This song was in the original Off-Broadway version of Hair and the album, DisinHAIRited, which is sort of an extension of the musical with extra songs.
Both versions are sung by Claude about his “home planet” named “Exanaplanatooch”, and what a beautiful place it is. In the original, this song pops...
[CLAUDE]
Exanaplanatooch
A planet in another galaxy
Exanaplanatooch
A place where all the people look like me
A planet where the air is pure
The river waters crystal bright
The sky is green and in the night
Twelve golden moons provide the light
The buildings in the cities, shaped like hills
Made of black and green and blue and yellow glass
With rivers running through them
Crystal bright
Swim in the water
Drink from the rivers
Total beauty, total health
Every man's an artist and a sciеntist-philosopher
No government and no policе
No wars, no crime, no hate
Just happiness and love
Fulfillment of each man's potential and ambition
With ever-widening horizons
Exanaplanatooch
A planet in another galaxy
Exanaplanatooch
