Man's ego is inflated, his laws are outdated, they don't apply no more
Just do your thing, you'll be king;
If dogs run free.
She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe;
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said;
"You look like the silent type."
I must admit I felt a little uneasy;
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
The ghost of 'lectricity howls in the bones of her face
I've been down on the bottom of a world full of lies;
I ain't looking for nothing in anyone's eyes
The sun's not yellow it's chicken
it is not he or she or them or it;
That you belong to.
don't criticize;
what you can't understand.
Go to him now, he calls you, you can't refuse
I'm listening to Neil Young, I gotta turn up the sound;
Someone's always yelling turn it down
If dogs run free, why not me;
Across the swamp of time?
Well I don't dare close my eyes and I don't dare wink;
Maybe in the next life I'll be able to hear myself think
If he needs a third eye he just grows it
I've gained some recognition but I lost my appetite.
All the people we used to know;
Are an illusion to me now
Won't you come see me, Queen Jane?
Give ya delusions of grandeur;
And a evil eye;
Give you idea that;
You're too good to die
There's always some new stranger sneakin' glances,;
Some trigger-happy fool willin' to take chances
Every brain is civilized,;
Every nerve is analyzed,;
Everything is criticized when you are in need.
My conscience is beginning to bother me today.
I know God is my shield and he won't lead me astray
Took a stranger to teach me, to look into justice's beautiful face;
And to see an eye for an eye and a tooth for a tooth.
Radiant jewel, mystical wife.
I'm in the streets;
With the tombstone blues
They say ev'rything can be replaced
Was that the thunder that I heard?;
My head is vibrating, I feel a sharp pain
Ain't complaining 'bout what I got;
Seen better times, but who has not?
