Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Slipshod gymslip in my neighbourhood,
Empty head, steel bed, Dipseys no good
All alone, no telephone, to hype up my baby,
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Bent spent, psychedelic mailman's head,
Gorging up my spokes like the ghostly dead
Ally pally angel chewing up my blues,
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good

First girl I ever met I don't recognise
Her nose is smashed her frame is bent
She's covered in flies
Everyone I ever loved, I'll love 'till I die
Goin' to see my baby in the afternoon,
Goin' to take my baby on a Venus loon

Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good.
Oh my Venus loon it'll make you swoon,
It'll make you feel good
It'll make you feel good.

Basil Dazzle and her dissolving city
Stella Gazelle and the distraction I bought her
I wonder why, oh why

Debra Zebra and the disgusting gawk
Malice to Pallas at the all night palace, with Alice
I wonder why I wonder why

Metal Guru's in the loo with my glue, yeah,
Telegram Sam bought some land in Milan,
I wonder why

Thin faced Sally skinned a cat in my alley
Dawn sunstorm minister of doom, in your tomb
I wonder why
Lord I wonder why, I wonder why

Now I'm poppin' a few in the morning dew
Do the monkey wrench,
on a persian bench it's a teenage night
and the vampires are right

And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth

Picked up Kenny at the art-deco deli,
And Zero is a cat with any automated hat
And I need to be rid of the fantasies I'm hiding

And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth

It's a shame for a man to hide all the things
that do survive from his past

When I jump on your horse I gallop the course,
And howl like a wolf and I drink up the sky
And I beat on my chest just to punk up the rest

And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth
And I want to lay my lips on your explosive mouth

It's a shame for a man to hide all the things
that do survive from his past

Which Galaxy are you from
Tell me how they bang a gong

Your world, I mean your world
Your world, I mean your world

Shadow in the alley at midnight
Metal clad rocker with bent teeth

My world, I mean my world
My world, I mean my world

My planets like an angel with clipped wings
A river bed dump shed sweetheart

Do they have sickness in society
Do they have glitter crap gaiety

Your world, I mean your world
Your world, I mean your world

Change change change see it all the time
Look look look
I could write a book about my life
Baby blue I love you
Look look look
I could write a book about my life

Change is coming just like the sun
Change is coming you better run

Baby blue I love you
Blue blue blue
I could write a book about your life

Change is coming just like the sun
Change is coming you better run

Change is coming just like the sun
Change is coming you better run

I wouldn't lie

You're like a sanctuary,
a poet's memory
I wouldn't lie

A universe of happiness
beneath your be-bop dress
I wouldn't lie

And I love you, and I love you
'Cos you're my nameless wildness

You're like a precious book,
a stolen golden look
I wouldn't lie

So keep your consciousness
volcanoes in my breast
I wouldn't lie

And I love you, and I love you
'cos you're my nameless wildness

I wouldn't lie, I wouldn't lie
'Cos I love you, and I love you
'Cos you're my nameless wildness

I wouldn't lie

Surprise surprise, the boys are home
My guardian angel's rung down my telephone
The heat's on mister, can't you hear them scream
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

The curfew comes at the crack of light
The sad old wino aches to dissipate the fright
The jet junk jiver speeds past in his machine
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

A broken god from a musty world
Sweetly mouthed touched an onyx girl
His prison bars were very hard to clean
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream -Yeah

The Wizard of Oz and the bronzen thief
Ruled my girl with teutonic teeth
But all was lost when her mouth turned green
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

Silver Surfer and the Ragged Kid
Are all sad and rusted boy, they don't have a gig
Believe me Pope Paul my toes are clean
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream

Black is black and white is white
Some go to Heaven and some get it light
Nobody disapproves but his wicked screams
Whatever happened to the Teenage Dream -Yeah

It's gonna be grand when you take
the hand of the liquid gang, oh yeah
Peter with the heater, he's such a messy eater
He's got frogs in his eyes from telling those lies

It's gonna be grand when you take
the hand of the liquid gang, oh yeah

Shelly 's silver belly, she's got me on the telly

You're gonna be grand (x4)

Paladin heat with the dancing feet
Rides a two tone bike he does what he likes
But my head is alright but you're out of sight

Carsmile Smith he's the old one
Don't you know he's the good one

Don'tcha, don'tcha

For a man she never knew

Running around in the dawn with that hat
I can see, I am no match for you
Doin the foxtrot on your knees-Garbo Girl,
It's so hard to contemplate you
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul

That rich ditch won't catch me girl but it sculpted you
Silk and Diamond gilded gauntlet can be weird
But I'm scared to look like you
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul

Lean on my head kiss my knee, breathe again
Bumble bee in my ear see a tear but it's solid and gold
I don't want to get like you
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
'Cos you're so full of interstellar soul
So full of interstellar soul

Superbad tiger running with your brain
Tucked beneath your arms like a devil train
When the angels from the heavens
Meet the angels from the earth
You'll hide inside your cave, that's right of course

And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!

I have known lots of ladies and the ladies know me,
I've been foxy roxy punctured and I'm funky born free
You can needle treacle kiss me
With the honey from your mouth
But believe me I'm a bad moon bopster
And I'll never come in your house

And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!

Dig this...

And we know, we ain't slow, we're the avengers!

Beneath the bebop moon
I want to croon with you
Beneath the mambo sun
I got to be the one with you

My life's a shadowless horse
If I can't get across to you
In the alligator rain
My heart's all pain for you

Girl you're good
And I've got wild knees for you
On a mountain range
I'm Dr. Strange for you

Upon a savage lake
Make no mistake I love you
I got a powder-keg leg
And my wig's all pooped for you

With my hat in my hand
I'm a hungry man for you
I got stars in my beard
And I feel real weird for you

Beneath the bebop moon
I'm howling like a loon for you
Beneath the mambo sun
I've got to be the one for you

I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was twelve
I was dancing when I was... ah
I was dancing when I was... ah
I danced myself right out the womb
I danced myself right out the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself right out of the womb
I was dancing when I was eight
I was dancing when I was eight
Is it strange to dance so late
Is it strange to dance so late, ah ah
I danced myself into the tomb
I danced myself into the tomb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself into the tomb
Is it wrong to understand
the fear that dwells inside a man
What's it like to be a loon
I liken it to a balloon
I danced myself right out of the womb
I danced myself right out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself into the tomb
But then again once more
I danced myself right out of the womb
I danced myself right out of the womb
Is it strange to dance so soon
I danced myself right out of the womb

The throne of time
Is a kingly thing
From whence you know
We all do begin
And dressed as you are girl
In your fashions of fate
Baby it's too late

Shallow all the actions
Of the children of men
Fogged was their vision
Since the ages began
And lost like a lion
In the canyons of smoke
Girl it's no joke.

When you're the love of my life
And when you gorge me with a knife

On the beach of the land of you
And I'm your friend..

Oh..Lean love

With the sky in my hand
And I'm blue..

I could have loved you girl
Like a planet
I could have chained your heart
To a star
But it really doesn't matter at all
No it really doesn't matter at all
Life's a gas,
I hope it's gonna last

I could have built a house
On the ocean
I could have placed your love
In the sky
I could have turned you
Into a priestess
I could have burned
Your fate in the sand

In the moonlight
Fighting with the night
It's a rip-off
Kissing all the slain
I'm bleeding in the rain
Such a rip-off

Rocking in the nude
I'm feeling such a dude
It's a rip-off
Dancing in the dark
With the tramps in the Park
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

See your baby's stud
Sliding in my mud
It's a rip-off
Bleached on the beach
I want to tickle your peach
It's a rip-off

Such a rip-off
Terraplane Tommy
Wants to bang your gong

It's a rip-off
The President's weird
He's got burgundy beard
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

I'm the King of the highway
I'm the Queen of the hop
You should see me
At the Governor's ball
Doing the rip-off bop

I'm a social person
I'm the creature in disguise
There's a man with a whip
On his silver lip
Living inside my eyes

I'm the cat from the alley
I'm the fleetfoot voodoo man
There's very little that's ever said
All of which I understand

Caught like skunk
In space and time
It's a rip-off
If it's hers
Well it must be mine
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

Dancing in the nude
Feeling such a dude
It's a rip-off
Mountings of the moon
Remind me of my spoon
It's a rip-off
Such a rip-off

We are children of Rarn
We've trodden the vales of the sun
The child will cry
On swans they fly
We are the children of Rarn

And we are the seekers of space
We've seen our master's face
It's young and gold
And silvery old
We are the seekers of space

OM.

I've got a little babe
With jewels upon her lip
I've got a little babe
With jewels upon her lip
Her hair's like a river
It's fast and slowly drips

She bathes in thunder
The elves are under her
She bathes in thunder
The elves are under her
She walks the wind
And has a panther
With silver fur

Her thoughts are gold
Her eyes electric blue
Her thoughts are gold
Her eyes electric blue
She sleeps upon the dreams
Of me and you.

I want to give every childe
The chance to dance
I want to spread my feet
In the silver heat

I want to give every man
A kingdom fair
To hide inside
His golden hair

I want to give every face
A secret place
Where to take their tears
So there's no disgrace

I want to give every childe
The chance to dance.

Light up your face
With all the love within you
Say your word
Make it heard

Light up the wind
With all the kings inside you
Shout it out
Have no doubts
For the time of love is now

Light up your head
With things the children said child
Make a start
From your heart

Light up the world
With poems from within you
Shout it out
Have no doubts
For the time of love is now

And your days of love
Are always in a dream
You know.

If I could have grown
All upon my own
If I could have grown
I grew
If I could have grew
I do

If I had a throne
You could call it home
If I cry my tears are yours
To open any frozen doors

Hey let's do it like we're friends
Let's do it do it
Hey let's do it like we're friends.

A root of star
I gave to thee
From the canyons of the sea
A jewel of frost that was lost
In days of dreams when we were free

A shield of bronze a thousand gongs
That calls the queen of dreams to me
A mask of jade I shyly laid
To thy form of finery

A root of star baby.

Trucking down by the roadside
Met a man with a starhide
He said boy wouldn't you like to look
But could it give me love
Give me little love from her heart

Bopping down by the whirlpool
I met a girl she was god's tool
I said girl wouldn't you like to rock
But could it give me love
Give me little love from god's heart

Walking down by the westwind
I met a boy he was my friend
I said boy we could sing it too
And we do
Give us love
Give us little love
Give us little love from your hearts

And then we'll walk.

Is it love
Is it love
Is it love that makes us rock

We're gonna rock
We're gonna rock with love

Is it love
That makes us rock.

Summer deep is in the hills again
His lady is a lioness
Winds of birds blow through the fields again
Invaders from the true worlds

A coat of grapes is on my back again
I ride upon my zebra
Pterodactyl beak hat on my brow
The truth is like a stranger
Be like you could
All my friends say.

One day she came like a seagull woman
One day she came
One day she came like a seagull woman
One day she came
One Day

One day we change from children into people
One day we change
One day she went like a seagull woman

Love you
Oh girl I do
Love you

Come the sun
See it run
Across the sky
Cosmic eye
Is for you
And no one else

Love you
Oh girl I do
Love you

Come the sun
See it run
Across the sky
See it cry
For you
And no one else

Walking in the woods one day
I met a guy who said that he was magic
Wonderful things he said, oh yeah
Pointed hat upon his head
Knew why people laughed and cried
Why they lived and why they di-di-di-di-de-die
di-di-di-di-de-die, di-di-di-di-die

Shadows followed him around
He walked through the woods without a single sound
di-di-di-di-de-die, di-di-di-di-de-die, di-di-di-di-die

Golden eagles at his door
Cats and bats played on the floor
Silver sunlight in his eyes
The wizard turned and melted in the sky.

Ride it on out like a bird in the sky way,
Ride it on out like you were a bird,
Fly it all out like an eagle in a sunbeam
Ride it all out like you were a bird

Wear a tall hat like a Druid in the old days,
Wear a tall tat and a tattooed gown,
Ride a white swan like the people of the beltane,
Wear your hair long babe, you can't go wrong
Catch a bright star and place it of you forehead,
Say a few speels and there you go.
Take a black cat and sit it on you shoulder
And in the moring you'll know all you know

(Eddie Cochran)

Well I'm gonna raise a fuss
And I'm gonna raise a holler
About workin' all summer
Just tryin' to earn a dollar
Well, I went to my boss
Who governs me
He said, "No, dice, bud
You gotta work late"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Well, my mom and papa told me
Now you better earn some money
If one of you is gonna go
Ridin' next Sunday
Well, I didn't go to work
I told my boss I was sick
He said, "You can't use the car
'Cause you didn't work a lick"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Gonna save two weeks
Gonna have a fine vacation
Gonna take my problem
To the United Nations
Well, I went to my congressman
He sent me back a note
It said, "Id like to help you, hon
But you're too young to vote"

Sometime I wonder
What I'm gonnna do
There ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues
Now there ain't no cure
For the summertime blues

My eyes went up
It was sunrise
The sky turned black
It was noon

A ship of the silverest
Metal
Shadowed out
All of the moon

A shape
That was golden and crimson
Extend a claw
To my frame

I sunk in the sand
Like an infant
I screamed
But my tongue was lame

My heart on a platter
They'd stolen
My eyes
Were all fiery flame

A sound like sweet dove
I did stutter
And then the ship
Swum the skies again

If I could have grown
All upon my own
If I could have grown
I grew
If I could have grew
I do

If I had a throne
You could call it home
If I cry my tears are yours
To open any frozen doors

Hey let's do it like we're friends
Let's do it do it
Hey let's do it like we're friends.

Met a woman she's spouting prose
She's got luggage eyes and a roman nose
Her body is slung from side to side
Need a lift she said much obliged
I'm riding piggy-back
Then I came to her shack

We go inside the place it's a mess
She said my name's the liquid poetess
She unties her mouth
And her buckskin dress
She drinks from a bottle
labelled tenderness
I'm in one hand in the other's a can

She puts me in the can
And smiles through the wall
I got the horror's cos I'm one inch tall
Next thing I know's a girl by my side
Dressed in a bayleaf she's trying to hide
I asked her name she said Germaine
Do the rock do the one inch rock.

One day she came like a seagull woman
One day she came
One day she came like a seagull woman
One day she came
One Day

One day we change from children into people
One day we change
One day she went like a seagull woman

Walking in the woods one day

We are children of Rarn
We've trodden the vales of the sun
The child will cry
On swans they fly
We are the children of Rarn

And we are the seekers of space
We've seen our master's face
It's young and gold
And silvery old
We are the seekers of space

Prophet pumped the car-scar
Deeper only sweeter
Loves everyone everyone

The Slider - T. Rex


I could never understand
The wind at all
Was like a ball of love
I could never never see
The cosmic sea
Was like a bumblebee

And when i'm sad
I slide

I have never never kissed
A car before
It's like a door
I have always always
Grown my own before
All schools are strange

And when i'm sad
I slide
..

I have never never
Nailed a nose before
That's hwo the garden grows
I could never understand
The wind at all
Was like a ball of love
And when i'm sad
I slide
Watch now
I'm gonna slide

Baby Boomerang - T. Rex


Slim lined sheik faced
Angel of the night
In the graveyard of the night
New york witch in the dungeon
Of the day
I'm trying to write my novel
All you do is play

Mice pie dog-eye
Eagle on the wind
I'm searching through this garbage
Looking for a friend
Your uncle with an alligator
Chained to his leg
Dangles you your freedom
Then he offers you his bed

It seems to me to dream
Is something too wild
In max's kansas city
You a belladonna child
Riding on the higways
On the gateways to the south
You're talking with your boots
And you're walking with your mouth

Baby boomerang baby boomerang
You never spike a person
But you always bang the whole gang

Thank you ma'am

Spaceball Ricochet - T. Rex


I'm just a man
I understand the wind
And all the things
That make the children cry

With my les paul
I know i'm small
But i enjoy living
Anyway

Book after book
I get hooked
Everytime the writer
Talks to me like a friend

What can i do
We just live in a zoo
All i do is play
The spaceball ricochet

Deep in my heart
There's a house
That can hold
Almost all of you

I brought a car
It was old but kind
I gave it my mind
And it disappeared

I love a girl
She is a changeless angel
She's a city it's a pity
That i'm like me

I said how can i lay
When all i do is play
The spaceball ricochet

Buick Mackane - T. Rex

Buick buick buick mackane
Will you
Buick mackane will you be my
Girl

Rainy lady, queen of the rock
Will you help me to roll
Help me roll, to my soul

Slide slider
You're just a sexual glider
You're just a sexual glider
Be my plane in the rain

Telegram Sam - T. Rex

Rabbit Fighter - T. Rex


Shady politician in my bed
Tying bolts of lightning to his head
Call me rabbit fighter you know it's true
'cos babe i'll rabbit fight all over you

Tramp king of the city he's my friend
Moondog's just a prophet to the end
Call me rabbit fighter you knoiw it's true
'cos babe i'll rabbit fight all over you

I saw a dude unscrewed and badly turned
Laughing
'cos he'd gotten what he'd earned
Call me rabbit fighter you know it's true
'cos babe i'll rabbit fight all over you

Call me rabbit fighter
Jo jo don't you know

Baby Strange - T. Rex


I see you walking
I see you talking
With all of my friends
I'm shadowed under you're like some thunder
I wanna be your friend

I wanna call you
I wanna ball you all night long
In winds of passion my whip is lashing
I wanna get you and then

Oooo you're strange
Don't lame me baby strage
Don't lame me baby

The city's shaking
I ain't faking baby this is the end
I'm overloaded my head's exploded
I wanna get you and then

You gonna look fine
Be primed for dancing
You're gonna trip and glide
All on the trembling plane
Your diamond hands
Will be stacked with roses
And wind and cars
And people of the past

I'll call you thing
Just when the moon sings
And place your face in stone
Upon the hill of stars
And gripped in the arms
Of the changeless madman
We'll dance our lives away
In the Ballrooms of Mars

You talk about day
I'm talking 'bout night time
When the monsters call out
The names of men
Bob Dylan knows
And I bet Alan Freed did
There are things in night
That are better not to behold

You dance
With your lizard leather boots on
And pull the strings
That change the faces of men
You diamond browed hag
You're a gutter-gaunt gangster
John Lennon knows your name
And I've seen his

Chariot Choogle - T. Rex


Girl you are a groove
You're like the planets when you move
See the winter' coming
In a two finned caddy
Gonna walk upon the waters
Go oooo yea

Girl you gotta cook
You got the chariot by the hook
I'm riding in the rain
Got my blue suede shoes
Gonna give up all my pain
And go ooooo yea

Baby you know who you are
Baby you know who you are
Don't you know who you are

Standing on your porch
You wear your pleasure like a torch
Hiding in the road
Like a paolini toad
Gonna give up all my load
And go oooo yea

Yeah
Baby I wanna walk you home
Oh baby I wanna walk you home
There's a shadow in the bedroom
And I'm scared to sleep alone
Baby doesn't everybody weep
Oh baby doesn't everybody weep
I'd slide up there beside you
But my nightmare's oh too steep
Yeah
Baby I wanna buy you a Cadillac
Baby I wanna buy you a Cadillac
I bought it with my song
But you say that you're gonna give it back
Yeah
Baby I love you baby
I love you baby I love you baby

I was walking down the skyway my way
When I saw the legs that I love
I was thinking about drinking something
When I saw the legs that I love
I bought a car 'twas a low slung thunderwing
It moved like the sun of the dawn
My little baby she's a tip-a-toed vamp rider
She moves like the sun of the dawn
Ooh
Yeah, get it on
Do your thing,
love on the Thunderwing
Do your thing, love on the Thunderwing
Yeah
Get it on, get it on whooo
Well my wings had grooves
And my baseball boots bounce
When I hear the music I love
A soapbox chord was the start of my wandering
when I hear the music I love

Lady, like a like a lady like a like a
I'm gonna give all my love to you
Lady, like a like a lady like a like a
I'm gonna dance ill the rain for you
Got you feeling, mama
Got the feeling, mama
Got to dream about it, yeah, yeah
Shaking, my bones are aching
I'm like a scampering train for you
Baby, like a like a baby like a like a
I'm gonna give my pain to you

Hot rod mama moving like a motor cycle devil in a race
Blown out my mind, I can't keep up the pace
I'm selling all my midnight, still broke and living on the ground
My gone little mama cut out without a sound

With my greased-up levis,
baseball boots above my head
If it wasn't such a tragedy
I might wish I was dead

She took my ice-cream mustang
and my purple coloured dodeville
She even took my panpipes and my elixir of life pill

Smile your smile Mister Scenescof
Its not hard to have run off
On a physical ride
With my babe by your side
Smile your smile for a while

It was grand to have known her
It was grand to have known her
I don't need anyone
To dictate all my fun
Smile your smile and then run

Mountain eyes, peeping out of his head
Sipping tea composing in his bed
A hundred hands working on a musical of old
Debussy and Mendelssohn
Handel and Dvorak of old
Child star protege of Mister Gormez
Who said you'd go far
Child star, they do not see just what a precious gem you'd be
Sad to see them watching you fade into invisibility

Twelve years old, your elvish fingers kiss your Beethoven hair
The awesome people stare
They're unaware of all the angel sounds they see and hear
Debussy and Mendelssohn
Handel and Dvorak of old
Child star protege of Mister Gormez
Who said you'd go far
Child star and when you died at just thirteen they wept and wrung their hair
Sad to see them mourning you when you are there
Within the flowers and the trees

Saw a face in a conical of lace, it was a strange orchestra
Mannequin skin pounding on a bass-drum, strange orchestra

Lilliputian, evil in the eyes of the man with the leaf harp
He lusts for the urchin hiding under mountains of moleskin

A big cat like t-tyrannosaurus going to Lilliput
The ensemble make a tiny rumble, the celloist solos

The sky blackens and the bass string slackens and they stand statuesquely
Then they giggle and they wiggle through the door in the big dark oak tree

Broken English words cracked the air like a bell
She had a chateau in Virginia Waters
Free from all those culture vultures
Her silver car a silver cloud cloaked the air in a shroud
Her pearly author's teeth tore the seasoned cedar coloured pheasant

Her one rich wish is to write a book about
A Venetian mother's problems on a barge in little Venice

She peers at the portrait of her poetess grandmother
Who's theatrical in character
Wise just like Socrates
She sinks her nails into the aged canvas
But the power from the wordster's head was cool and shrill and frightening

Miss Drag is intermingled with the powder-blue chaise lounge
She types some acid words to her hairless Havana art dealer

Her one rich wish is to write a book about a chateau in Virginia Waters
Free from all those culture vultures

I saw a little man who had a toy trumpet
He sat on a stone with his lips to the mouthpiece
He was deaf dumb and blind so he couldn't quite make it
When out of the horn came a solid silver genie
Who was made just to make the little man happy
As the man made sounds the genie painted fluid,
Mind-blowing visions on the little man's brain-box

Everybody small with no lips to play the trumpet
Everybody living inside a giant deaf aid
Everybody's eyes crucified to the tapestry
Woven by the giant with the solid silver genie
Who plays the trumpet

M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-my Mustang Ford

My Baby she knows I'm on a scene
My baby keeps asking where I've been
My baby's guessing that I'm messing
It's all put together with alligator leather.

My Baby she knows I'm no fool
My baby she says hey keep cool
My baby don't realise I'm hypnotised
It's all put together with alligator leather

M-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-m-my Mustang Ford

Afghan woman, deemed a princess
Born a true blue thoroughbred
Head a chiselled face of fables
Omen of no ill

Hills that spread around your chamber
Blooms that twine around your ears
Blossoms of the royalest texture angel of the years

Clad in sacks and scraps of linen
Living 'neath your waterwell
Praying that my youthy pauper's face
Will quench you well

Gazelle girl striding through your palace
Precious jewels nestle in your hair
Rameses born with platinum future
Take my heart and care.

Night comes down just like a giant umbrella
Slows me down, got to get it together

Saxophone sage plays upon her doorstep
Evening's lies are dying all around him

Head of plumes and crimson ostrich feathers
8th Hussars' manners gush out of my bloodstream, my queen

Clad in drag of oriental beggar
Ju-ju beads holding me all together

Hot rod mama moving like a motor cycle devil in a race
Blown out my mind, I can't keep up the pace
I'm selling all my midnight, still broke and living on the ground

Sitting all alone, looking at the throne of the one I used to love
Sitting all alone, looking at the stone of my lovely inca love
The huntress stands, with peacock hands she'd take me to where she lie
She sighs so deep, it rocks the river of her stomach sky
The oval moon, it tans the faun who holds grapes for my love
Sitting all alone, sitting in the throne of my lovely inca love
Hare krishna
I come from a time where the burning of trees was a crime,
I lived by a sea where to be was a thing of true joy,
My people were fair and had sky in their hair,
But now they're content to wear stars on their brows.
