Coming Down Soft And Easy

Tell a tale of married men
Of simple shells and curried zen
Falling through the world of when today
Serpent coils and hydrofoils
You don't believe what he does with oils
Speaking words that he said once yesterday
Peaches are predominant
Peace has got no counterpoint
Peter said he had to go nowhere away

But could it be a grand joke, a puff of smoke?
Yes it's but a great day to know the way
Don't you see the huge clouds go flying by?
Don't you know? Deep down, we all are butterflies

Just you take another look around, what you've been seeing?
What's been running through your mind is all we have at all
Have you been to the tinkers' ball?
Waiting for the light to come again
Yes we was sitting on a rooftop
Looking at the planets, have you looked out there?
Today is like tomorrow then
A little scared of the affairs of men
Everybody also knows that they're afraid
'Cause they are frightened by a love life with everybody
Terrified by the thought of unity is probable, vanity is escapable
Violence, the workings of a tortured mind
Oh waterbeds are really fun, sleeping in the baking sun
Debbie's disappointed but I think she knows it's right
Yeah jellyfish are dangerous, politics are perilous
And I'm really glad that I'm not Richard's friend
'Cause I say sexual repression can make a lot of trouble
It can only lead to craziness is in the head
The heart is short of being dead
Have you got a reason for survival in the fall?
Oh look at bloodsoaked Charlie on a silk stained bedsheet
Can you tell me? Do you really want to die in all your false belief?
I tell you now that there is no relief
Oh you've really gotta grow again
Psychosomatic delusions of euphoria
Better dig it now before the coming in memoriam

Could it be a grand joke, a puff of smoke?
Yes it's but a great day to know the way
Don't you see the huge clouds go flying by?
Don't you know? Deep down, we all are butterflies
