Letra
"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, Plowman dig my earth None will level on the line, nobody offered his word, 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 you and I, we've been through that And this is not our fate So let us not talk falsely now, the hour is getting late" All along the watchtower Princes kept the view While all the women came and went Barefoot servants, too Outside in the cold distance A wildcat did growl Two riders were approaching And the wind began to howl *Buisness man there, drink my wine, Come and take my herb. - Stone free

Letra
Well she's walking through the clouds With a circus mind That's running wild Butterflies and zebras and moonbeams And fairly tales, That's all she ever thinks about Riding with the wind When I'm sad she comes to me With a thousand smiles She gives to me free It's alright, she says It's alright Take anything you want from me Anything Fly on, little wing - If 6 was 9
Letra
Yeah) (Sing a song, brother) If the sun refused to shine, I don't mind, I don't mind. (Yeah) If the mountains fell in the sea, Let it be, it ain't me. Got my own world to live through And I ain't gonna copy you. Now, if 6 turned up to be 9, I don't mind, I don't mind. If all the hippies cut off all their hair, I don't care, I don't care. Dig, cause I got my own world to live through And I ain't gonna copy you. White-collar conservatives flashing down the street Pointing their plastic finger at me. They're hoping soon my kind will drop and die, But I'm gonna wave my freak flag high. .. High! Hah, hah Fall mountains, just don't fall on me Go on mister Businessman, You can't dress like me. Nobody know what I'm talking about I've got my own life to live I'm the one that's gotta die When it's time for me to die So let me live my life the way... I want to. Yeah. ..

Letra
Anger he smiles tow'ring shiny metallic purple armour. Queen jealousy, envy waits behind him. Her fiery green gown sneers at the grassy ground. Blue are the life giving waters taking for granted, They quietly understand. Once happy turquoise armies lay opposite ready, But wonder why the fight is on. But they're all, bold as love. Yeah, they're all bold as love. Yeah, they're all bold as love. Just ask the Axis. My red is so confident he flashes trophies of war And ribbons of euphoria. Orange is young, full of daring but very unsteady for the first go 'round. My yellow in this case is no so mellow. In fact I'm trying to say it's frightened like me. And all of these emotions of mine keep holding me From giving my life to a rainbow like you. But I'm a yeah, I'm bold as love, Yeah yeah. Well, I'm bold, bold as love. Hear me talkin', girl. I'm bold as love. Just ask the Axis. He knows everything. Yeah, yeah. - Castles made of sand
Letra
Down the street you can hear her scream you're a disgrace As she slams the door in his drunken face And now he stands outside And all the neighbors start to gossip and drool He cries oh, girl you must be mad, What happened to the sweet love you and me had? Against the door he leans and starts a scene, And his tears fall and burn the garden green And so castles made of sand fall in the sea, eventually A little Indian brave who before he was ten, Played war games in the woods with his Indian friends And he built up a dream that when he grew up He would be a fearless warrior Indian Cheif Many moons past and more the dream grew strong until Tomorrow he would sing his first war song and fight his first battle But something went wrong, surprise attack killed him in his sleep that night And so castles made of sand melts into the sea, eventually There was a young girl, who's heart was a frown Cause she was crippled for life, And she couldn't speak a sound And she wished and prayed she could stop living, So she decided to die She drew her wheelchair to the edge of the shore And to her legs she smiled you wont hurt me no more But then a sight she'd never seen made her jump and say Look a golden winged ship is passing my way And it really didn't have to stop, it just kept on going... And so castles made of sand slips into the sea, eventually - Red house
Letra
There's a red house over yonder, that's where my baby stays. There's a red house over yonder, baby, that's where my baby stays. Well, I ain't been home to see my baby in about ninety nine and one half days, 'bout time I see her. Wait a minute, something's wrong. The key wont unlock the door. Wait a minute, something's wrong, baby. The key wont unlock the door. I got a bad, bad feeling that my baby don't live here no more. I might as well go on back down, Go back 'cross yonder over the hill. I might as well go back over yonder Way back yonder 'cross the hill, (That's where I come from) Cause if my baby don't love me no more. I know her sister will! - Voodoo child
Letra
Well, I stand up next to a mountain And I chop it down with the edge of my hand Yeah Well, I stand up next to a mountain And I chop it down with the edge of my hand Well, I pick up all the pieces and make an island Might even raise a little sand Yeah 'cause I'm a voodoo child Lord knows I'm a voodoo child baby I want to say one more last thing I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time I'll give it right back to ya one of these days Hahaha I said I didn't mean to take up all your sweet time I'll give it right back one of these days Oh yeah If I don't meet you no more in this world then uh I'll meet ya on the next one And don't be late Don't be late 'cause I'm a voodoo child voodoo child Lord knows I'm a voodoo child Hey hey hey I'm a voodoo child baby I don't take no for an answer Question no Yeah - Freedom
Letra

Letra
Angel came down from heaven yesterday She stayed with me just long enough to rescue he And she told me a story yesterday, About the sweet love between the moon and the deep blue sea And then she spread her wings high over me She said she's gonna come back 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 morning came unto me Silver wings silhouetted against the child's sunrise And my angel she said unto "today is the day for you to rise, Take my hand, you're gonna be my man, You're gonna rise" And she took high over yonder And I said "fly on my sweet angel, Fly on through the sky, Fly on my sweet angel, Forever I will be by your side" - Dolly dagger
Letra
Dolly Dagger Jimi Hendrix "First Rays of the New Rising Sun" Here comes Dolly Dagger Her love's so heavy, gonna make you stagger. Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge... Ah Drink up baby Been riding broomsticks since she was fifteen. Blown out all the other witches on the scene. She got a bull whip, just as long as your life. Her tongue can even scratch the soul out of the devil's wife. Well I seen her in action at the Player's Choice. Turnin' all the love men into Donner Boys. Hey, red hot mama you'd better step aside, This chicks gonna turn you to a block of ice. Look out Here comes Dolly Dagger, Her loves so strong gonna make you stagger baby. Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge. Ride over, Drink up, baby Hey! Yeah, look at old burnt out superman Tryin' shoot his dust off the sun. Katznjammer Kids are dead on the run True words of love To the end of time Charley Brown Better get some highway and clear out of town. Here comes Dolly Dagger, Her loves so heavy it's gonna make you stagger. Dolly Dagger, she ain't satisfied until she gets what she's after. She drinks the blood from a jagged edge. Better watch out baby, here comes your master,.. Drink up, drink right on up baby Watch out devon and give me a little bit of that heaven Dolly everybody get it on, get it on, get it on Dolly everybody get it on, get it on, get it on Dolly everybody get it on, get it on, get it on Dolly everybody get it on, get it on, get it on Get it on, get it on, get it on get it on, get it on, get it on Ooo, ooo, ooo, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooo, ooo, ooo, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooo, ooo, ooo, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooo, ooo, ooo, yeah, yeah, yeah Ooo, ooo, ooo, yeah, yeah, yeah - Star spangled banner
