#Hey, Joe,

#You know I caught her messin’ ’round with another man.
#Yeah, I’m goin’ down to shoot my old lady.
#You know I caught her messin’ ’round with another man.
#Huh, and that ain’t too cool.”
#
#“Hey, Joe,
#I heard you shot your woman down,
#You shot her down, now.
#Hey, Joe,
#I heard you shot your old lady down,
#shot her down to the ground.”
#
#“Yes I did, I shot her.
#You know I caught her messin’ ’round, messin’ ’round town.
#Yes I did, I shot her.
#You know I caught my old lady messin’ ’round town,
#And I gave her the gun.
#I shot her.”

#Where you gonna run to now?
#Where you gonna run to?
#Hey, Joe, I said,
#Where you gonna run to now?
#Where you . . . where you gonna go?”
#
#“Well, dig,
#I’m goin’ way down south,
#Way down to Mexico way.
#Alright!
#I’m goin’ way down south,
#Way down where I can be free.
#Ain’t no one gonna find me.
#Ain’t no hangman gonna,
#He ain’t gonna put a rope around me
#You better believe it right now! I gotta go now.”

#“Hey, hey Joe,
#You better run on down
#Goodbye everybody . . .”

#
#STONE FREE
#
#
#Every day in the week
#I’m in a different city.
#But if I stay too long
#People try to pull me down.
#They talk about me like a dog
#Talk about the clothes I wear
#But they don’t realise
#They’re the ones who’s square.
#Hey, that’s why,
#you can’t hold me down.
#I don’t wanna be down.
#I gotta move on, oh
#Stone free to do what I please.
#Stone free to ride the breeze?
#Stone free - I can’t stay.
#I gotta, gotta, gotta get away, man
#Yeah, alright
#
#Listen to this baby!
#A woman here, a woman there
#Try to keep me in a plastic cage
#But they don’t realise
#It’s so easy to break.
#Oh, but sometimes I feel, hah
#I feel my heart kind of running hot.
#That’s when I gotta move
#Before I get caught.
#Hey, that’s why
#Listen to me baby!
#You can’t hold me down
#I don’t wanna be tied down
#I gotta be free, oh
#I said “Stone free to do what I please,
#Stone free to ride the breeth,
#Stone free - I can’t stay
#I gottta, gotta, gotta get away, yeah”
#Turn me lose baby . . .
#
#Yeah, oh
#
#Yeah, stone free to ride the breeze
#Stone free, to do what I please.
#Stone free - I can’t stay.
#Stone free - I gotta gotta get away.
#Stone free - I’m stone free right now.
#Stone free - don’t try to hold me back.

#PURPLE HAZE
#
#Purple Haze all in my brain
#Lately things just don’t seem the same
#Actin’ funny, but I don’t know why
#’Scuse me while I kiss the sky.
#
#Purple Haze all around
#Don’t know if I’m coming up or down
#Am I happy or in misery?
#Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me!
#Help me, help me . . .
#
#Yeah, Purple Haze all in my eyes
#Don’t know if it’s day or night
#You got me blowin’, blowin’ my mind
#Is it tomorrow or just the end of time?
#No, help me, oh . . .
#Yeah, Purple Haze . . .
#Oh, no, no
#Oh help me, tell me, tell me
#I can’t go on like this.
#You’re making me blow my mind.
#Oh, no, no . . .
#

#
#
#51ST ANNIVERSARY
#
#For fifty years they’ve been married
#They can’t wait for their fifty first
#To roll around, yeah, roll around.
#For thirty years they’ve been married
#And now they’re old and happy
#And they settle down, ha ha
#Settle down, yeah.
#For twenty years they’ve been married
#And they did everything that could be done
#You know, they have their fun.
#
#And then you come along and talk about it:
#“So you, you say you wanna be married,
#I’m gonna change your mind.
#Oh, gotta change it.”
#That was the good side baby
#Here comes the best side.
#For ten years they’ve been married
#A thousand kids went around homeless
#‘Cause their Mom was a louse
#Daddy’s down at the wiskey house.
#That ain’t all,
#For three years they’ve been married
#They don’t get along so good,
#They’re tired of each other.
#You know how that goes,
#She got another lover.
#Hah, same old thing.
#So now you’re seventeen
#You run around hangin’ out
#And having your fun
#Life for you has just begun baby.
#
#And then you come sayin’:
#“So you, you say you wanna be married.
#Oh, baby, tryin’ to put me on a chain
#Ain’t that some shame?
#You must be losin’ your weak little mind.
#I ain’t ready to get married,
#I ain’t ready.
#I’m gonna change your mind.
#Ooh, look out baby.
#Auh, I ain’t ready to get tied down
#I ain’t ready, I ain’t ready now
#Let me live a little while longer
#Let me live, let me live a little while longer
#So I can finish talking,
#Let me get back to my groooove . . .

#
#THE WIND CRIES MARY
#
#After all the jacks are in their boxes
#And the clowns have all gone to bed
#You can hear happiness
#Staggering on down street
#Footprints dressed in red
#And the wind whispers Mary
#
#A broom is drearily sweeping
#Up the broken pieces of yesterday’s life
#Somewhere a Queen is weeping
#Somewhere a King has no wife
#And the wind it cries Mary
#
#The traffic lights they turn blue tomorrow
#And shine their emptiness down on my bed
#The tiny island sags downstream
#‘Cause the life they’d lived is dead
#And the wind screams Mary
#
#Will the wind ever remember
#The names it has blown in the past
#And with this crutch, its old age and its wisdom
#It whispers “No, this will be the last”
#And the wind cries Mary.
#
#
#
#
#HIGHWAY CHILE
#
#Yeah . . .
#His guitar slung across his back.
#His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
#Flamin’ hair just a-blowin’ in the wind.
#Ain’t seen a bed in so long it’s a sin.
#He left home when he was seventeen.
#The rest of the world he went on to see.
#And everybody knows, boss,
#A rolling stone gathers no moss.
#Now you’d probably call him a tramp,
#But it goes a little deeper than that
#He’s a Highway Chile.
#Yeah!
#
#Now some people say
#He had a girl that moaned.
#Who messed around and did him pretty wrong.
#They tell me it gotta hurt him bad.
#Gotta made him feel pretty sad.
#I couldn’t say what went through his mind (not sure about the lirics!!!!)
#Anyway, he left the world behind
#And everybody knows the same old story
#In another war you can loose your glory (not sure about the lirics!!!!)
#Now you probably call him a tramp,
#But I know it goes a little deeper than that
#He’s a Highway Chile.
#Walk on brother!
#Yeah!
#
#His old guitar slung across his back
#His dusty boots is his Cadillac.
#Flamin’ hair just a-blowin’ in the wind.
#Ain’t seen a bed in so long it’s a sin.
#Now you may call him a tramp,
#But I know it goes a little deeper than that
#He’s a Highway Chile.
#Walk on brother!
#Don’t let no one stop you!
#Highway Chile!
#Yeah, yeah, yeah . . .
#Highway Chile!
#Rollin’ stone!
#Go on down the highway!
#Highway Chile!
#Yeah, yeah . . .
#Highway Chile!

#Will I live tomorrow?
#Well, I just can’t say.

#No sun coming trough my windows.
#Feel like I’m living at the bottom of a grave.
#No sun coming through my windows.
#Feel like I’m living at the bottom of a grave.

#Waterfall, nothing can harm me at all.
#My worries seem so very small
#With my waterfall.
#I can see my rainbow calling me
#Through the misty breeze of my waterfall.
#
#Some people say ‘day dreaming is for all the lazy minded fools
#with nothing else to do’
#So let them laugh, laugh at me
#So just as long as I have you
#To see me through, I have nothing to lose
#Long as I have you.

#Waterfall,
#Don’t ever change your ways.
#Fall with me for million days,
#Oh, my waterfall.

I have only one itching desire,
Let me stand next to your fire
[Let me stand next to your fire] Yeah, let me stand next to your fire
[Let me stand next to your fire] Let me stand
[Let me stand next to your fire] Oh, Let me stand

Now dig this!

You try to give me your money,

I have only one burning desire,

[Let me stand next to your fire] Let me stand baby
[Let me stand next to your fire] I ain’t gonna do you no harm
[Let me stand next to your fire] Oh

I ain’t gonna hurt you baby . . .




THIRD STONE FROM THE SUN

{intro slowed down talking}
Star fleet to scout ship, please give your position. Over.
I'm in orbit around the third planet from the star called
the sun. Over.
You mean its the Earth? Over.
Positive. It is known to have some form of intelligent species. Over.
I think we should take a look.
{intro slowed down talking ends}

Strange beautiful grass of green,
with your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine?

{start slowed down}
Strange beautiful, grass of green
with your majestic silver seas
Your mysterious mountains I wish to see closer
May I land my kinky machine?
{end slowed down}

Although your world wonders me,
with your majestic and superior cackling hen
Your people I do not understand,
so to you I shall put an end
And you'll
never hear
surf music again

{start slowed down...rough guess at lyrics}
Secret
Oh, secret
Oh
Shhhh...
{end slowwed down}




REMEMBER

Oh, remember the mocking bird, my baby bun.
He used to sing for his supper, baby.
Yes, he used to sing for his dinner, baby,
he used to sing so sweet,
But since my baby left me he ain’t sang a tune all day.

Oh, remember the bluebirds and the honey bees,
They used to sing for the sunshine.
Yes, they used to sing for the honey, baby,
they used to sing so sweet
But since my baby left me they ain’t sang a tune all day.

Hey, pretty baby, come on back to me
Make everybody happy as can be, yeah

So baby, if you’ll please come home again
You know I’ll kiss you for my supper, yeah.
You know I’ll kiss you for my dinner, baby, now.
But if you don’t come back you know I’ll have to starve to death
‘cos I ain’t had a kiss all day now, all day.

Please, remember,
got to remember, yeah,
got to remember, oh Lord.
Come on back, come back in my arms,
I’ll make everything that better.
Let me tell ya now.
Can’t you here me call you, baby, now?
Come on, baby, stop jiving around.
Hurry home, hurry home.




ARE YOU EXPERIENCED?

If you can just get your mind together
Then come on across to me
We’ll hold hands and then we’ll watch the sun rise
From the bottom of the sea
But first, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have.
I know, I know you’ll probably scream and cry
That your little world won’t let you go
But who in your measly little world
Are you trying to prove that
You’re made out of gold and eh can’t be sold
So, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well I have . . .

Trumpets and violins I can hear in the distance
I think they’re calling our names
Maybe now you can’t hear them, but you will (ha ha)
If you just take hold of my hand
Oh, but are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Not necessarily stoned, but beautiful.




“AXIS: BOLD AS LOVE”




UP FROM THE SKIES

I just want to talk to you
I won’t do you no harm
I just want to know about your different lives
on this here people farm
I heard some of you got your families
living in cages tall and cold
And some just stay there and dust away
past the age of old
Is this true?
Please let me talk to you
I just want to know about the rooms behind your minds
Do I see a vacuum there
Or am I going blind?
Or is it just the remains
from vibrations and echoes long ago
Things like “Love the World”
and “Let your fancy flow”
Is this true?
Please let me talk to you
Let me talk to you
I have lived here before
the days of ice
And of course this is why
I’m so concerned
And I come back to find
the stars misplaced
And the smell of a world that has burned
The smell of a world that has burned
Yeah, well, maybe, maybe it’s just a change of climate
Oh I can dig it,
I can dig it baby
I just wanna see.

So where do I purchase my ticket?
I’d just like to have a ringside seat
I wanna know about the new Mother Earth
I wanna hear and see everything
I wanna hear and see everything
I wanna hear and see everything . . .
Yeah!
Ah shucks,
If my daddy could see me now.




SPANISH CASTLE MAGIC

It’s very far away
It takes about a half a day to get there
If we travel by my dragonfly
No it’s not in Spain
But all the same you know
It has a groovy name
And the wind’s just right HEY!
Hang on my darling
Hang on if you wanna go
You know it’s a groovy (not sure about the lirics!!!!)
It’s just a little bit of
Spanish Castle Magic

The clouds are really low
And they overflow
The cotton candy and battlegrounds
Red and drown
But it’s all in your mind
Don’t think your time
On bad things
Just float your little mind around
LOOK OUT!
Hang on my darling
Hang on if you wanna go
It’s just a little bit of
Spanish Castle Magic
It’s all in your mind

Hang on my darling
Hang on, hang on if you wanna go
It’s just a little bit of
Spanish Castle Magic
A little bit of
Spanish Castle Magic
It’s all in your mind
A little bit of daydreamin’ here and there
Everything’s gonna be alright




WAIT UNTIL TOMORROW

Well, I’m standing here freezing inside your golden garden
I got my ladder leaned up against your wall
Tonight’s the night we plan to run away together
Come on Dolly Mae, there’s no time to stall
But now you’re telling me that ah . . .
I think we better wait till tomorrow

Oh, Dolly Mae, girl you must be insane
So unsure of yourself leaning from your unsure window pane.
Do I see a silhouette of somebody pointing something from a tree
CLICK BANG what a hang
Your daddy just shot poor me
And I hear you say, as I fade away
We don’t have to wait till tomorrow




AIN’T NO TELLING

Well there ain’t no, ain’t no
Ain’t no telling baby
When you will see me again
But I pray it will be tomorrow
Well the sunrise, sunrise
Is burning my eyes babe
Well now I must leave now
But I really hope to see you tomorrow
Well my house (not sure about the lirics!!!!)
The feeling there always (not sure about the lirics!!!!)
Oh Cleopatra, she’s driving me insane
She’s tryin’ to put my body in her brain
So listen, kiss me goodbuy just sort of easily

Ain’t no, ain’t no
Ain’t no telling baby, ain’t no telling baby, ain’t no telling baby
When you’re gonna see me
But I really hope it will be tomorrow
You know what I’m talkin’ about
Anyway, must leave now . . .




LITTLE WING

Well she’s walking through the clouds
With a circus mind that’s running round
Butterflies and zebras
And moonbeams and fairy tales
That’s all she ever thinks about
Riding with the wind.

When I’m sad, she comes to me
With a thousand smiles, she gives to me free
It’s alright she says it’s alright
Take anything you want from me, anything
Anything.

Fly on little wing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, little wing





IF 6 WAS 9

(Yeah)
(Sing a song, brother)
If the sun refused to shine,
I don’t mind, I don’t mind.
(Yeah)
If the mountains fell in the sea,
Let it be, it ain’t me.
Got my own world to live through
And I ain’t gonna copy you.

Now, if 6 turned up to be 9,
I don’t mind, I don’t mind.
If all the hippies cut off their hair,
I don’t care, I don’t care.
Did, ‘cos I got my own world to live through
And I ain’t gonna copy you.

White-collar conservatives flashing down the street
Pointing their plastic finger at me.
They’re hoping soon my kind will drop and die,
But I’m gonna wave my freak flag high . . . HIGH!

Hah, hah
Falling mountains just don’t fall on me
Point on mister Buisnessman,
You can’t dress like me.
Nobody know what I’m talking about
I’ve got my own life to live
I’m the one that’s gonna have to die
when it’s time for me to die
So let me live my life the way I want to.

Yeah . . .
Sing on brother,
Play on brother . . .




CASTLES MADE OF SAND

Down the street you can hear her scream ‘you’re a discrace’,
as she slams the door in his drunken face
And now he stands outside and all the neighbours start to gossip
and drool
He cries ‘oh girl, you must be mad, what happened to the sweet
love you and me had?’
Against the door he leans and starts a scene, and his tears
fall and burn the garden green

And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually

A little Indian brave,
who before he was ten played war games in the woods with his
Indian friends
And he built a dream that when he grew up he would be a
fearless warrior Indian Chief
Many moons passed and more the dream grew strong,
until tomorrow he would sing his first war song and fight his first battle
But something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep
that night

And so castles made of sand, melts into the sea, eventually

There was a young girl, whose heart was a frown
‘cause she was crippled for life, and she couldn’t speak a sound
And she wished and prayed she could stop living, so she decided to die
She drew her wheel chair to the edge of the shore,
and to her legs she smiled ‘you won’t hurt me no more’
But then a sight she’d never seen made her jump and say,
‘Look, a golden winged ship is passing my way’
And it really didn’t have to stop, it just kept on going

And so castles made of sand, slips into the sea, eventually




ONE RAINY WISH

Gold and rose, the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago.
Misty blue and lilac too,
Never to grow old.
There you were under the tree of song,
Sleeping so peacefully.
In your hand a flower played,
Waiting there for me.

I have never laid eyes on you,
Not before this timeless day.
But you woke and you smiled my name,
And you stole my heart away . . . stole my heart away.

Gold and rose, the color of the dream I had
Not too long ago.
Misty blue and lilac too,
Never to grow old.
Gold and rose, the color of the dream I had.
Misty blue and lilac too.
Gold and rose, the color of the dream I had.
Misty blue and lilac too.
Gold and rose, gold and rose, gold and rose . . .

It’s only a dream, but I’d love to tell somebody about this dream.
The sky was filled with a thousand stars,
While the sun kissed the mountains blue.
And eleven moons played across the rainbows
Above me and you.
Gold and rose, the color of the velvet walls that surrounds us.




LITTLE MISS LOVER

Little Miss Lover
Where have you been in this world for so long?

Excuse me while I see if that gypsy in me is right
If you don’t mind.
Well, he signals me okay
So I think it’s safe to say
I’m gonna make a play




BOLD AS LOVE

Anger he smiles, towering in shiny metallic purple armour
Queen Jealousy, envy waits behind him
Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground
Blue are the life-giving waters taken for granted,
they quietly understand
Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready,
but wonder why the fight is on
But they’re all bold as love, yes, they’re all bold as love
yeah, they’re all bold as love
Just ask the Axis

My red is so confident that he flashes trophies of war and ribbons
of euphoria
Orange is young, full of daring,
but very unsteady for the first go round
My yellow in this case is not so mellow
In fact I’m trying tosay it’s frightened like me
And all these emotions of mine keep holding me from, eh,
giving my life to a rainbow like you
Well I’m eh, yeah, I’m bold as love
Yeah, yeah
Well I’m bold, bold as love (hear me talking, girl)
I’m bold as love
Just ask the Axis (he knows everything)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah

Have you ever been,
Have you ever been to Electric Ladyland?
The magic carpet waits for you,
So don’t you be late.
Oh, I wanna show you different emotions.
I wanna run to the sounds and motions.
Electric woman waits for you and me,
So it’s time we take a ride.
You can cast all your hangups over the side
While we fly right over the love-filled sea.
Look up ahead
I see the love land
Soon you’ll understand.
Make love make love make love make love
I wanna show you (The angels will spread their wings spread their wings)
I wanna show you
Good and evil lay side by side
While electric love penetrates the sky.
I wanna show you . . .

Well the night I was born,
Lord I swear the moon turned a fire red
The night I was born,

and set me on a eagle’s back
(Oh Lord)
Well mountain lions found me there,
and set me on a eagle’s wing

’Cause I’m a Voodoo Chile
Lord knows, I’m a Voodoo Chile
Yeah! . . .




LITTLE MISS STRANGE

No one knows where she comes from,
Maybe she’s a devil in disguise,
I can tell by looking in her eyes.
Little Miss Strange, Little Miss Strange.

Little Miss Strange came into my parlor.
I don’t know just what to ask her,
I don’t remember what we did after.
Little Miss Strange, Little Miss Strange.

Little Miss Strange came out of the darkness,
Walked across my head and stood beneath the lights.
I’m talking ‘bout the dream of the other night.
Strange, Little Miss Strange.




COME ON (LET THE GOOD TIMES ROLL)

People talkin’, but they just don’t know,
What’s in my heart, and why I love you so.
I love you baby like a miner loves gold.
Come on sugar, let the good times roll.
Hey . . .

So many people live in make-believe,
They keep a lot ’a’ going up their sleeves.
But my love baby is no kind that folds.
Come on baby, let the good times roll.
Hey!
Hey baby, let the good times roll.
Oh, let them baby.

A love is nice if it’s understood.
It’s even nicer when you’re feelin’ good.
You got me flippin’ like a flag on a pole.
Come on Sugar, let the good times roll.
Hey, let the good times roll . . .




GYPSY EYES

Well, I realized that I really need those eyes,
I love you Gypsy Eyes,
I love you Gypsy Eyes.
Alright!
Gypsy!
Way up in my tree I’m sitting by my fire,
Wondrin’ where in this world might you be.
And knowin’ all the time you still are roamin’ the countryside.
Do you still think about me?
Oh, my Gypsy . . .

Well I walk right on to your rebel roadside.
The one that rambles on for million miles.
Yes, I walk down this road,
Searching for your love and my soul too.
When I find you, I ain’t gonna let go.

I remember the first time I saw you.
The tears in your eyes look like they was tryin’ to say,
“Oh, little boy, you know I could love you.
But first I must make my getaway.
Two strange men are fighting to death over me today.
I’ll try to meet you by the old highway.
Hey!

Well, I realized that I really need those eyes,
I love you Gypsy Eyes,
I love you Gypsy Eyes,
I love you Gypsy Eyes,
I love you Gypsy Eyes.
Alright!

I’ve been searching so long




BURNING OF THE MIDNIGHT LAMP

The morning is dead and the day is too
There’s nothing left here to lead me, but the velvet moon
All my loneliness I have felt today
It’s a little more than enough to make a man throw himself away
And I continue to burn the Midnight Lamp, alone

Now the smiling portrait of you
is still hanging on my frowning wall
It really doesn’t, it really doesn’t bother me too much at all
It’s just the eh ever falling dust that makes it so hard for me to see
That forgotten earring laying on the floor
Facing coldly towards the door
And I continue to burn the Midnight Lamp, all alone
Burn!
Yeah, yeah
Lonely, lonely, lonely
Loneliness is such a drag!

So here I sit to face that same old fireplace
Getting ready for the same old explosion
Going through my mind
And soon enough the time will tell
About the circus in the wishing well
And someone who will buy and sell for me
Someone who will toll my bell
And I continue to burn the same old lamp, alone
Yeah
Darling, can you hear me calling you?
So lonely
Gotto blow my mind
Yeah, yeah
Lonely, lonely . . .




RAINY DAY, DREAM AWAY

Hey man,
take a look out the window and see what’s happening
Hey man it’s raining!
It’s raining outside man
Oh don’t worry about that brother
Everything’s gonna be OK
We’ll get into something real nice, you know
So just lay back and groove on a rainy day
Yeah...yeah I see what you mean brother,
lay back and groove

Rainy Day, Dream Away,
let the sun take a holiday
Flowers bathe and-eh see the children play
Lay back and groove on a Rainy Day
Well I can see a bunch of wet preachers,
look at them on the run!
The carnival traffic noise,
it sinks to a splashing
Even the ducks can groove,
rain bathing in the parkside pool
And I’m leaning out my window sill digging everything,
and-eh you too!

Rainy day, rain all day
Ain’t no use in gettin’ uptight
Just let it groove its own way
Let it drain your worries away
Lay back and groove on a rainy day (hey)
Lay back and dream on a rainy day




1983. . . (A MERMAN I SHOULD TURN TO BE)

Hurrah, I awake from yesterday
Alive, but the war is here to stay
So my love, Catherina and me,
decide to take our last walk through the noise to the sea
Not to die but to reborn,
away from lands so battered and torn
Forever, forever

Oh say, can you see it’s really such a mess
Every inch of Earth is a fighting nest
Giant pencil and lipstick tube shaped things,
Continue to rain and cause screaming pain
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red
as our feet find the sand,
and the sea is straight ahead, straight up ahead

Well it’s too bad that our friends, can’t be with us today
Well it’s too bad
‘The machine, that we built,
would never save us’, that’s what they say
(That’s why they ain’t coming with us today)
And they also said “it’s impossible for a man to live and breathe under
water, forever”,
was their main complaint
And they also threw this in my face, they said:
“Anyway, you know good and well it would be beyond the will of God,
and the grace of the King” (grace of the King)
(Yeah, yeah)

So my darling and I make love in the sand,
to salute the last moment ever on dry land
Our machine, it has done its work, played its part well
Without a scratch on our bodies and we bid it farewell
Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile
Before our heads go under we take a last look at the killing noise
Of the out of style, the out of style, out of style(oooh)...




MOON, TURN THE TIDES . . . GENTLY GENTLY AWAY

So down and down and down and down and down and down we go
Hurry my darling we mustn’t be late for the show
Neptune champion games to an aqua world is so very dear
‘Right this way!’ smiles a mermaid I can hear Atlantis full of cheer
Atlantis full of cheer, I can hear Atlantis full of cheer




HOUSE BURNING DOWN

Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red
Someone’s house is burning down down down down down down down . . .
Well, I asked my friend, ‘Where is that black smoke coming from?’
He just coughed and changed the subject and said,
‘Oh well, I think it might snow some.’
So I left him sipping his tea,
And I jumped in my chariot and rode off to see
Just why and who could it be this time.
Sisters and brothers, daddies, mothers standing round cryin’.
When I reached the scene the flames were making a gostly whine
So I stood on my horse’s back
And I screamed without a crack
I said: “Oh baby why did you burn your brother’s house down?”
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Someone’s house is burning down down down down
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Someone’s house is burning down down down down down . . .

Well, someone stepped from the croud
He was nineteen miles high
He shouts, “We’re tired and disgusted,
So we paint red through the sky.”
I said, “The truth is straight ahead
So don’t burn yourself instead
Try to learn instead of burn
Hear what I say.”
So I finally rode away
But I’ll never forget that day
’Cause when I reached the valley
I looked down across the way
A giant boat from space landed with eerie grace
And came and taketh all the dead away.
Hey! Hey! Hey! Hey!
What do I say?
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Someone’s house is burning down down down down
Look at the sky turn a hell-fire red, Lord
Someone’s house is burning down down down down
Look at the sky . . .




ALL ALONG THE WATCHTOWER

"There must be some kind of way out of here,"
said the joker to the thief,
"There's too much confusion,
I can't get no relief.
Businessmen they drink my wine,
plowmen dig my earth
None of them along the line know what any of it is worth"

"No reason to get excited,"
the thief, he kindly spoke
"There are many here among us
who feel that life is but a joke
But you and I, we've been through that
and this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late"

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Barefoot servants, too

Outside in the cold distance
A wildcat did growl
Two riders were approaching
And the wind began to howl




VOODOO CHILE (SLIGHT RETURN)

Well, I stand up next to a mountain
and I chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I’ll stand up next to a mountain,
and chop it down with the edge of my hand.
Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island,
might even raise a little sand.
'Cause I'm a Voodoo Chile,
Lord knows I'm a Voodoo Chile, baby.

I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
I'll give it right back to you one of these days.
I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time,
I'll give it right back one of these days.
If I don't meet you no more in this world,
I'll meet you in the next one and don't be late, don't be late.
'Cause I'm a Voodoo Chile, Voodoo Chile,
Lord knows I'm a Voodoo Chile, hey hey hey.
I'm a Voodoo Chile, baby.
And I don’t take “no” for an answer.
Especially “no”.
“VOODOO SOUP”




BELLY BUTTON WINDOW

Well, I’m up here in this womb
I’m looking all around (hmm, hmm, hmm)
Well, I’m looking out my Belly Button Window
And I see a whole lot of frowns
And I’m wondering if they don’t want me around

What seems to be the fuss out there?
Just what seems to be the hang?
’Cause you know if ya just don’t want me this time around,
yeah I’ll be glad to go back to Spirit Land
And even take a longer rest,
before I’m coming down the chute again
Man I sure remember the last time, baby,
they were still hawkin’ about me then
So if you don’t want me now,
make up your mind, where or when
If you don’t want me now,
give or take, you only got two hundred days
’Cause I ain’t coming down this way too much more again

You know they got pills for ills and thrills and even spills,
but I think you’re just a little too late
So I’m coming down into this world, Daddy,
regardless of love and hate
And I’m gonna sit up in your bed, Mama (huh),
and just a-grin right in your face
And then I’m gonna eat up all your choclates (huh),
and say ‘I hope I’m not too late’

So if there’s any questions,
make up your mind
’Cause you better give or take
questions in your mind
Give it a take,
you only got two hundred days

Way up into this womb,
looking all around
Sure’s dark in here!
And I’m looking out my Belly Button Window
And I swear I see nothing but a lot of frowns
And I’m wondering if they want me around . . .




STEPPING STONE

I sure got the blues this morning, baby
Yeah! And I’m here to tell you about it
So you might as well pick up on it!
I’m a man
At least I’m tryin’ to be
I’ve lived before
The other half of me
I’ve lived before
That you don’t want me
But in this search
For nothing desperately
Oh I’m tryin’ tryin’
Not to be a fool
I’m tryin’ tryin’
Lord to keep my cool, baby
tryin’ so hard to keep it together.

After I find, baby
That true love of mine
I’m just rollin’ screamin’
Cryin’ flyin’ Can’t be-
Trusted, but busted Rolling Stone-

You’re a woman
At least you say you are
You’re a woman
At least you look like you are
You’re a woman
At least you taste like you are
But you can take it off
In bed with my guitar
And then you leave them
Throw me outside
To cry, cry
To the moon and the nighttime
Save my soul, You can’t find
All you want is a tiket to ride.
After you show me everything
It did prove otherwise
You just rollin’, screamin’, cryin’
good love is sometime, but can’t be trusted
Steppin’ Stone
Steppin’ Stone
Steppin’ Stone

So I can leave

Yeah!

Right on, straight ahead
Straight up there, straight ahead
Freedom, so I can leave
Freedom, so I can give
Freedom, so I can leave
Freedom . . .




ANGEL

Angel came down from heaven yesterday
She stayed with me just long enough to rescue me
And she told me a story yesterday,
about the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea
And then she spread her wings high over me
She said she’s gonna come back tomorrow
And I said ‘fly on my sweet Angel,
fly on through the sky,
fly on my sweet Angel,
tomorrow I’m gonna be by your side’

Sure enough this morning came unto me
Silver wings silhouetted against the child’s sunrise
And my Angel she said unto me
‘today is the day for you to rise,
take my hand,
you’re gonna be my man,
you’re gonna rise’
And then she took me high over younder (Lord)

And I said ‘fly on my sweet Angel,
fly on through the sky,
fly on my sweet Angel,
forever I will be by your side’




ROOM FULL OF MIRRORS

I used to live in a Room Full of Mirrors
All I could see was me
Then I take my spirit and I smash my mirrors
And now the whole world is here for me to see
Now I’m searching for my love to be

A broken glass was solvin’ my brain
Cut and screamin’ crowdin’ in my head
A broken glass was loud in my brain
It used to fall on my dreams and cut me in my bed
It used to fall on my dreams and cut me in my bed
I say making love was strange in my bed




Night Bird Flying

She’s just a night bird flying through the night
She’s just a night bird making her midnight, midnight flight
She’s flying down to me,
but tomorrow I got to set her free,
set her free

So all we got baby is one precious night
All we got is one precious night
Throw your blues and shoes and things and rings down under the bed
Just wrap me up in your beautiful wings,
you better hear what I say
Please take me through your dreams
Inside your world I want to be
Until tomorrow no tears will be shed
Hold on till the sun gets out of bed
Sail on,
sail on,
sail on . . .




DRIFTING

Drifting on a sea of forgotten teadrops,
On a Life-boat.
Sailing for your love.
Sailing home.

Drifting on a sea of old heartbreaks,
On a Life-boat.
Sailing for your love.
Sailing home.


Ezy Ryder

by Jimi HEndrix

There goes Ezy
Ezy Ryder
Ridin down the highway of desire
He says the free wind
takes him higher
Tryin to find his heaven above
but he's dyin to be loved

*note: I'm not exactly sure about these next 2 lines*

He's tellin me livin
is so magic
Something is forever
so he claims
He's talkin' bout lyin
it's so tragic baby
But don't you worry bout today
we got freedom comin' our way

Solo

How long
do you
think he is gonna last
carryin' out on a gas (?)

See all the others say
"do what you please"
Gotta get the brothers together
and the right to be free
In a cloud of angel dust
I think I see me a freak
Hey motorcycle mama
you gonna marry me? ha,ha

Bridge:
I'll be stone crazy
love comin in at you
Stone crazy baby

Solo

Repeat first verse

C. 1970 Bella Godiva music.




IN FROM THE STORM

Well I, I just came back today . . .
I just came back from the storm.
Yeah!
I said: “I just came back, baby . . .
I just came back from the storm.
Yeah, from the storm.
Well, I didn’t know it then,
But I was sufferin’, sufferin’
For my love to keep me warm.
It was so cold and lonely, yeah.
The wind ’n’ cryin’ blue rain
Were tearing me up.
It was so cold and lonely.
The crying blue rain was tearing me up.
Oh, tearing me up.
I wanna thank you my sweet darling
For digging in the mud and picking me up.
Thank you so much!

It was a terrible rain that was burning my eyes.
. . . . . .
It was you my love who brought me in.
I love you so much,
I’ll never stray from you again.
Hey!

I just came back baby.
I just came back to get my baby on her way.
Yeah, yeah.



Power of Love (a.k.a. Power of Soul)

Floatin everday and everinight

With the power of you
anything you wanna do

keep on groovin’
Understand both sides of the sky
Keep on movin’
Keep on movin’
You got your God and so do I.




HEY BABY (THE LAND OF THE NEW RISING SUN)

Hey, baby, can I step into your world a while?
‘Yes you can,’ she said
‘Come on back with me for a while
We’re gonna go across the Jupiter Sun
And see all your people one by one.’




DOLLY DAGGER

Here comes Dolly Dagger
Her love’s so heavy, gonna make you stagger.
Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge...
Been riding broomsticks since she was fifteen
Blow out all the other witches on the scene.
She got a bull whip, just as long as your life.
her tongue can even scratch
the soul out of the devil’s wife.




CRASH LANDING

You don’t need me
You just wanna bleed me,
So take out your dagger and cut me free, cut me free, cut me free,
Hey, you don’t love me girl, you just try to suffocate me . . .
You don’t love me, hey look at ya, all lovey-dovey when you,
mess around with that needle . . .
As long as you’re gonna be all messed up, I don’t give a damn,
Slow down, slow down, slow down, bang bang, shoot shoot,
As long as you’re your silly self, I don’t give a hoot.




LOOK OVER YONDER

Look over yonder here comes the blues . . .
I can see ’em comin’
Wearing a blue armoured coat . . .
You’re sittin’ there with your violins
Hittin’ wrong notes . . .
Look over yonder, he’s comin’ my way
When he’s around, I never have a happy day
(you even bust my guitar strings)

Look over yonder
Well, he’s talkin’ to my baby
They found my peace pipe on her
Now they’re draggin’ her away
Lord knows we don’t need a devil like him beatin’ us around
Well, he’s knockin’ on my door
Now my house is tumbling down.






Valleys of Neptune ... Arising

(June 7, 1969)
1.
I feel the ocean swaying me ...
washing away all my pains.
See where I was wounded,
Remember the scar ?
Now you can’t see a thing ...
And I feel no pain --

Singing about the Valley of Sunsets
Green and blue ... Canyons too
Singing about Atlantis love songs.
The Valleys of Neptune is arising.

2.
Mercury liquid ... Emerald’s shining
Telling me where I came from --
Honey Sun ... Pourquise Bed he
lays in -- ... on the Burning
edge Horizon.

I’m sailing on the Bluebird’s mission ...
Bubble and curls and tiptoes in the foam --
See the wind make love to all
the ocean ... Joy spread and
the massage got home --

Singing about the Valley of Sunsets ...
Purple and gold ... the Armies of the Lord
Before ancient Egypt, there were moon trips ...
The Valleys of Neptune is arising --

3.
Look out East coast, but you’re
gonna have a neighbor,
A rebirth land ...
the praying Burning Sands.

We know there were worlds
so much older ...
And they shall rise, and
tell us much more the truth of man --

4.
I see visions of sleeping peaks
erupting ...
releasing all hell that
will shake the Earth from end to end --
And this ain’t bad news, good news,
or any news ... it’s just the truth,
Better save your souls while
you can --

Singing about the New Valleys
of the Sunrise ... Rainbow clean,
the world is gonna be ...
Singing about getting ready for the new tide ...
The Valleys of Neptune is arising.

Crystal Ball
As I looked into my crystal ball...
there was formed a tragedy.
Oh but there’s nothing to worry about...
It was just a flash from my memory.
Well it seems that the Holiday Wheel...,
you know, the one that was between Earth
and the moon...Well any way, there was
2,000,000 killed...bodies floating in the
afternoon...

Explosions, 1,000 or more, announcing
tidal waves and Hurricanes...
And down on Earth we lost 3 continents.
Their fiery soul snuffed out by
Nature’s ice and rains...

And pieces of my life...floating,
still soaring through space...
But my sons and their wives
landed on Mars to start another race...

As I gazed upon my crystal ball,
there formed a cloud of jealousy.
But there’s nothing to feel sad about...
By this time, it’s due for only history.
Well, it seems that the Chambers of the
Gods were being emptied for good.
Why would such Heavenly beings want
to desert Earth ?
But as I watched I understood.

As the clouds turned to a Jealous
Green, which was concieved in the heart
of man...the people didn’t respect
the help of the Gods. Instead they turned against
immortal man. As they tried to defy, they
died, into the wicked pits of Hell.

Diana wept a tear after we made love
and said: “My Earthly Darling, I must bid
you farewell...The fate of your mud brothers ...
As pieces of my life...floating,
still soaring in Space...
She could have been my wife
But her time, I didn’t dare wish
to waste.

As I stared into my crystal ball,
there was formed a tearing of hearts.
Ego Armies marched antly onto view
only to be blown apart.

As the sun whispered its secret
through space...to men thinking the false pride
opposite...telling them that it was
such a disgrace to think that men were
the ruler of it. Well you know
how the story goes...the sun they thought
was their circling slave...
round and round and round the
table she goes. Some carried
the thought right to their grave...
And I smell the scorch of the
burnt out minds...who searched
for the hurting truth of space. And the
dizziness they felt inside...
reflected off the spinning
slave pebble earth...

As fragments of my life...
Some floating, some soaring in Space
Collections of my soul
will turn complete only as time will age.

As my tears drop on my crystal ball,
Magnifies the reflections of Christ.
As I blink, His angels take him away.
What he said, man tries to self
help from God. As reward, he
wipes our blood from his eyes...
And the cross that he would
use for his throne represents
not life but death. Is this the way
all heroes go ?...Carrying the first necklace
of death...
His preaching the belief
of eternal Happiness to rest.
Or were his angels just UFOs
vapor trails lead from
another light year land...
Or was it really tomorrow’s
awakening day dream...blemished
by the smudgy finger prints of man...

And slivers of my life...floating,
still soaring in space...
And spirits of Bee hives
even they find a resting place.

As I wander through my crystal ball,
I suddenly ride upon the waves of sound.
I see platforms of launching
pads even before the first blade of
grass turned brown.

And I taste their tunnels through
the sky...As the axis turns in its womb.
Frozen flowers and animals try to
hold positions they had before
their morning bloomed...
And I follow the last rocket up
to the libraries of the moon’s meadows.




Woodstock Festival

500,000 Halos ...
outshined the mud and history.
We washed and drank in
God’s tears of Joy,
And for once...and for everyone...
the truth was not a mystery--

Love called to all...Music is Magic.
As we passed over and beyond the walls of nay.
Hand in Hand as we lived and
made real the dreams of peaceful men--

We came together...Danced with
the pearls of Rainy weather
Riding the waves of music and
Space--Music is Magic...
Magic is life...
Love as never Loved Before...
Harmony to Son and Daughter...man and wife.

BLACK GOLD

Black is Gold is pure
And true kings of this Earth.
1. So I say it’s up to us to straighten
out this mess...
We got to go through Hell...
And then that’s the last of this
miserable test...
2. Black must be Bold
Because it’s Gold and true
kings of this world...
So let them go to the moon.
Yes let them go to Mars.
Because deep down inside
they’re really from the stars.
3. That’s why they don’t want
us to mix...just the way
the Word of God had said.
So let them go to Saturn...that’s
where they’ll learn instead.
Because Black and White
together is right...
And White by itself is
an egotistic elf.
4. So they show you how to
kill...and if you don’t
they will.
What do they know about
happiness...
How can they about life...
They just got lost in Space.
So when they landed,
Atlantis cried.

So if they’re so alone try
to make them feel at home.
So let them fetch you fire
wood.
And let them nibble on
the bone.
So invent a word called
Love.
And then they blame our
mistakes on God.
Don’t you know how lonely
they must be.
So many light years from home.
Hey Soulful people I’m
calling.
Don’t be no more slaves.
Because God will protect us
when it comes to doomsday.
Realize before it’s too late...
that NO ONE on Earth will escape.
We are the kings of Earth.
And AXIS gonna put them slaves...
They killed so many worlds before.
But they will pass sentence
upon themselves...
When the Earth opens up...will
they be saved from our hell.

I feel the TRUTH of LIFE.
We better all realize...
People like me and you
We feel so bad, don’t know
what to do... they keep us
High low on drugs.
And they got us making
their Rugs...As we
go dripping blood.
But the Sun knows as
the wind blows and the
fire grows towards the
far shores and the water
foams to make steamed
Bones of all of those who
don’t belive that...
Black is Gold is the kings
of this world.
We all better get our places
before God tells us to our
face WE ARE...PAST the
Human Race.
Let’s pray that we all agree
we got to straighten out the
family tree.
Life is for you and me togather.
That’s the way it was meant to be.
White man watch your mouth
because our Drums, they face
the South.
And you can’t kill the God
that kept you alive between
the poles of the north and
south.
You better adjust your place
in this world...Before your
hair, it starts to curl...and the
yellow, red, and Black of this
world will tear your ass and soul
apart.

Where is he coming from ?
from Heaven where 1,000,000
worlds are one.
Where is he going to ?
He’s going to make contact
with the living and the dead...
Here comes Black Gold...
Gather round young and old...
He’s going to be felt by the
Timid and the Bold...
within a wink of an eye,

*******************
With the wink of an eye
Egos swell, bust and die...
Kingdoms fall and cry...
With the wink of an eye...
*******************
With the wink of an eye
a new born baby cries...
and a 100 soldiers die with
the wink of an eye.




TRASH MAN


I am your trash man-
Throw out all your trash today-
Clean out your mind today-
Please pass the weed
and please take some heed.
Take your fast glass guns and
throw them away.
There he goes, Hey
I just the Gypsy Bandit.

Gypsy talk-
She has been here 3 times and
the 4th time, she was emptied in from
the mouth of a Bottle.
Seems like I seen you somewhere before-
And her dog named pig had a red
neck shaped just like a cracker
dipped in rot hole.

Address 3rd trash can from the
left. That’s where I’ll be-
Just take all your blues
and throw them at my feet.
-Oh that’s what friends are for.
Yes I sing the blues for me and you.
Let me do changes and come back
and tell you. So it won’t be so hard
when it’s time for you to go through.

Anything is possible after an
embarrassing situation-

And once you take but all that
rubbish and hate and-
load it on my truck.
But don’t make me work late-
I am your trashman-
And don’t forget I also want
to live- not just survive-
I ain’t your Black Slave- Just
because I just might try to
wash out your mind- It’s up to
your friend-
To get up off your rusty behind.

And please pass me the peace weed,
and take some heed-
Throw all that mixed up speed
away- All that dirt is gonna clog and
hurt- man you reach 100 years old in a day-
I am your trashman-
I am your trashman-
I come to keep your houses clean.
I am the trashman-
Take out all your Dirty Blues and
dreams-
Well when I come around to
collect for the Bill,
that’s when I come around for
my pleasure kill...

I am the trashman
You must have seen me in
your T.V.
I’m here to clean up-
All your hang ups or
come downs, I’m gonna kill...
That’s my duty.
So please don’t try to make
me crawl up no hill.

May I whisper in your ear...
Say something you ought to hear...
Lots of people so dear
they’re getting hurt...




MAY I WHISPER IN YOUR EAR

May I whisper in your ear
from my heart so you’ll clearly hear...
There are people so dear...
They’re like Children...
Naked in a cold world...
Beautiful children
in an old world...

May I take you away
from the evils of today
to the dreams of tomorrow.
You know that Heaven...
Has no sorrow.
You know that Heaven...
Has no tomorrow.

Hear the Sound of the Magic Drums...
Hearts are beating for the Sun...
Sending Evil on the run...
Now watch the wind...


*******************

Look over yonder...
Here comes some news...
Coming down like lightning...
Straight for me and you.
People of destruction
your time is out of date...
People who’s living crooked,
better start getting straight.

I’ve been through some changes,
a whole lot of re-arranges...
Been through some ups and downs,
and whole lot of turn arounds.
I been on the shelf and even killed myself...
1,000 times ago and maybe 1,000
times more.

She said she comes from Ice land...
I told her I was from the west.
She took me to the snow capped mountains...
and then she put me through the test...
We walked across the glacier,
the horses stayed behind...
and as we laid between the
frozen Vallies we kissed
for the very first time.
and now we’re stuck together.

It was too long ago.
But it seems like...years ago...
since I felt the warm hello of the Sun.
Lately things seem a little colder...
The wind, it seems to get a little bolder.


*******************

Forget of my name
Remember it only as a hand shake,
introduction to my belief which is God.
Ride instead the Waves of my Interpreture,
Music, sound
Hynotic if you choose
But truth and life
regardless of your questionable timid compromises
which I intend to erase.
Which I will erase without hint of reward
as I am only a messenger
and you a Sheep in process of evolution
Almost at Death with yourself
and on the staircase of Birth.
Soon you may almost forget the smell of your family...





THE STORY OF LIFE

(17 September 1970)
The story of Jesus
so easy to explain
After they crusified him,
a woman, she claimed his name
The story of Jesus
the whole bible knows
went all across the desert
and in the middle, he found a rose

There should be no questions
there should be no lies
He was married ever happily after
All the Tears we cry
No use in arguing
all the use to the man that moans
When each man falls in battle,
his soul it has to roam
Angels of heaven
flying sausers to some,
made Easter Sunday
the name of the rising sun

The story is written
by so many people who dared,
to lay down the truth
to so very many who cared
to carry the cross
of Jesus and beyond
We will guide the light
this time with a woman in our arms
We as
