1. 5D (FIFTH DIMENSION)

Oh how is it that I could come out to here and be still floating
And never hit bottom and keep falling through
Just relaxed and paying attention
All my two dimensional boundaries were gone I had lost to them badly
I saw the world crumble and thought I was dead
But I found my senses still working

And as I continued to drop thru the hole
I found all the surrounding
Who showed me the joy that innocently is
Just be quiet and feel it around you

And I opened my heart to the whole universe and I found it was loving
And I saw the great blunder my teacher's had made
Scientific delirium madness

I will keep falling as long as I live
All without ending
And I will remember the place that is now
That has ended before the beginning

Oh how is it that I could come out to here and be still floating
And never hit bottom and keep falling through
Just relaxed and paying attention


2. WILD MOUNTAIN THYME

Oh the summer time is coming
And the leaves are sweetly turning
And the wild mountain thyme
Blooms across the purple heather
Will you go lassie go

If you will not go with me
I will surely find another
To pull wild mountain thyme
All across the purple heather
Will you go lassie go

And we'll all go together
To pull wild mountain thyme
All across the purple heather
Will you go lassie go


3. MR. SPACEMAN

Woke up this morning with light in my eyes
And then realized it was still dark outside
It was a light comin'down from the sky
I don't know who or why

Must be those strangers that come every night
Whose saucers shaped light put people up tight
Leave blue green footprints that glow in the dark
I hope they get home all right

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride

Woke up this mornin', I was feeling quite weird
Had flies in my beer, my tooth paste was smeared
I opened my window, they'd written my name
Said: "So long, we'll see you again".

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride

Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
I won't do anything wrong
Hey Mr.Spaceman, won't you please take me along
For a ride


4. I SEE YOU

Isee you
Under there behind your hair
Everywhere, I see you

I see you
Turned on eyes can't tell lies
Empathise, I see you
Warm sliding sun through the cave of you hair
Wind washing fields kind of space living there
I see you

Who lives there?
Tell old fair I'm aware
That she cares, who lives there?

We thought how
For a while they just smile
Just a silent thught

I see you
Sun is there behind your hir
Everywhere, I see you
I see you


5. WHAT'S HAPPENING?!?!

I don't know who you think you are
I don't know what you're doing here

I don't know what's going on here
I don't know how it's supposed to be

I, I don't have the vaguest notion
Whose it is or what it's all for

I don't know, I'm not cryin'
Laughin' mostly as you can see


6. I COME AND STAND AT EVERY DOOR

I come and stand at every door
But no one hears my silent prayer
I knock and yet remain unseen
For I am dead, for I am dead

I'm only seven although I died
In Hiroshima long ago
I'm seven now as I was then
When children die they do not grow

My hair was scorched by swirling fire
My eyes grew dim, my eyes grew blind
Death came and turned my bones to dust
And that was scattered by the wind

I need no fruit, I need no rice
I need no sweets nor even bread
I ask for nothing for myself
For I am dead, for I am dead

All that I ask is that for peace
You fight today, you fight today
So that the children of this world
May live and grow and laugh and play


7. EIGHT MILES HIGH

Eight miles high and when you touch down
You'll find that it's stranger than known
Signs in the street that say where you're going
Are somewhere just being their own

Nowhere is there warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain gray town known for its sound
In places small faces unbound

Round the squares huddled in storms
Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
Some living, some standing alone


8. HEY JOE (WHERE YOU GONNA GO)

Hey Joe where you goin' with that money in your hand
Hey Joe where you goin' with that money in your hand
I'm gonna find my woman she's runnin' around with some other man

I'm gonna go down town buy me a blue steel 44
I'm gonna go down town, gonna buy me a blue steel 44
When I find my woman she's not gonna run any more

Hey Joe I hear you shot your woman dead
Hey Joe I hear you've shot your woman dead
Yes I did you know I found them both in the same damn bed

Hey Joe where you gonna go
Hey Joe where you gonna go
I guess I go to my favourite Mexico

I guess I go down where a man can be free
I guess I go down where a man can be free
Ain't no damned old hangman gonna put a noose around me

Hey Joe where are you goin' with that gun in your hand
Hey Joe where are you goin' with all a that cash

10. JOHN RILEY

Fair young maid all in her garden
Strange young man come riding by
Saying "fair young maid will you marry me?"
And this answer was her reply

"Oh no dear sir I cannot marry thee
For I've a love who sails the deep salt sea
Though he's been gone for seven years
Still no man shall marry me"

"What if he's died all in some battle slain?
Or if he's drowned dead in the deep salt sea
What if he's found another love
He and his new love both married be?"

"Well if he's died all in some battle slain
Or if he's drownded in the deep salt sea
I'll remember his good name
And still no man shall marry me

And if he's found some other love
He and his true love both married be
I wish them health and happiness
Where they now live all across the sea"

He picked her up all in his arms
And kisses gave her one two and three
Saying "weep no more my own true love
For I'm your long lost John Riley"


11. 2-4-2 FOX TROT (THE LEAR JET SONG)

Go ride the Lear Jet, baby
Go ride the Lear Jet
Go ride the Lear Jet, baby
