Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Yeah
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
People, let me tell you 'bout a place I know
To get in, it don't take much dough
Where you can really do your thing, yeah, yeah, yeah
(Oh yeah,)
It's got a neon sign outside that says "come in and take a look at your mind."
You'll be surprised what you might find, yeah. (Yeah.)
Strobe lights flashing from sun up to sundown
People gather there from all parts of town. (Oh yeah.)
Right around the corner
You know it's just across the tracks
People, I'm talking about the Psychedelic Shack
Get back
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at. (Get on down.)
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at. (Mmmm, hmmm.)
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Yeah. (Oh yeah.)
You can have your fortune told
You can learn the meaning of soul
There ain't no such a thing as time (And oh) and time
Incense in the air. (Mmmm, hmmm.)
Peace signs painted everywhere
I can tell you this place will blow your mind
They got music so high, you can't get over it
So low, you can't get under it
Let me tell you where it's at. (Uh huh.)
Right around the corner, (Oh yeah.)
Just across the tracks
People, I'm talking 'bout the Psychedelic Shack
Get psyched
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Yeah
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Millionaires, kings and queens go there to do their thing
You might see anybody there, yeah, yeah
Bear skin rugs, tails and minks
Oooh, it don't really matter what you wear
Oh, you can take off your shoes and sit on the floor
Join in and be what you wanna be
Don't you know that it's right around the corner, (Oh yeah.)
Just across the tracks
People, I'm talking about the Psychedelic Shack
Get back
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Psychedelic Shack, that's where it's at
Yeah. (Oh yeah.)
They got a cat that's shouting the blues
Talking 'bout paying some dues
People walking around reciting poetry, yeah
(Oooh, oooh, oooh.)
Screaming guitars and a thousand colored lights
People, I'm telling you this place is really out of sight
(Hey.) Yeah!
You can have your fortune told
You can learn the meaning of soul
I can tell you this place will blow your mind
Don't you know it's right around the corner...
