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's getting late

"Whoa, yeah!

C'mon, yeah

Yeah, c'mon, yeah

Yeah, c'mon

Oh, yeah, ma"

-Jim Morrison

"Picture yourself in a boat on a river,

With tangerine trees and marmalade skies

Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,

A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,

Towering over your head.

Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,

And she's gone."

-William Shatner

Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind

Dead kings, many things I can't define

Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind

Incense and peppermints, the color of time.

Who cares what games we choose?

Little to win, but nothing to lose.

Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns

Turn on, turn in, turn your eyes around.

Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah

Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah, yeah!

To divide the cockeyed world in two

Throw your pride to one side, it's the least you can do.

Beatniks and politics, nothing is new

A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view

Who care what games we choose?

Little to win, but nothin' to lose.

Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind

Dead kings, many things I can't define.

Occasion, persuassions clutter your mind

Incense and peppermints, the color of time.

Who cares what games we choose?

Little to win, but nothin' to lose.

Incense and peppermints

Incense and peppermints

Ten Years After - 50 Million Miles Beneath My Brain

I want to know you

I want to show you

I want to grow you

Inside of me

I want to see you

I want to free you

I want to be you

Inside of me

Love me 50,000 miles beneath my brain

Love me 50,000 times and then again

Can you love me with a thousand eyes?

Can you see right through my bones?

Can you kiss me with a thousand lips?

Can you melt a solid stone?

Can you hear me from a thousand miles

When you're screaming at the stars?

Can you pull me up to Jupiter

When I'm all hung up on Mars?

Burn my eyes with your flame

Let your world spin free

Let it go, baby

I'll do the same

All depends on me

Let it go

It's all the same

What with jewels that you can't see

Love me, love me, love me, love me, love me, babe

Bring it on home to me...

Good morning starshine

The earth says hello

You twinkle above us

We twinkle below

Good morning starshine

Typed out, they look so cheesy, but I love "Today" by Jefferson Airplane.

Today

I feel like pleasing you

More than before

Today

I know what I want to do

But I don't know what for

To be living for you

Is all I want to do

To be loving you

It'll all be there

When my dreams come true

Today

Everything you want I swear

It all will come true

Today

I realize how much

I'm in love with you

With you standing here

I can tell the world

What it means to love

To go on from here

I can't use words

They don't say enough

Please please

Listen to me

It's taken so long to come true

It's all for you

All for you

A preachment, dear friend

You are about to receive on John Barleycorn

Nicotine and the temptations of Eve

No parkin' by the sewer sign

Hot dog, my razors broke

Water drippin' up the spout

But I dont care, let it all hang out

Hangin' from a pine tree by my knees

Sun is shinin' through the shade

Nobody knows what its all about

It's too much, man, let it all hang out

Saw a man walkin' upside down

My T.V.s on the blink

Made Galileo look like a Boy Scout

Sorry 'bout that, let it all hang out

Sleep all day, drive all night

Brain my numb, can't stop now

For sure ain't no doubt

Keep an open mind, let it all hang out

It's rainin' inside a big brown moon

How does that mess you baby up, leg

Eatin' a Reuben sandwich with sauerkraut

Don't stop now, baby, let it all hang out

Let it all hang out

Let it all hang out

Let it all hang out

Ah, Bubble Puppy! Always thought that was the strangest record in my dad's collection.

I once quoted that song to a former boss of mine over ten years ago, and he was floored that I even knew who Bubble Puppy was. He told me saw them in Houston in the late 60's or so.

"White collared conservative 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..."

and

"Fall mountains, just don't fall on me."

Mr Hendrix

Always know sometimes think it's me

But you know I know when it's a dream

I think I know I mean, ah yes

but it's all wrong

that is I think I disagree

I once read that if you changed some of the "knows" to "no," it drastically changes the meaning of that verse:

Always... no, sometimes think it's me

But you... no I know when it's a dream

I think I... no I mean, ah yes

but it's all wrong

that is I think I disagree

Forty thousand headmen couldn't make me change my mind

If I had to take the choice between the deafman and the blind

I know just where my feet should go and that's enough for me

I turned around and knocked them down and walked across the sea

Hadn't traveled very far when suddenly I saw

Three small ships a-sailing out towards a distant shore

So lighting up a cigarette I followed in pursuit

And found a secret cave where they obviously stashed their loot

Filling up my pockets, even stuffed it up my nose

I must have weighed a hundred tons between my head and toes

I ventured forth before the dawn had time to change its mind

And soaring high above the clouds I found a golden shrine

Laying down my treasure before the iron gate

Quickly rang the bell hoping I hadn't come too late

But someone came along and told me not to waste my time

And when I asked him who he was he said, 'Just look behind'

So I turned around and forty thousand headmen bit the dirt

Firing twenty shotguns each and man, it really hurt

But luckily for me they had to stop and then reload

And by the time they'd done that I was heading down the road
