Here's some more Soul into the mix.

Marvin Gaye - Sexual Healing


Ooh baby, now let's get down tonight
Baby I'm hot just like you love me
I need some lovin'
And baby, I can't hold it much longer
It's getting stronger and stronger
And when I get that feeling
I want Sexual Healing
Sexual Healing, oh baby
Makes me feel so fine
Helps to relieve my mind
Sexual Healing baby, is good for me
Sexual Healing is something that's good for me
Whenever blue tear drops are falling
And my emotional stability is leaving me
There is something I can do
I can get on the telephone and call you up baby, and
Honey I know you'll be there to heal me
The love you give to me will free me
If you don't know the things you're feeling
Oh I can tell you, darling, that it's Sexual Healing
Get up, Get up, Get up, Get up, let's make love tonight
Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, Wake up, 'cos you do it right
Baby I got sick this morning
A sea was storming inside of me
Baby I think I'm capsizing
The waves are rising and rising
And when I get that feeling
I want Sexual Healing
Sexual Healing is good for me
Makes me feel so fine, it's such a rush
Helps to relieve the mind, and it's good for us
Sexual Healing, baby, is good for me
Sexual Healing is something that's good for me
And it's good for me and it's so good to me
My baby ohhh
Come take control, just grab a hold
Of my body and mind soon we'll be making it
Honey, oh we're feeling fine
You're my medicine open up and let me in
Darling, you're so great
I can't wait for you to operate
I can't wait for you to operate
When I get this feeling, I need Sexual Healing

Shine - Collective Soul

Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find, what will I find
Lay me on the ground
Fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find, what will I find

Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down

Love is in the water
Love is in the air
Show me where to look
Tell me will love be there, love be there
Teach me how to speak
Teach me how to share
Teach me where to go
Tell me will love be there, love be there

Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down

Give me a word
Give me a sign
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find, what will I find
Lay me on the ground
Fly me in the sky
Show me where to look
Tell me what will I find, what will I find

Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down
Whoah, heaven let your light shine down

I'm gonna let it shine
I'm gonna let it shine etc.

I can't believe the crazy frog made it into here. Has someone reported it already?

Nice one on the Marvin, Yom. You've reminded me of one of my all time favourites, and the lyrics are RIGHT ON! >

Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler)
Marvin Gaye
Written by: Marvin Gaye/James Nyx

Dah, dah, dah, dah
dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah

Rockets, moon shots
Spend it on the have nots
Money, we make it
Fore we see it you take it
Oh, make you wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
This ain't livin', This ain't livin'. <<<
No, no baby, this ain't livin'.

No, no, no
Inflation no chance
To increase finance
Bills pile up sky high
Send that boy off to die.

Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life
Make me wanna holler
The way they do my life

Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah

Hang ups, let downs
Bad breaks, set backs
Natural fact is
I can't pay my taxes <<<<

Oh, make me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands
Yea, it makes me wanna holler
And throw up both my hands

Crime is increasing
Trigger happy policing
Panic is spreading
God know where we're heading
Oh, make me wanna holler
They don't understand

Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah
Dah, dah, dah

Mother, mother
Everybody thinks we're wrong
Who are they to judge us
Simply cause we wear our hair long.

Side A. / Track 3. ~ Taking Tiger Mountain (by Strategy)

The Fat Lady of Limbourgh - Brian Eno

Well I rang up Pantucci spoke to Lucia
Gave them all they needed to know

If affairs are proceeding as we're expecting
Soon enough the weak spots will show

I assume you understand that we have options on your time
And will ditch you in the harbour if we must

But if it all works out nicely, you'll get the bonus you deserve
From doctors we trust.

The Fat Lady of Limbourgh
Looked at the samples that we sent
And furrowed her brow

You would never believe that
She'd tasted Royalty and Fame
If you saw her now

But her sense of taste is such that she'll distinguish with her tongue
The subtleties a spectrograph would miss

And announce her decision while demanding her reward
A jelly fish kiss.


Now we checked out this duck quack
Who laid a big egg oh so black it shone just like gold.

And the kids from the city finding it pretty
Took it home and there it was sold

It was changing hands for weeks
Till someone left it by their fire
And it melted to a puddle on the floor
For it was only a candle a Roman scandal
Oh oh and now it's a pool.


That's what we're paid for
That's what we're paid for
That's what we're paid for here.

That's what we're paid for
That's what we're paid for
That's what we're paid for here.

-------
Don't know what the F*ck this is about ... but then I'm just being led by the pictures that Eno is conjuring ... especially her tongue

Angel Eyes words by Earl Brent music by Matt Denis

Try to think that love´s not around
Still it´s uncomfortably near
My old heart ain´t gaining no ground
Because my angel eyes ain´t here

Angel eyes, that old devil sent
They glow unbearably bright
Need I say that my love´s mispent
Mispent with angel eyes tonight

So drink up all you people
Order anything you see
Have fun you happy people
The drinks and the laughs are on me

Pardon me but I got to run
The fact´s uncommonly clear
Got to find who´s now number one
And why my angel eyes ain’t here
Oh, where is my angel eyes

Excuse me while I disappear
Angel eyes, angel eyes.

 

[Rambuchan]

We should be aware that the following lyrics are actually a vicious corruption of the original blues lyrics (no one really knows who wrote it). The gross distortion caused by the artist attributed below, has rent the song in twain, giving it an altogether different meaning. I have highlighted the falsifications in red.


RED HOUSE ~ Jimi Hendrix

There’s a red house over yonder
Oh, 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
I’ve just been in jail ninety-nine and one half days
Yeah, that’s a long time if you know what I meen
Wait minute something’s wrong
This key won’t unlock this door

Wait a minute something’s wrong
Oh the key won’t unlock this door
Hey, I have a bad feelin’
Lord, my baby don’t live here no more
She didn’t say a damn thing about leaving but I still got my guitar

Hey, I think I’ll go back over yonder
Way back over yonder across the hills
Hey, I think I’ll go back over yonder baby
Way back over yonder across the hills

Hey, my baby don’t love me no more
Lord, I know good and well that her sister will

The Man Who Sold The World


All the Madmen - David Bowie

Day after day
They send my friends away
To mansions cold and grey
To the far side of town
Where the thin men stalk the streets
While the sane stay underground

Day after day
They tell me I can go
They tell me I can blow
To the far side of town
Where it's pointless to be high
'Cause it's such a long way down
So I tell them that
I can fly, I will scream, I will break my arm

I will do me harm
Here I stand, foot in hand, talking to my wall
I'm not quite right at all...am I?

Don't set me free, I'm as heavy as can be
Just my librium and me
And my E.S.T. makes three

'Cause I'd rather stay here
With all the madmen
Than perish with the sadmen roaming free

And I'd rather play here
With all the madmen
For I'm quite content they're all as sane as me

(Where can the horizon lie
When a nation hides
Its organic minds in a cellar...dark and grim
They must be very dim)

Day after day
They take some brain away
Then turn my face around
To the far side of town
And tell me that it's real
Then ask me how I feel

Here I stand, foot in hand, talking to my wall
I'm not quite right at all
Don't set me free, I'm as helpless as can be
My libido's split on me
Gimme some good 'ole lobotomy

'Cause I'd rather stay here
With all the madmen
Than perish with the sadmen
Roaming free And I'd rather play here
With all the madmen
For I'm quite content
They're all as sane as me

[King Alexander]

Jimi Hendrix: Angel

Angel came down
From heaven yesterday,
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.

Then she spread her wings high over me.
She said,’I’ll come back again to see you tomorrow....

And 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 woman came home to me.
Silver wings silhouetted 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 mind,
And she took me high over yonder.....

And 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....

"B-Boy Stance"

Cassidy

[Swizz Beats]
Chillin' in the club in my b-boy stance
With my hoodie on and my gun in my pants

[Cassidy]
Yeah
Okay
I'm ready to get my drink on, on this one
Let's go

[Hook x2 - Swizz Beats]
Chillin' in the club in my b-boy stance
With my hoodie on and my gun in my pants
I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes

[Verse 1 - Cassidy]
I'm fresh to death, dressed to impress
Fresh for real, ***** dressed to kill
I'm the best for real, I was blessed with skill
The FS in my necklace still
I'm a threat for real, I come at niggas necks for real
Tryna build my success got me stressed for real
I'ma gain my respect cause I'm extra real
And I'm extra fly, you just extra high
If it wasn't for them drugs, you'd be extra shy
Knowin' if I throw them slugs you gon' testify
F' the extra ****, get an extra clip
I get some extra lip, just expect to die
I'll put a whole in your head, cause I hold bread
And my lawyer Johnny Cochran old head
Clappin' a pound, he ain't pattin' me down
And I stay strapped man I got my gat on me now

[Hook x2 - Swizz Beats]
Chillin' in the club in my b-boy stance
With my hoodie on and my gun in my pants
I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes

[Verse 2 - Cassidy]
I get it poppin' on the block like a B-Boy
If you cop a couple of rocks you get a free boy
You could take a couple of shots and get a key loy
If you try to take what I got, a stick me boy
See boy tryna **** around with me boy
Your wrist like ****in' a ***** with no see boy
I'm a gee boy, get smoked by the P boy
Coke by the key boy, got dope and the E boy
Me boy, I'm bout to take the industry over
Lifes a war, we was meant to be soldiers
I sat back for years and watched rap cats pretend to be Hova
Pretend to be BIG, pretend to be Pac, pretend to be hot
But all that pretendin' gon' eventually stop
And the slugs gonna eventually pop
Cause all the real thugs in the box or the penatentary oxe
VIP lookin' like a penetentary block

[Hook x2 - Swizz Beats]
Chillin' in the club in my b-boy stance
With my hoodie on and my gun in my pants
I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes

[Verse 3 - Cassidy]
Okay, I'm fresh to death like a million bucks
My Benz got big rims and my ceilin' lift up
Dependin' on how I'm feelin' might be wheelin' the truck
Either way the chicks still on my nuts
YanawutI'msayin', I ain't playin' with them niggas that be feelin' they tough
I ain't a killa but you still will get touched
I network, sweatshirt with the hood, got the steel in the ??
And my lil man feelin' the dutch while I chill in the cut
On my lean, chicks stealin' my stance
Chinese print on the jeans, chicks spillin' my pants
And I got the steel in my pants, don't grind on me
I can't dance I got the nine on me
?? mami fresh from the box mami
Got your panani wet cause I'm fresh to the socks mami
Fresh from the block mami, so I'm makin' it fun
See life a *****, but I'm makin' her cum and umm

[Hook x2 - Swizz Beats]
Chillin' in the club in my b-boy stance
With my hoodie on and my gun in my pants
I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes, I'm fresh ye-yes

 

[Yom]

Edit: @rbis4rbb It's "fresh to death," not "fresh ye-yes."

[King Alexander]

Lenny Kravitz: Mr. Cab Driver

Mr cab driver won’t you stop to let me in
Mr cab driver don’t like my kind of skin
Mr cab driver you’re never gonna win
Mr cab driver won’t you stop to pick me up
Mr cab driver I might need some help
Mr cab driver only thinks about himself
Here we go

Mr cab driver, mr cab driver
Mr cab driver, mr cab driver

Mr cab driver don’t like the way I look
He don’t like dreads he thinks we’re all crooks
Mr cab driver reads too many story books
Mr cab driver pass me up with eyes of fire
Mr cab driver thinks we’re all one sixty five’ers
Mr cab driver **** you I’m a survivor
Oh yeah, one more time, ahah

Let me in

Mr cab driver, mr cab driver
Mr cab driver, mr cab driver

 

[Yom]

I know this is breaking the rule, but I just have to post this song's lyrics.

Jimi Hendrix - Gypsy Eyes

Well I realize that I’ve been hypnotized,
I love your gypsy eyes
I love your gypsy eyes
Alright!

Hey!
Gypsy.

Way up in my tree I’m sitting by my fire
Wond’rin’ where in this world might you be
And knowin’ all the time you’re still roamin’ in the country side
Do you still think about me?
Oh my gypsy.

Well I walked right on to your rebel roadside
The one that rambles on for a million miles
Yes I walk down this road searchin’ for your love and ah my soul too
But when I find ya I ain’t gonna let go.

I remember the first time I saw you
The tears in your eyes look like they’re tryin’ to say
Oh little boy you know I could love you
But first I must make my get away
Two strange men fightin’ to the death over me today
I’ll try to meet cha by the old highway.
Hey!

Well I realize that I’ve been hypnotized, I love your gypsy eyes
I love your gypsy eyes
I love your gypsy eyes
I love your gypsy eyes
Alright!

I’ve been searchin’ so long my feet have made me lose the battle
Down against the road my weary knees they got me
Off to the side I fall but I hear a sweet call
My gypsy eyes is comin’ and I’ve been saved.

Oh I’ve been saved
That’s why I love you uh
Said I love you
Hey!
Love you uh
Lord I love you
Hey!

 

[Sickman]

And now...Something completely different!

Here's classical piece from the last scene of movie:
Dr. Strangelove Or: How I Learned To Stop Worrying and Love the Bomb

And if you haven't seen it, it would be maybe time.

Vera Lynn - We'll Meet Again

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I'm sure we'll meet again some sunny day
Keep smiling through, just the way you used to do
Till the blue skies chase the dark clouds far away

Now, won't you please say "Hello" to the folks that I know
Tell 'em it won't be long
'cause they'd be happy to know that when you saw me go
I was singing this song

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I'm sure we'll meet again some sunny day

MONOLOGUE: Yes, we'll meet again. Darlin', I don't know where and I don't know when. But
I KNOW we'll meet again one of these good ole sunshiny days. Ya know, darlin', all ya gotta
do is just keep on smilin' through you know just like you ALWAYS do, until the blue skies
chase the dark clouds far, far, far away. I wantcha to do me a favor, please say "Hello" to all
the folks that I know. Well, just tell 'em it won't be long. They'd be happy to know that when
you saw me go, I was standin' right here, singin' this song.

We'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when
But I know we'll meet again some sunny day

 

[Kan' Sharuminar]

Beautiful, Sickman definately one of my favourite films. And hey, I like that song too.

My current favourite song...fully recommend it to anyone. Very haunting.

James Blunt
Goodbye my Lover

Did I disappoint you or let you down?
Should I be feeling guilty or let the judges frown?
'Cause I saw the end before we'd begun,
Yes I saw you were blinded and I knew I had won.

So I took what's mine by eternal right.
Took your soul out into the night.
It may be over but it won't stop there,
I am here for you if you'd only care.

You touched my heart you touched my soul.
You changed my life and all my goals.
And love is blind and that I knew when,
My heart was blinded by you.

I've kissed your lips and held your head.
Shared your dreams and shared your bed.

I know you well, I know your smell.
I've been addicted to you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I am a dreamer but when I wake,
You can't break my spirit - it's my dreams you take.
And as you move on, remember me,
Remember us and all we used to be

I've seen you cry, I've seen you smile.
I've watched you sleeping for a while.
I'd be the father of your child.
I'd spend a lifetime with you.

I know your fears and you know mine.
We've had our doubts but now we're fine,
And I love you, I swear that's true.
I cannot live without you.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

And I still hold your hand in mine.
In mine when I'm asleep.
And I will bear my soul in time,
When I'm kneeling at your feet.

Goodbye my lover.
Goodbye my friend.
You have been the one.
You have been the one for me.

I'm so hollow, baby, I'm so hollow.
I'm so, I'm so, I'm so hollow.

Explorers' Club--Age of Impact

IMPACT 1: FATE SPEAKS
When every word has been written, when every line has been read
When every person cries for justice, and every partner drops dead
When every loss has been suffered, when every war has been fought
When every son's been laid to rest, when every lesson has been taught
There comes a time when you realize it's all over sooner or later
All of us together--stop pretending it's not
It's going down, it's going down--nobody listens, I can't believe it

When every breath has been drawn, when every sickness has been shared
When every soul has quit religion, when every priest has run scared
When all the actors take a last bow,
when all the big deals have gone down
When every cynic's crucified us, when every mother screams out loud
There comes a time when you realize it's all over, sooner or later
All of us together, stop pretending it's not
It's going down, it's going down--nobody listens, I can't believe it

Found asleep at the wheel, believing in things that are not real
Our reasons more of the same--pointless encounters, endless cliches
Things escape me time and again, running in circles while anarchy wins
Not me, I'm not going down! Refuse to sell out or lay down
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly, fate speaks
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly, fate speaks
Face my sentence in dispair, pacing the floor the enemy's there
I'm just so sick and tired of it all,
nothing but commerce makes my skin crawl
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly, fate speaks
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly, fate speaks

You think I've lost it for what I have said,
you've got the problem and it's all in your head
It's just too dark, it's just too real,
don't take for granted this chance we have to feel
Why do we take it, we're out of control--
it's getting worse now and we're selling our souls
It's just too dark, it's just too real,
don't take for granted this chance we have to feel

Why do we take it, we're out of control--
it's getting worse now and we're selling our souls
It's just too dark, it's just too real,
don't take for granted this chance we have to feel
You think I've lost it for what I have said,
you've got the problem and it's all in your head
It's just too dark, it's just too real,
don't take for granted this chance we have to feel
Fate speaks!

IMPACT 2: FADING FAST
In just a moment your life can slip away,
wasting time by wasting chances
When all that's left here is emptiness and hope,
it's always darkest before the dawn will show
So I've got to stay right just to see it,
I've got to rise up and be much more
There's nothing new here, my impact fading fast,
why seize the hour if I cannot make it last
The cynics laugh hard and the pundits write away,
the music's dying but its epitaph will say
It's not over yet, just to see it,
I've got to rise up and be--and be so much more
Believe I know it, I've got to be right...

There's a light at the end but a darkness begins
as I take the task at hand
For the glimpse I see is all that I need
just to try and understand why my fate has let it stand
Feel the meaning of power, the meaning of fear,
but it's death that's chasing me fast
So who really gives a damn if I make it at all,
I'm just another one that's passed
the pain of a marathon that lasts...

IMPACT 3: NO RETURNING
Just call me Mr. Dark, Mr. Negative--
I'm pessimistic, fatalistic with an attitude that's turned ballistic
No rhyme or reason, no symmetry and no excuse.
Let it go, flow with the chaos
Hold tight 'cause I can't refuse--fate speaks, fate speaks loudly

Can't you see there's no returning
once you've started on this road
you've lost everything you have and life is over--
no impact 'til you make it stronger

Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly
Fate speaks, fate speaks loudly

Can't you see there's no returning
once you've started on this road
you've lost everything you have and life is over--
no impact 'til you make it stronger

IMPACT 4: TIME ENOUGH
When every word has been written and every line has been read
When every person cries for justice, when every partner drops dead
When every loss has been suffered, when every war has been fought
When every son's been laid to rest, when every lesson has been taught
"...and this is the moment when you will make your impact...
an intensity found in your life when you make a real and profound difference...
seize it...seize it...rise up"
When all the actors take a last bow,
when all the big deals have all gone down
When every cynic has crucified us, when every mother screams out loud

There's nothing left to ask for, there's nothing left to say
The same old songs are playing again just like it's yesterday
There's nothing left to hope for, there's nothing left to be
It's all been done before, but maybe I'll wait right here and see
There's nothing left but boredom, there's nothing left but pain
There's nothing to do 'cause the suffering lasts
as it keeps you in its wake
I'd like to make a difference, yes I'd like to make one try
But who the hell am I fooling? There's barely time enough to die...

IMPACT 5: LAST CALL
I've heard enough, let's make it happen,
let's turn it over, make life a positive
No more excuses, I'm making progress,
I'm moving forward with new promises
There's nothing left but boredom, nothing left but pain,
there's barely time enough to die
It's all been done before, there's nothing left here,
there's nothing I can say--I can say...

Don't think it's me, I have no fear--
I feel it working, there's something new here
Let's make it worth it, still time to react--
we've come this far now to make an impact
Now wait here, can't you see I've just spelled out reality
It's no fun, but it's now or never--it's now or never
There's nothing left but boredom, nothing left but pain,
there's barely time enough to die
It's all been done before, there's nothing left here,
there's nothing I can say--I can say
So wait here, can't you see I've just spelled out reality
It's no fun, but it's now or never--it's now or never...

I've seen it, I've lived it, I know it--
I'll say this over and again, again, again
I've got it--last call, are you going down?
I've seen it, I've lived it, I know it--
last call, are you going down, down?
Last call, last call, last call, are you going down, down?
Last call, last call, last call, are you going down, down?
I've seen it, I've lived it, I know it--last call,
are you going down down down down down down down down down down down down down down, down down down? 'cause I'm not!

Are you guys writing the lyrics for the songs yourselves, or copying them from lyric websites?

 

[Yom]

@homeyg: I'm copying from websites that I see have correct lyrics. There's no need to spend the time to write out all the lyrics yourself. For instance, for the Purple Haze lyrics, his seemingly incomprehensible mumblings have mainly been deciphered by people who have the time to separate all the layers of sound and amplify his voice, which I would not do to get the lyrics right.

Here's some more Hendrix, by the way. I'll post some different stuff later (maybe one more Hendrix song first, though).

Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower (a cover of a Bob Dylan song, but a much better version, IMHO)

There must be some kind of way out of here
Said the joker to the thief
There’s too much confusion
I can’t get no relief
Businessman they drink my wine
Plow men dig my earth
None will level on the line
Nobody of it is worth
(Hey hey)

No reason to get excited
The thief he kindly spoke
There are many here among us
Who feel that life is but a joke but uh
But you and I we’ve been through that
And this is not our fate
So let us not talk falsely now
The hour’s getting late
(Hey)

(Hey)

All along the watchtower
Princes kept the view
While all the women came and went
Bare-foot servants to, but huh
Outside in the cold distance
A wild cat did growl
Two riders were approachin’
And the wind began to howl
(Hey)
(Oh)
All along the watchtower
Hear you sing around the watch
Gotta beware gotta beware I will
(Yeah)
(Ooh baby)
All along the watchtower

The first entry was copied from the album and then I altered these to what I was actually listening to ...

The Eno and others have been 'lifted' from the net, however I am listening to the albums prior to posting ... and that is a good thing

And now a song from my favourite album from by favourite group ... very trippy stuff

1973 - Hawkwind - Space Ritual (see Ram's thread for Pickie of Album cover)

Brainstorm - (Turner)

Standing on the runway waiting for take off
I wanna fly, wanna watch me flake off
I can't move 'cos the man has a rake off
You've gotta help me, help me to shake off

This body of mine
I gotta get out of this void
This body of mine
Cos I don't wanna be destroyed
This body of mine
And I don't wanna turn android
This body of mine
You've gotta help me avoid that
Brainstorm
Here I go
Brainstorm
Flying low
Brainstorm
I'm gonna miss it
Brainstorm
You bet I'll kiss it

Can't get no peace till I get into motion
Sign my release from this planet's erosion
Paranoia police have sussed out my potion
You gotta help me or there'll be an explosion in

This body of mine
I gotta get out of this void
This body of mine
Cos I don't wanna be destroyed
This body of mine
And I don't wanna turn android
This body of mine
You've gotta help me avoid that
Brainstorm
Here I go
Brainstorm
Flying low
Brainstorm
I'm gonna miss it
Brainstorm
You bet I'll kiss it
