poetry had begun Wasn't that a time for love? Wasn't that a time for imagination? Wasn't that a time for the light? Go out and stuff the universe into your eyes Out together on the streets At the barricades or in the sheets What a scintillating bitch with her eyes on the light "let's go to hell together" in her eyes Why do we remember the past and not the future? What's inside a black hole? what is the nature of the universe? How does it work? which way is west in space? Is there sex in heaven? is it the best? Connect me with my intellect, she lied You can't hide the sexual drive Friction makes sparks, sparks make fire Fire makes heat and the heat will endure 'til the Animal comes with a ferocity not unlike You and me in the throes of poetry A lover's eye can stare an eagle blind A lover's ear can hear the lowest sound A lover's lip taste like the dream I know you like it on top don't stop Wasn't that a time for the light? Wasn't that a time for bright ideas? Wasn't that a time for love and danger? Go out and stuff the universe into your eyes The only answer that I have found Above the sky or below the ground Is that there are no answers There never were any answers There will never be any answers And as gertrude stein said, "that's the answer" I'm not afraid of the future I'm not afraid of ideas I'm not afraid to shake the foundation Of the wonder years These are visions of tomorrow These are visions of the strength of ideas Like matter and energy, ideas shape the sky Of the future years In my world, there are no hungry children In my world, love is true In my world, teachers get paid more than baseball players In my world, there is you, but In the real world, people get hungry In the real world, people need love In the real world, people need food and light and ideas and hope and love and a soothing human touch Just like they're Standing in the presence of god Standing in the halls of imagination Every boy a lion, every girl a tiger It just takes a moment to step through the fire Adventure beckons from above The age of poetry begins again with love Isn't this a time for the light? Isn't this a time for imagination? Isn't this a time for great new ideas? Go out and stuff the universe into your eyes Isn't this a time for love? Isn't this a time to shake the foundations? I know you like it on top, don't stop Isn't this a time for the light I am not afraid of the futr' |

Oh what can I tell you now, Caroline
Should I hurt your feelings or keep on lyin'? One thing leads to another and another And another and another besides You always know whenever I wanna make love And you always know all the changes I'm going through Just as if you can read my mind Caroline, you know everything I do There just ain't no words to describe How I feel inside for you. Yet somewhere out there Waitin' on a wonder You'll lend wings to my words Somewhere when the band is gone And the music of my song Is just right for lovers. You're what I want more than anything else I love you - yes I do - but I know when I'm all by myself Nothin' is real but my feelings and desires for you And everything looks like some sort of scenery Stored in an empty theatre With stars on the ground - fences in the sky And tears in the curtain of time Oh what can I tell you, my Caroline. Except yet somewhere out there Waitin' on a wonder You'll lend wings to my words Somewhere when the band is gone And the music of my song Is just right for lovers. Caroline, your lovin' keeps me rollin' Rollin' all the time, rollin' all the time Baby - somewhere out there You really roll me Roll me away Baby - somewhere out there You roll me, roll me away. And when the melody makes me surrender Dark eyed girl, I always remember That you love me somewhere out there You really love me in time to the music How you love me wildly in my heart Girl, you love me You roll me away. You always fill my heart with wonder You always fill my soul with love You always fill my lips with kisses You always fill my eyes with tears. It's like a wind from the other side of the world Like a far off pack of hounds Sounds like a whole universe - throbbin' with life I get so hypnotized in the lights Just like the gaze of a mantis Why even Atlantis sank beneath The waves in a day and a night Oh, in a day and a night I could write You a symphony It would be just like a bird And carry my love over the mountains. Cause somewhere out there Waitin' on a wonder You'll lend wings to my words Somewhere when the band is gone And the music of my song Is just right for lovers. You always fill my heart with wonder You always fill my soul with love You always fill my lips with kisses You always fill my eyes with tears. Cry Caroline. |

I want to ride the tiger
I want to ride the tiger It will be black and white in the dead of night Eyes flashing in the clear moonlight I want to ride the tiger. It's like a tear in the hands of a western man Tell you about salt, carbon and water But a tear to a chinese man He'll tell you about sadness and sorrow or the love of a man and a woman. I want to ride the tiger I want to sail through the risin' sun for you and you We got something to learn from the other side Something to give, we got nothing to hide I want to ride the tiger. Black wants out of the streets Yellow wants the country Red wants the country back And white wants out of this world Sing - sing to the sky I want to ride the tiger I want to ride the tiger. Look to the summer of seventy-five All the world is gonna come alive Do you want to ride the tiger? It's like a tear in the hands of a western man Tell you about salt, carbon and water But a tear to an oriental man He'll tell you about sadness and sorrow or the love of a man and a woman. |
