A Goddess on a mountain top
Was burning like a silver flame
The summit of Beauty in love
And Venus was her name
She's got it yeah, Baby, she's got it.
Well, I'm your Venus, I'm your fire
At your desire
Her weapon were her crystal eyes
Making every man mad
Black as the dark night she was
Got what no-one else had
Wa!
Hello darkness, my old friend,
I've come to talk with you again,
Because a vision softly creeping,
Left its seeds while I was sleeping,
And the vision that was planted in my brain
Still remains
Within the sound of silence.
In restless dreams I walked alone
Narrow streets of cobblestone,
'Neath the halo of a street lamp,
I turned my collar to the cold and damp
When my eyes were stabbed by the flash of a neon light
That split the night
And touched the sound of silence.
And in the naked light I saw
Ten thousand people, maybe more.
People talking without speaking,
People hearing without listening,
People writing songs that voices never share
And no one dare
Disturb the sound of silence.
"Fools" said I, "You do not know
Silence like a cancer grows.
Hear my words that I might teach you,
Take my arms that I might reach you."
But my words like silent raindrops fell,
And echoed
In the wells of silence
And the people bowed and prayed
To the neon god they made.
And the sign flashed out its warning,
In the words that it was forming.
And the sign said, "The words of the prophets
are written on the subway walls
And tenement halls."
And whisper'd in the sounds of silence.
Sir Douglas Quintet is back.
We'd like to thank all our beautiful friends all over the country,
and all the beautiful vibrations.

Well we invited just a few close friends
sha-la-la-la-lee - yeah
I sit here every day looking at the sky
Ever wondering why I dream my dreams a way
And I'm living for today in my mind's eye
Things are clearer than before
Showing me the way, asking me to stay
I'll never close the door to all these things and more
In my mind's eye
Everybody I know says I'm changing
Laughing behind their backs, I think they're strange
People running everywhere, running through my life
I couldn't give a care because they'll never see
All that I can see with my mind's eye.
Which way you wanna go, ha,
To the left or the right?

Tell everyone that I'm gonna find it
There ain't nothin' gonna stop me
Rollin' over

Save all your lovin' till I get home
To the sweetest lovin' sunshine that I've ever known

To get on with me neighbours
But they make it very clear
They've got no room for ravers
They stop me from groovin',
They bang on me wall
They doing me crust in
It's no good at all
Lazy Sunday afternoon
I got no mind to worry
I close my eyes and drift away
Here we all are sittin' in a rainbow
Gore blimey hello Mrs Jones
How's old Bert's lumbago (mustn't grumble)
I'll sing you a song,
With no words and no tune
To sing in your party
While you suss-out the moon
Lazy Sunday afternoon,
I got no mind to worry
Close my eyes and drift away
Root-de-doo-de-doo
Root-de-doot-de die day
Root-de doot de dum
Root-de-doo-de-doo dee
There's no one to hear me,
There's nothing to say
And no one can stop me
From feelin' this way
Lazy Sunday afternoon
I've got no mind to worry
Close my eyes and drift away
Over bridge of sighs to rest my eyes
In shades of green
Under dreaming spires, to Itchycoo park
That's where I've been
What did you do there? I got high
What did you feel there? Well I cried
But why the tears there? Tell you why
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful
it's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful
I feel inclined to blow my mind
Get hung up feed the ducks with a bun
They all come out to groove about
While I search for fun in the sun
I tell you what I'll do (What will you do?)
I'd like to go there now with you
You can miss out school(Won't that be cool?)
Why go to learn the words of fools
What do we do there? Well get high
(What will we touch there?) We'll touch the sky
But why the tears there? I'll tell you why
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful
It's all too beautiful, it's all too beautiful
I feel inclined to blow my mind ....
It's all too beautiful
Listen, it's been three months
Since I was last with you
So many people tryin' to
Stop me getting through
The doorman he just laughed
But I don't want no autograph
Now you listen to me baby
All I want to do
Is talk to you
You know I didn't stop you doing
Things you wanted to do
But now it's gone too far
It looks like I'm losing you
But I don't want sympathy
But please don't turn your back on me
Listen baby
All I want to do
Is talk to you
I got to talk to you
I got to try to make you see
Just how very very much
You mean to me
Would it be too much
To try and jog your memory
You remember me baby
I hope that I'm still
Part of your history
Now I don't wanna share your car
No no no, or stop you being a star
All I want to, all I wannna do
You know what I've gotta to do
Got to keep on trying

I'll take you to a place with mountains edged with lace
A place where we can find jellybeans and wine
We will drink from golden cups so very old
We can dance to time, chant verses that don't rhyme
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there, you and me
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there after tea
If thou will devour, one may eat a flower
On toast, a bean filled bun, held up before the sun
The bishop and the baker, the candlestick maker
Danced around in line, danced around in time
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there, you and me
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there after tea
You may ride a horse, made of wood of course
The wooden horse of Troy in comparison a toy
The rabbit and the goldfish, a very tasty cold dish
Eaten up today, eaten right away
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there, you and me
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there after tea
Time for you and me, time for you and tea
Time for (Time for you and me, time for you and tea)
You and (Time for you and me, time for you and tea)
Me (Time for you and me, time for you and tea)
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there, you and me
Watch now carefully, follow me
We will be there after tea

Well my pad is very messy
And there's whiskers on my chin
And I'm all hung up on music
And I always play to win
I ain't got no time for lovin'
Cause my time is all used up
Just to sit around creatin'
All that groovy kind of stuff.
I'm a man Yes I am And I can't help But love you so
I'm a man Yes I am And I can't help But love you so
Well if I had my choice of matter
I would rather be with cats
All engrossed in mental chatter
Moving where our minds are at
And relating to each other
Just how strong our wills can be
I'm resisting all involvement
With each groovy chick we see
I'm a man Yes I am And I can't help But love you so
I'm a man Yes I am And I can't help But love you so
I got to keep my image
While suspended from a throne
That looks out upon a kingdom
Full of people all unknown
Who imagine I'm not human
And my heart is made of stone
I never had no problems
And my toilet's trimmed with chrome
I'm a man Yes I am And I can't help But love you so
I'm a man Yes I am And I can't help But love you so

The look she gave sent a shiver down into my soul
Love is on a roll Love is on a good roll

When I look up to the skies
I see your eyes a funny kind of yellow
I rush home to bed I soak my head
I see your face underneath my pillow
I wake next morning tired still yawning
See your face come peaking through my window
Pictures of matchstick men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you
Windows echo your reflection
When I look in their direction gone
When will this haunting stop
Your face it just wont leave me a-lone
Pictures of matchstick men and you
Mirages of matchstick men and you
All I ever see is them and you
You in the sky you with this guy you make men cry you lie
You in the sky you with this guy you make men cry you lie
Pictures of matchstick men, Pictures of matchstick...
She asked me maybe I could share her sorrow
About the men that tried to treat her wrong
'Tho just a baby, awaiting her tomorrow
It's rock me baby, rock me baby ... all night long
She needs an answer to her confusion
Someone to guide her with tenderness
But if she askin' for a solution
All that she gets, you know, is something like this
I don't know where we come from
I don't know where we're going to
But if all this should have a reason
We would be the last to know
So let's just hope there is a Promised Land
Hang on till then as best as you can
Everybody's ills, you know, it fills her with compassion
That's why she tries to save the world alone
She helps the needy in her own fashion
And tries to give them all her own
She needs an answer ....
Let it hang out baby, let it hang out now, now na-na now

Get your motor runnin', head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure in whatever comes our way
Yeah, darlin', gonna make it happen
Take the world in it's lovely embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and explode into space
I like smoke and lightnin', heavy metal thunder
Racin' with the wind and the feeling that I'm under
Yeah, darlin', gonna make it happen
Take the world in it's lovely embrace
Fire all of your guns at once and explode into space
Well, like a true nature's child we were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high, I never wanna die
Born to be wild, born to be wild
Get your motor runnin', head out on the highway
Lookin' for adventure in whatever comes our way

Take the world in it's lovely embrace
Fire all of our guns at once and explode into space
Well, like a true nature's child we were born, born to be wild
We can climb so high, I never wanna die
Born to be wild, born to be wild
Well thinkin' of my school days, I remember Maybeline
Used to dance with her all night she was little sweet sixteen
Her brother used to chase me
He thought I did, but I never could
I used to call him Little Queenie
His name was Johnnie B. Good
I used to hold her 'til I was older
Her brother used to scold her
I left there in the mornin'
Went back to Memphis, Tennessee
You know her brother never found me
And that's all right with me
I went to New York City to find what could be found
Just for kicks down sixty six, stopped in L.A. Town
Yes I went to California just to see what I could see
Well nobody knew just where I was
And that's alright with me
You know I met a girl named Carol
And her girlfriend sweet Nadine,
Played the rock n' roll music
Used to kiss me in between
Roll over Beethoven that happened to be her favorite song
But we never did much rollin'
I didn't stay there long
I used to hold her and try to mold her
Somebody told her, Nadine and I were bolder
I left there in the mornin'
Went back to Memphis, Tenneessee
You know, I never saw her face again
And that's alright with me
I like to dream
Yes, yes right between the sound machine
On a cloud of sight I drift in the night
Any place it goes is right
Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here<
Well, you don't know what we could find
Why don't you come with me little girl on a magic carpet ride?
Well, you don't know what we could see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me? Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
Let the sound take you away
Last night I held aladdin's lamp, so I wished that I could stay
Before the thing could answer me
Well, someone took, took the lamp away
I looked around a lousy can was all I found
Well, you don't know what we could find
Why don't you come with me little girl on a magic carpet ride?
Well, you don't know what we could see
Why don't you tell your dreams to me? Fantasy will set you free
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
Let the sound take you away
Well, you don't know what we could find ....
