Jefferson Airplane - Alexander The Medium Lyrics
When the time does come near againWhen the day does seem clear againMake it in the night timeThe dreams ands in the light timeAll of you come awayJust a bow shot awayLet me tell you 'bout a story nowA tale of glory and powerAnd I don't even know your nameBut I thought I'd tell you all about it just the sameWe are all creatures of fame, lightness and libertyIn the times of the olden timesOf ancient ladies and maritime splendorPriests of Karnak and ThebesCould walk through the ocean and the seasWhen the pyramid she would sighThe waters streamed from the skyThe ocean you know is your firendYour brother and sister just as sure as sinPut your hands in the waterRest your feet on the seaYou don't have to let your body dieYou can come back again if you try, if you tryThis song was made then by you and meA billion years before these oceans rolledOh I can see you burning brightlyYou shine like silver like sun goldAnd a hundred years from todayAll you people will be gone awayDown into the heart of the seaBak to the time of wonderwhy you and meAnd I don't even know your nameBut I thought I'd tell you all about it just the sameIf you laugh real hard you win the game - hands downBefore old Alexander 'twas just the same as nowCan you smell the blood of fame, lightness and liberty?
