You are the crown of creation
You are the crown of creation and you've got no place to go

Soon you'll attain the stability you strive for
In the only way that it's granted in a place among the fossils of our time

In loyalty to their kind they cannot tolerate our minds
In loyalty to our kind we cannot tolerate their obstruction

Life is change - how it differs from the rocks
I've seen their ways too often for my liking
New worlds to gain
My life is to survive and be alive for you

INSTRUMENTAL

Owsley and Charlie, twins of the trade come to the Poet's Room
Talking about the problems of the leaf and yes, it'll be back soon
There used to be tons of gold and green comin' up here from Mexico
A donde esta la planta, mi amigo, del sol

But Mexico is under the thumb of a man we call Richard
And he's come to call himself king
But he's a small-headed man and he doesn't know a thing
About how to deal for you, how to deal for you
There are millions of you now
I mean it's not as if you were alone
There are brothers everywhere
Just waiting for a toke on that gold and God knows how far it can go

You're famous Uncle Charlie for your Mexican smoke
You're a legend Owsley for your righteous dope
There were a half a million people on the lawn
And we sang to the faces in the dawn
How long must will young race wait for the jailer's time to end
How long must the Panther race wait for the iron bars to bend
No, no, no, no, no, nobody waits

When the truth is found to be lies
And all the joy within you dies
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love, love

When the garden's flowers, they are dead, yes
And your mind, your mind is so full of red
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

Your eyes, I say, your eyes may look like his
Yeah, but in your head, baby, I'm afraid you don't know where it is
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

Tears are running, they're all running down your breast
And your friends, baby, they treat you like a guest
Don't you want somebody to love
Don't you need somebody to love
Wouldn't you love somebody to love
You better find somebody to love

If you were a bird and you lived very high
You lean on the wind as the breeze came by
Say to the wind as it took you away
That's where I wanted to go today
And I do know that I need to have you around
And I do know that I need to have you around

Love, like a mountain springtime
Flashing through the rivers of my mind
It's what I feel for you - armadillo

You and me go walking south and we see all the world around us
The colors blind my eyes and my mind to all but you
And I do know that I need to have you around
And I do, I do know that I need to have you around

Stuck in a white dream

I have a house where I can go when there's too many people around me
I can sit and watch all the people down below goin' by me
Halfway down the stairs is a stair where I sit and think about you and me
I sit and think about you and me

But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin' by
Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die
When I die, when I'm high, when I die, when I die

If you were a cloud and you sailed up there
Sail on water as blue as air
You'd see me here in the fields and say
"Doesn't the sky look green today?"
Doesn't the sky look green

But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin' by
Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die
When I die, when I die, when I'm high, when I die, die, die, die, die

Look what's happening out in the streets
Got a revolution, got to revolution
Hey, I'm dancing down the street
Got a revolution, got to revolution
Ain't it amazing all the people I meet
Got a revolution, got to revolution
One generation got old, one generation got soul
This generation got no destination to hold
Pick up the cry

Hey, now it's time for you and me
Got a revolution, got to revolution
Hey, come on now, we're marching to the sea
Got a revolution, got to revolution
Who will take it from you, we will and who are we
We are volunteers of America
Volunteers of America
Volunteers of America
Volunteers of America
I got a revolution, got a revolution

Look what's happening out in the streets
Got a revolution, got to revolution
Hey, I'm dancing down the street
Got a revolution, got to revolution
Ain't it amazing all the people I meet
Got a revolution
We are volunteers of America
Yeah, we are volunteers of America
We are volunteers of America
Volunteers of America
Volunteers of America
Volunteers of America

One pill makes you larger and one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice when she's ten feet tall
And if you go chasing rabbits and you know you're going to fall
Tell 'em a hookah smoking caterpillar has given you the call
Call Alice when she was just small

When the men on the chessboard get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom and your mind is moving low
Go ask Alice, I think she'll know
When logic and proportion have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards and the Red Queen's on her head
Remember what the doormouse said, "Feed your head, feed your head."
