Conceived in liberty and dedicated to the one I love
Dedicated to the proposition that all men

3.Air

Lyricist:Arthur Terence Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Welcome, sulfur dioxide
Hello, carbon monoxide
The air, the air is everywhere
Breath deep while you sleep, breath deep

Bless you alcohol bloodstream
Save me nicotine lung steam
Incense, incense is in the air
Breath deep while you sleep breath deep

Cataclysmic ectoplasm, fall out atomic orgasm
Vapor and fume at the stone of my tomb
Breathing like a southern perfume
Eating at the stone of my tomb

Welcome, sulfur dioxide
Hello, carbon monoxide
The air, the air is everywhere
Breath deep while you sleep, breath deep
Deep, deep, deep, deep


All you have to do
Is give up all desires
All you have to do
Is say Om
Stay home
Say Om

Everyone should be Buddha

We are all one
No more war toys
Use high octane
And feel the tiger in your tank

Hustling is an honest profession

Hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with thee
Blessed art thou among women
And blessed is the fruit of thy womb (of the loom)
Holy Mary Mother of God, pray for us sinners
Now and at the hour of our death


5.Aquarius

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

When the moon is in the seventh hour
And Jupiter aligns with the Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the dawning of the age of Aquarius
The age of Aquarius, Aquarius, Aquarius


Harmony and understanding
Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystals revelations
And the minds true liberation
Aquarius, Aquarius

When the moon is in the seventh hour

7.Black Boys

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Black boys are delicious
Chocolate flavored love
Licorice lips like candy
Keep my cocoa handy

I have such a sweet tooth
When it comes to love

Once I tried a diet
Of quiet, rest, no sweets
But I went nearly crazy
And I went clearly crazy
Because I really craved for
Chocolate flavored treats, oow

Black boys are nutritious
(Nutritious)
Black boys fill me up
(Up)
Black boys are so damn yummy
They satisfy my tummy

I have such a sweet tooth
When it comes to love
Black black, black black
Black black, black black
Black boys

Oh it's gotta be the end of that old mean road
It's a dead dead dead dead end
My Friend


10.Donna

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Oh, once upon a looking-for-Donna-time
There was a sixteen year old virgin
Oh, Donna, oh, oh, Donna, oh, oh, oh
Looking for my Donna

I just got back from looking for Donna
San Francisco, psychedelic urchin
Oh, Donna, oh, oh, Donna, oh, oh, oh
Looking for my Donna

Have you seen
My sixteen year old tattooed woman?
Heard a story
She got busted for her beauty, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

Once upon a looking-for-Donna-time
There was a sixteen year old virgin
Oh, Donna, oh, oh, Donna, oh, oh, oh
Looking for my Donna

I've been to India and saw the yogi light
In South America the Indian smoke glows bright
I'm reincarnated and so are we all
And in this lifetime we'll rise before we fall, fall

Once upon a looking-for-Donna-time
There was a sixteen year old virgin
Oh, Donna, oh, oh, Donna, oh, oh, oh
Looking for my Donna

And I'm gonna show her life on earth can be sweet
Gonna lay my mutated self at her feet
And I'm gonna love her, make love to her
Till the sky turns brown
I'm evolving, I'm evolving through the drugs
That you put down

Once upon a looking-for-Donna-time
There was a sixteen year old virgin
Oh, Donna, oh, oh, Donna, oh, oh, oh
Looking for my Donna, looking for my Donna
Looking for my Donna, Donna


11.Don't Put It Down

Om mane padme om
On mane padme om
Folding the flag means taking care of the nation.
Folding the flag is putting it to bed for the night.
I fell through a hole in the flag
I'm falling through a hole in the flag
Help!

Don't put it down
Best one around
Crazy for the red blue and white
Crazy for the red blue and white

You look at me
What do you see
Crazy for the white red and blue
Crazy for the white red and blue

Cause I look different
You think I'm subversive
Crazy for the blue white and red
Crazy for the blue white and red

My heart beats true
For the red white and blue
Crazy for the blue white and red
Crazy for the blue white and red
And yellow fringe
Crazy for the blue white red and yellow


12.Easy To Be Hard

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

How can people be so heartless?
How can people be so cruel?
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold

How can people have no feelings?
How can they ignore their friends?
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no

And especially people who care about strangers
Who care about evil and social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people be so heartless?
You know I'm hung up on you
Easy to give in
Easy to help out

And especially people who care about strangers
Who say they care about social injustice
Do you only care about the bleeding crowd?
How about a needing friend?
I need a friend

How can people have no feelings?
How can they ignore their friends?
Easy to be hard
Easy to be cold
Easy to be proud
Easy to say no


13.Electric Blues

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Tell me who do you love man?
Tell me what man?
Tell me what's it you love man?
An old fashioned melody

Tell me what's it that moves you?
Tell me what's it that grooves you?
An old fashioned melody
But old songs leave you dead
We sell our souls for bread

We're all encased in sonic armor
Beltin' it out through chrome grenades
Miles and miles of Medusan chord
The electronic sonic boom

It's what's happening baby
It's where it's at, Daddy

They chain you and brainwash you
When you least suspect it
They feed your mass media
The age is electric

I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues

Thump, rackety, rack whop
Rock, folk rock, rhythm and blues
Electronics explodin', rackety clack
Thump, rackety, rack whop
Plugged in, turned on
Thump, rackety, rack whop
Rock, folk rock, rhythm and blues
Electronics explodin', rackety clack
Thump, rackety, rack whop
Plugged in, turned on

We're all encased in sonic armor
Beltin' it out through chrome grenades
Miles and miles of Medusan chord
The electronic sonic boom

It's what's happening baby
It's where it's at Daddy

They chain you and brainwash you
When you least suspect it
They feed your mass media
The age is electric

I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues

I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues
I got the electric blues

14.Frank Mills

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

I met a boy called Frank Mills
On September twelfth right here
In front of the Waverly
But unfortunately, I lost his address

He was last seen with his friend
A drummer, he resembles George Harrison of the Beatles
But he wears his hair
Tied in a small bow at the back

I love him but it embarrasses me
To walk down the street with him
He lives in Brooklyn somewhere
And wears this white crash helmet

He has golden chains on his leather jacket
And on the back oh written the names
Mary and Mom
And hell's angels

I would gratefully
Appreciate it if you see him, tell him
I'm in the park with my girlfriend
And please

Tell him Angela and I
Don't want the two dollars back
Just him


15.Going Down

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Me and Lucifer, Lucifer and me

Just like the angel that fell
Banished forever to hell
Today how I've been expelled
From high school heaven

Elevator going down
Going down, going down
Everybody going down
Going down, going down

High school dropout, don't give up
Dial 007-7390 for our free booklet
Telling how you can get it at home

This is my doom, my humiliation
October not June and it's summer vacation
Such a disgrace, how can I face the nation?
Why should this pain bring me such strange elation?

Everybody going down
Going down, going down
Everybody going down
Going down, going down

Emancipation, proclamation
Oh Dr. Lincoln, my head needs shrinkin'
Lu-Lu-Lucifer and me
Doomed from here to eternity

Everybody going down
Down, down, going down
Everybody going down
Down, down, going down

Down, down, everybody going
Down, down, everybody going

(Down, down, everybody going)
Forgive me if I don't cry
(Down, down, everybody going)
It's like the fourth of July
(Down, down, everybody going)
Thank God that angels can fly

Down, down, down, going
Down, down, down, going
Down, down, down, going down

17.Hair

Lyricist:James Rado, Gerome Ragni

She asks me why
I'm just a hairy guy
I'm hairy noon and night
Hair that's a fright

I'm hairy high and low
Don't ask me why don't know
It's not for lack of break
Like the grateful dead, darling

Gimme head with hair
Long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming
Streaming, flaxen, waxen

Give me down to there hair
Shoulder length or longer
Here baby, there mama
Everywhere daddy daddy

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it
My hair

Let it fly in the breeze
And get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas
In my hair

A home for fleas
A hive for bees
A nest for birds there ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of my

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it

I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
Oily, greasy, fleecy
Shining, gleaming, streaming, flaxen, waxen

Knotted, polka-dotted
Twisted, beaded, braided
Powdered, flowered, and confettied
Bangled, tangled, spangled, and spaghettied

Oh, say can you see
My eyes
If you can
Then my hair's too short

Down to here
Down to there
Down to there
Down to where
It stops by itself

They'll be ga ga at the go go
When they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond
Brilliantined biblical hair

My hair like Jesus wore it
Hallelujah, I adore it
Hallelujah, Mary loved her son
Why don't my mother love me?

Hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it

My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it

My hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair
Flow it, show it
Long as God can grow it

24.Manchester England

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Manchester England, England
Across the Atlantic Sea
And I'm a genius, genius
I believe in God
And I believe that God
Believes in Claude
That's me, that's me

Claude Hooper Bukowski
Finds that it's groovy
To hide in a movie
Pretends he's Fellini
And Antonioni
And also his countryman Roman Polanski
All rolled into one
One Claud Hooper Bukowski

Now that I've dropped out
Why is life dreary, dreary?
Answer my weary query
Timothy Leary dearie

Oh Manchester England, England
Across the Atlantic sea
And I'm a genius, genius
I believe in God
And I believe that God
Believes in Claude
That's me
(That's he)
That's me
(That's he)
That's me
(That's he)
That's me


25.My Conviction

Lyricist:Galt Mac Dermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

I would just like to say that it is my conviction
That longer hair and other flamboyant affectations
Of appearance are nothing more
Than the male's emergence from his drab camouflage
Into the gaudy plumage

Which is the birthright of his sex
There is a peculiar notion that elegant plumage
And fine feathers are not proper for the man

When actually
That is the way things are
In most species


26.Sodomy, Holy Orgy

Sodomy
Fellatio
Cunnilingus
Pederasty

Father, why do these words sound so nasty?

Masturbation
Can be fun
Join the holy orgy
Kama Sutra
Everyone!


27.The Bed

Oh the bed
Oooh the bed
Ahhh the bed
Oh the bed
Mmmm the bed
I love the bed

You can lie in bed
You can lay in bed
You can die in bed
You can pray in bed
You can live in bed
You can laugh in bed
You can give your heart
Or break your heart in half in bed

You can tease in bed
You can please in bed
You can squeeze in bed
You can freeze in bed
You can sneeze in bed
Catch the fleas in bed
All of these
Plus eat crackers and cheese in bed

Oh the bed is a thing
Of feather and spring
Of wire and wood
Invention so good

Oh the bed comes complete
With pillow and sheet
With blanket electric
And breath antiseptic

Let there be sheets
Let there be beds
Foam rubber pillows
Under our heads

Let there be sighs
Filling the room
Scanty pajamas
By Fruit of the Loom

You can eat in bed
You can beat in bed
Be in heat in bed
Have a treat in bed
You can rock in bed
You can roll in bed
Find your cock in bed
Lose your soul in bed

You can lose in bed
You can win in bed
But never never never never
Never never never never
Never never never
Never can you sin in bed!


28.The Flesh Failures, Let The Sunshine In

We starve-look
At one another
Short of breath
Walking proudly in our winter coats
Wearing smells from laboratories
Facing a dying nation
Of moving paper fantasy
Listening for the new told lies
With supreme visions of lonely tunes

Somewhere
Inside something there is a rush of
Greatness
Who knows what stands in front of
Our lives
I fashion my future on films in space
Silence
Tells me secretly
Everything
Everything

Manchester England England
Manchester England England
Eyes look your last
Across the Atlantic Sea
Arms take your last
embrace
And I'm a genius genius
And lips oh you the
doors of breath
I believe in God
Seal with a righteous kiss
And I believe that God believes in Claude
Seal with a righteous kiss
That's me, that's me, that's me
The rest is silence
The rest is silence
The rest is silence

Singing
Our space songs on a spider web sitar
Life is around you and in you
Answer for Timothy Leary, dearie

Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sunshine in
Let the sunshine
Let the sunshine in
The sun shine in...

Oh my God your skin is soft
I love your face

How dare they try
To end this beauty?
How dare they try
To end this beauty?

To keep us under foot
They bury us in soot
Pretending it's a chore
To ship us off to war

In this dive
We rediscover sensation
In this dive
We rediscover sensation

Walking in space
We find the purpose of peace
The beauty of life
You can no longer hide

Our eyes are open
Our eyes are open
Our eyes are open
Our eyes are open

Wide, wide, wide


31.What A Piece Of Work Is Man

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

What a piece of work is man
How noble in reason
How infinite in faculties
In form and moving
How express and admirable

In action how like an angel
In apprehension how like a God
The beauty of the world
The paragon of animals

I have of late
But wherefore I know not
Lost all my mirth
This goodly frame
The earth seems to me
A sterile promontory

This most excellent canopy
The air look you
This brave overhanging firmament
This majestical roof

Fretted with golden fire
Why it appears no other thing to me
Than a foul and pestilent congregation
Of vapors

What a piece of work is man
How noble in reason


32.Where Do I Go?

Lyricist:Galt Macdermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

Where do I go?
Follow the river
Where do I go?
Follow the girls
Where is the something?
Where is the someone?
That tells me why I live and die

Where do I go?
Follow the children
Where do I go?
Follow their smiles
Is there an answer?
In their sweet faces
That tells me why I live and die

Follow the wind song
Follow the thunder
Follow the neon in young lovers' eyes
Down to the gutter
Up to the glitter
Into the city
Where the truth lies?

Where do I go?
Follow my heartbeat
Where do I go?
Follow my hand
Where will they lead me?
And will I ever
Discover why I live and die?

Follow the wind song
Follow the thunder
Follow the neon in young lovers' eyes
Down to the gutter
Up to the glitter
Into the city
Where the truth lies?

Where do I go?
Follow my heartbeat
Where do I go?
Follow my hand
Where do they lead me?
And will I ever
Discover why I live and die?
I live and die?

Why do I live?
Why do I die?
Where do I go
Tell my why?
Tell me where?
Tell my why?
Tell me where?
Tell me why?


33.White Boys

Lyricist:Galt Mac Dermot, James Rado, Gerome Ragni

White boys are so pretty
Skin as smooth as milk
White boys are so pretty
Hair like Chinese silk

White boys give me goose bumps
White boys give me chills
When they touch my shoulder
That's the touch that kills

My momma calls 'em lilies
I call 'em piccadilly's
My daddy warns me stay away
But I say come on out and play

White boys are so groovy
White boys are so tough
Every time they're near me
I just can't get enough

White boys are so pretty
White boys are so sweet
White boys drive me crazy
Drive me indiscreet

White boys are so sexy
Legs so long and lean
Love those sprayed on trousers
I love the love machine

My brother calls 'em rubble
That's my kind of trouble
My daddy warns me no no no
But I say white boys go go go

White boys are so lovely
Beautiful as girls
Love to run my fingers
And toes through all their curls

Give me a tall
A lean
A sexy
A pretty
A groovy
A juicy
White boy
Oh ya give me one more
White boy
Yea yea yea yea
White boy
I'm not in love, come inside me yeah
White boy
Ooh yea give me one more
White boy
Ooh
White boy
Ooh
White boy
Ooh
White boy
