The Lyrics

the other night, dear
the walls were creeping
it seemed i saw you
with eight arms
my psyche's broke, dear
i have been shaken
cause i fed my head and fried

i ate orange sunshine
some pure orange sunshine
it makes me happy
all night and day
my mind is blown, dear
i've killed brain tissue
please don't take my sunshine away

i take that stuff, dear
to keep me happy
when i feel lonely
for drugs, i'm game
my worries leave me
in love, i'm smothered
i must eat some more today

i ate orange sunshine
some pure orange sunshine
it makes me trippy
i feel it's sway
i can't say "no", dear
i've got some issues
please don't take my sunshine away

i tried it once, dear
it really hooked me
no other drug, dear
creates such dreams
but it has wrecked me
i drool and blubber
i am shattered, so it seems

i ate orange sunshine
some pure orange sunshine
it comes on snappy
and lasts all day
it helps you grow, dear
but tends to squish you
please don't take my sunshine away

Alvin - you really deserve an award for this. And if someone hadn't stolen my 'Moby Grape' poster when they ripped off my stereo from my apartment in 1970 I would have awarded it to you...honest...Well, take 3 tabs of "flying fives" and groove with it...

Wow! I am embarrassed to admit I've never heard of "orange sunshine" as a 'brand' of acid...
