Just Another Song

So ya wanna hear another 'love song'

About Peace, Love and Drugs;

Rainbow days

And purple haze;

Avalon dancing with the Fugs.

Strawberry Alarm Clock, Electric Prunes,

The Grateful Dead playing their tunes.

Jefferson Airplane

And Country Joe

'Further'ing down 'on the road' to go.

Would you rather hear another 'blues song'

About heroin knights and such

Lady Day

Caught in the haze

Of a whiskey soaked bayou club.

Muddy Waters and John Lee

Huddy Ledbetter, Albert and B.B..

Howlin' Wolf

And Sonny Boy

Jamming and slamming, playing it coy.

I can't sing you any of 'those songs'

Because they've already been sung.

But maybe 'The Muses'

That shine in the sky

May show me how to fly.

I look at the world, and all I can see

Is staccato fear and apathy.

There is no rhythm to the rhyme

And I can't tell you why.

So, I'm going to play just 'another song'

About Peace, Love and Drugs;

Rainbow days

And purple haze;

Avalon dancing with the Fugs.

Strawberry Alarm Clock, Electric Prunes,

The Grateful Dead playing their tunes.

Jefferson Airplane

And Country Joe

'Further'ing down 'on the road' to go.
