lyrics

They came from western PA; drove a ways to California just to get away from the equilibrium, rocks and meats and hydrogen. He was James. He thought himself a wolfman, thought himself a big man, thought himself a wise man. Truth be told, he was just young gun staring at the setting sun, blinded by the gold corn. But he was saved somewhere along their way in the Midwest plains when they said…

"Come and be like us: MoonBats on the warpath, shaking off the red rust, living off of fairy dust, thumbing to west coast, hoping for a
miracle to see the show at Monterey”

Who was who? Who was Who. At first aid, Jimi in the background playing a recovery melody for James and company. And they said, “[W]e’re just fine. Who needs a miracle? Who needs America? Who needs a cure when we’re are alive, finally alive just like Jack said we were before!"

December 8,

Dear James,

Havent heard a thing. Mom and dad said you’ve gone away. Teacher says you’re nothing but the enemy. Preacher said you lost your way. But I bet you’re making something new.

So, I addressed this to Haight ‘cause I bet your hanging out on the wharf all day…digging them warlocks…singing up the sing-sing…dropping the hat in the bucket…wondering what is magic (WHAT IS MAGIC?)...and listening to the people say…

"Come and be like us: MoonBats on the warpath, shaking off the red rust, living off of fairy dust, thumbing to west coast, hoping for a
miracle to see the show at Monterey”
