they wanted Camelot,
Bay of Big Wigs is
what they got;
Bongo Congo
LSD
Chemical Warfare
ABC
shoot the war
on videotape
ride the Freedom Bus
we must escape
shoot that rocket at the moon
take out my heart
and give it to someone
who won't think about
how fucked this all is:
a pope who cries
about starvation in India
and bans the pill the next day;
favors vatican roulette
and rhythm and blues;
succumbs to motown
and
mass murder from a tower
strikes once
upon the hour.
rock and roll can save
your soul
and if you slow down time
you will never grow old.
yeah,
we churned out mythology
pretty fuckin' fast,
but you know,
paper nirvana
it really don't last.........................
