st. Peter give me your rock
we're gonna perspirate 'til we drop
silver balloon popped last night
burst in a shower of northern light
I need a drink, brother Pete
the heat makes hydrogen taste so sweet
cities to ash and craters to sea
wine for Peter and a drink for me
Marie's a pretty little thing
when I'm with her I feel that sting
but I lost my bedrock
looks like I'll have to cool down and stop

my body is ravaged
it's soul has been scavenged
my hair is gray and licey
nails are chapped and icy
so I go to the river
our ashes fly hither
it all ends by the river
a sign of bars is a sign for the devil
sweet machines make thoughts that are bevel
they grow too big for my dog-rose wreath
bowels eroding and I'm out of breath
angels make soap by the river
their hands are thin as a sliver
many mouths sing songs of silver
lay down by the river
lay down by the river
lay down by the river
lay down by the river
(improv part)
bathe in the stream
bathe in the stream
beige is my dream
beige is my dream
so I follow the gleam
follow the gleam
though it won't seem
I follow my dream
into the gleam
into the gleam
I follow
I follow
my dream
I'm weak and deformed
my church will be reformed
water, I am yours to fill
what you're made of, you turn to still
lay down by the river
lay down by the river
lay down by the river
lay down by the river

folks tell of an old whale
behind the blood-backed poppy men
his skin is whiter than pale
and he speaks in low amen
some swan-tailed sirens
sing the song of crooked friends
circling hoods higher and higher
farewell tickets you'll soon apprehend
time goes so slowly
the human body is lowly
plow our soul
bleach our speech
you want free
you're running away
into me
alice for the short guys
huxley for the unfree
thompson for the uptight
and a moby dick for me
there's dead and there's bread
this side of the shining doorframe
it will be painted a soviet red
after the genocide of whale and fame
time goes so slowly
neon signs are glowy
show the sow
where flowers grow
you want free
you're running away
into me
into me
into me
into me
into me

the sun's a charm
in mother's arms
can't read O'Hara
in the Sahara
fratres
when you leave home
you're all alone
free to diffuse
in skies and blues
fratres
where will we go
along the flow?
there ain't a book
in which to look
fratres
Jesus said then
he would divide men
is there a way out?
I hope I'll find out
fratres

your movements are so nice for me to see
an island for the sailor wrestling with the sea
though messaging you is the modern trend
I'll see you by the concrete river bend
as always, I might possibly be late
I'll send you my excuses in a crate
these flowers in the windows sure look dark
for you, I'll bring the Niagra State Park
we'll meet where the avantgarde stream turns
where the bohemian boys can't see your curls
forget the steppes, the roads, the silly hills
hand in hand we'll wake the morning bells
