3RD STONE FROM THE SUN

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 said to have some
form of intelligent species. Over.
I think we should take a look.

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

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

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

For 50 years they've been married
They can't wait for their 51st, to roll around
Yeah! Roll around.

For 30 years they've been married
And now they're old and happy
Now they've settled down. Haha, settled down. Yeah.

20 years they've been married,
And they did everything that,
that could be done.
You know, they had their fun.

And then you come along and talk about
So you, you say you wanna be married.
I'm gonna change your mind. Woah!

For ten years they've been married
A thousand years went around
A thousand kids went around homeless
‘Cause their Mom was a louse
Daddy's down at the whiskey house

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 herself a lover
Huh! Same old thing.

And now you're seventeen
Run around hanging out,
and uh, having your fun.
Life for you has just begun, baby.

And then you come saying
So you, you say you wanna be married
Oh, baby, trying to put me on a chain,
ain't that a shame
You must be loosing your sweet little mind
I'm gonna change your mind

 There must be some kind of way out of here
 Said the joker to the theif
 There's too much confusion
 I can't get no relief
 Business men they drink my wine
 Plowmen dig my earth
 None will level on the wine
 Nobody of it is worth

 No reason to get exited
 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 talk falsely now
 The hour's getting late

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 going to come back tomorrow

An' 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 on to me
Silver-winged silhouette against a 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 yonder, Lord

If you can just get your mind together
uh-then come on across to me
We'll hold hands and then we'll
watch the sunrise
from the bottom of the sea

But first, are you experienced?
Uh-have you ever been experienced-uh?
Well, I have

(Well) 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 tryin' to prove to that you're
made out of gold and-uh, can't be sold

So-uh, are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?
Well, I have
Uh, let me prove it to you, yeah

Trumpets and violins I can-uh, hear in the distance
I think they're callin' our name
Maybe now you can't hear them,
but you will, ha-ha, if you just
take hold of my hand
Ohhh, but are you experienced?
Have you ever been experienced?

Anger he smiles tow'ring 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 taking 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.
Yeah, they're all bold as love.
Yeah, they're all bold as love.
Just ask the Axis.

My red is so confident 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 no so mellow.
In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me.
And all of these emotions of mine keep holding me
from giving my life to a rainbow like you.
But I'm a yeah, I'm bold as love,
yeah yeah.

Can you see me blaming you on my knee?
Wo, yeah. Can you see me, baby?
Baby, please don't leave. All right.
If you can see me doing that
you can see in the future of a thousand years.

Can you hear me crying all over town?
Yeah, babe. Can you hear me, baby,
crying 'cause you put me down? All right.
If you can hear me doing that
you can hear a freight train coming from a thousand years.

Can you hear me singing this song to you?
Oh you better open up your ears, baby.
Can you hear me, baby, singing this song to you?
Aw shucks
If you can hear me sing
you better come home like you s'posed to do.

Down the street you can hear her scream, "You're a disgrace,"
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 Inidan chief.
Many moons past and more the dream grew stronger,
until tomorrow he would sing his first war song
and made his first battle but something went wrong
suprise 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 wheelchair 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."

 You jump in front of my car when you,
 you know all the time
 Ninty miles an hour, girl, is the speed I drive
 You tell me it's alright, you don't mind a little pain
 You say you just want me to take you for a drive

 You're just like crosstown traffic
 So hard to get through to you
 Crosstown traffic
 I don't need to run over you
 Crosstown traffic
 All you do is slow me down
 And I'm tryin' to get on the other side of town

 I'm not the only soul who's accused of hit and run
 Tire tracks all across your back
 I can, I can see you had your fun
 But, darlin' can't you see my signals turn from green to red
 And with you I can see a traffic jam straight up ahead

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

the soul out of the devil’s wife.

The tears in your eyes looked like they's tryin' to say.

No sun comin' through my windows
Feel like I'm livin' at the bottom of a grave
No-ho sun comin' through my windows
Feel like I'm livin' at the bottom of a grave
I wish you'd hurry up and execute me

 If the sun refuse to shine,
 I don't mind, I don't mind,
 If the mountains fell in the sea,
 let it be, it ain't me.
 Alright, 'cos I got my own world to look through,
 And I ain't gonna copy you.

 Now if 6 turned out to be 9,
 I don't mind, I don't mind,
 Alright, if all the hippies cut off all their hair,
 I don't care, I don't care.
 Dig, 'cos I got my own world to live through
 And I ain't gonna copy you.

Once upon a time you dressed so fine
Threw the bums a dime in your prime, didn't you
Peopled called you, said "beware the doll, you're bound to fall",
You thought they were all kidding you
You used to laugh about
Everybody else that was hanging out
Now you don't talk so loud
Now you don't seem so proud
About having to be scrounging around for your next meal

How does it feel
How does it feel
To be on your own
In no direction home
Like a complete unknown
Like a rolling stone

 Well, she's walking through the clouds,
 With a circus mind that's running wild,
 Butterflies and Zebras,
 And Moonbeams and fairy tales.
 That's all she ever thinks about.
 Riding with the wind.

 Is that the stars in the sky or is it raining far from now?
 Will it burn me if I touch the sun,
 so bit, so round?
 Will I be truthful, yeah,
 in choosing you as the one for me?

 Is this love baby,
 or is it-a just confusion?

 Oh, my mind is so mixed up, goin' round 'n' round_
 Must there be all these colors without names,
 without sounds?
 My heart burns with feelin' but
 Oh! but my mind is cold and reeling.

 Is this love, baby
 or is it confusion?

Manic depression is touchin' my soul
I know what I what but I just don't know
how to, heh, go about gettin' it
Feeling, sweet feeling,
drops from my fingers, fingers
Manic depression is a-catchin' my soul...yeah

Woman so weary, the sweet cause in vain
You make love, you break love
its-a all the same
when its, when its over, mama
Music, sweet music,
I wish I could caress, caress, caress
Manic depression is a fustrating mess

Ooo-ow {cough}
Dooo
Dooo
Dooo
Dooo

Cry on, guitar

Well, I think I'll go turn myself off,
and-a, uh-huh, go on down
All the way down
Really ain't no use in me hanging around
in, uh-huh, your kind-a scene

Music, sweet music
I wish I could caress, and-a kiss, kiss
Manic depression is a fustratin' mess

Oh, ah
Dig
Ow

[fades in] (Music, sweet ?) music, sweet music, sweet music, ah

[fades in/out/in] (music, sweet ?) music, (sweet) music, yeah

Dooo
Oooo

 Purple Haze was in my brain,
 lately things 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.

There's a red house over yonder
That's where my baby stays
Lord there's a red house over yonder
Lord that's where my baby stays
I ain't been home to see my baby
in ninety nine and one half days

Wait a minute something's wrong here
The key won't unlock this door
Wait a minute something's wrong
Lord have mercy
This key won't unlock this door
Something's gone wrong here
I have a bad bad feeling
that my baby don't live here no more

That's alright I still got my guitar
Look out now

That's alright

It's very far away
It takes about a half and a day to get there
If we travel by my uh, dragon-fly
No it's not in Spain
But all the same you know, it's a groovy name
And the wind's just right.
Hey !

Hang on my darling
Hang on if you wanna go
Here it's a really groovy place
It's uh, just a little bit of uh, said uh, Spanish Castle Magic.

The clouds are really low
And they overflow with cotton candy
And battle grounds red and brown
But it's all in your mind
Don't think your time on bad things
Just float your little mind around
Look out ! Ow !

Hang on my darling, yeah
Hang on if you wanna go
Get on top, really let me groove baby with uh
Just a little bit of SpanishCastle Magic.
Yeah baby, here's some
Yeah, ok babe, ok
It's still all in your mind babe
Oww !
Yeah !

Ah !

Every day in the week I'm in the pit of the city
If I stay too long  The people try to pull me down
They talk about me like a dog  Talk about the clothes I wear
But they don't realize  They're the one's who's square
Hey That's why you can't hold me down
I don't want to be down  I got to move on

CHORUS:
        Stone Free  To do what I please
        Stone Free  To ride the breeze
        Stone Free  I can dare
        I got to  Got to  Got to get away    Right now  Yeah

Alright  Listen to this Baby
Women here  Women there  Try to keep me in a plastic cage
But they don't realize  It's so easy to break
Oh But I sometimes  I just  I just feel my heart kinda running hot
That's when I got to 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 got to be free       Oh I said

CHORUS:

Yeah    Turn me loose Baby

SOLO

After all the jacks are in the boxes
And the clowns have all gone to bed
You can hear happiness
staggering on down the 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 stays downstream
Cause the life that lived is
Is dead

And the wind screams  Mary

Will the wind ever remember
The names it has blown in the past
And with this crutch  It's old age
And it's wisdom
It whispers
No This will be the last

 Well, I stand up next to a mountain
 And I chop it down with the edge of my hand
 Well, I stand up next to a mountain
 Chop it down with the edge of my hand
 Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island
 Might even raise just a little sand
 'Cause I'm a voodoo child
 Lord knows I'm a voodoo child

Wild thing, you make my heart sing
You make, uh, everything groovy.
Yeah! Wild thing!

Wild thing, I think you move me.
But I wanna know for sure.
Come an' a sock it to me one time.

You move me, look out!

Wild thing, you make my heart sing
You make, uh, everything groovy.
Is that right? Wild thing, yeah!

Wild thing, I think I love you.
But I wanna know for sure.
Come an' a sock it to me one time.

You move me, look out!

Wild thing, you make my heart sing
You make, uh, everything groovy.
Is that right? Wild thing, yeah!

Well, I'm standing here, freezing, inside your golden garden
Uh got my ladder, leaned up against your wall
Tonight's the night we planned to run away together
Come on Dolly Mae, there's no time to stall
But now you're telling me...

I think we better wait till tomorrow
Hey, yeah, hey
(I think we better wait till tomorrow)
Girl, what 'chu talkin' 'bout ?
(I think we better wait till tomorrow)
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Got to make sure it's right, so until tomorrow, goodnight.
Oh, what a drag.

Oh, Dolly Mae, how can you hang me up this way ?
Oh, on the phone you said you wanted to run off with me today
Now I'm standing here like some turned down serenading fool
Hearing strange words stutter from the mixed mind of you
And you keep tellin' me that ah...

I think we better wait till tomorrow
What are you talkin' 'bout ?
(I think we better wait till tomorrow)
No, can't wait that long
(I think we better wait till tomorrow)
Oh, no
Got to make sure it's right, until tomorrow, goodnight, oh.
Let's see if I can talk to this girl a little bit here...

Ow ! 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
Hey !
We don't have to wait till tomorrow
What you say ?
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
It must have been right, so forever, goodnight, listen at 'cha.

(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Ah ! Do I have to wait ? Don't have to wait
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
It's a drag on my part
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Don't have to wait, uh, hmm ! Ah,no !
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Don't have to wait, don't have to wait, yeah !
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Don't have to wait, don't have to wait
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)

Oh, oh
I won't be around tomorrow, yeah !
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Don't have to wait
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Goodbye, bye bye !
(We don't have to wait till tomorrow)
Oh, what a mix up
Oh, you gotta be crazy, hey, ow!
Don't have to wait till tomorrow

 You got me floatin' round and round,
 Always up, you never let me down
 The amazing thing, you turn me on naturally,
 And I kiss you when I please.

 You got me floatin' round and round,
 You got me floatin' never down
 You got me floatin' naturally
 You got me floatin' float to please

 You got me floatin' across and through
 You make me float right on up to you
 There's only one thing I need to really get me there,
 Is to hear you laugh without a care.

 You got me floatin' round and round,
 You got me floatin' never down
 You got me floatin' naturally
 You got me floatin' float to please

 You got me floatin' round and round,

 You got me floatin' naturally
 You got me floatin' float to please

 Now your Daddy's cool, and your Mamma's no fool,
 They both know I'm heads over heels for you,
 And when the day melts down into a sleepy red glow,
 That's when my desires start to show.

 You got me floatin' round and round,
 You got me floatin' never down
 You got me floatin' naturally
 You got me floatin' float to please.
