Journey to the center of the mind
ted nugent / steve farmer
Leave your cares behind
come with us and find
the pleasures of a journey to the center of the mind
Come along if you care
come along if you dare
take a ride to the land inside of your mind
Beyond the seas of thought
beyond the realm of what
across the streams of hopes and dreams where things are really not
Come along if you care
come along if you dare
take a ride to the land inside of your mind
But please realize
youand'll probably be surprised
for itand's the land unknown to man
where fantasy is fact
so if you can, please understand
you might not come back
Come along if you care
come along if you dare
take a ride to the land inside and youand'll see
How happy life could be
if all of mankind
would take the time to journey to the center of the mind
would take the time to journey to the center of the mind
center of the mind
Substitute
peter townshend
You think we look pretty good together
you think my shoes are made of leather
But iand'm a substitute for another guy
i look pretty tall but my heels are high
the simple things you see are all complicated
i look pretty young, but iand'm just back-dated, yeah
Substitute your lies for fact
i can see right through your plastic mac
i look all white, but my dad was black
my fine looking suit is really made out of sack
I was born with a plastic spoon in my mouth
the north side of my town faced east, and the east was facing south
and now you dare to look me in the eye
those crocodile tears are what you cry

to work it out at all you just pass it by, pass it by
Substitute me for him

Out of time
mick jagger / keith richards
You donand't know whatand's goinand' on
youand've been away for far too long
you canand't come back and think you are still mine
Youand're out of touch, my baby
my poor discarded baby
i said, baby, baby, baby, youand're out of time
Well, baby, baby, baby, youand're out of time
i said, baby, baby, baby, youand're out of time
youand're all left out
out of there without a doubt
i said, baby, baby, baby, youand're out of time
You thought you were a clever girl
giving up your social whirl
but you canand't come back and be the first in line, oh no
Youand're obsolete my baby
my poor old-fashioned baby
i said, baby, baby, baby, youand're out of time

The shape of things to come
barry mann / cynthia weil
Thereand's a new sun
risinand' up angry in the sky
and thereand's a new voice
sayinand' andquot;weand're not afraid to dieandquot;
Let the old world make believe
itand's blind and deaf and dumb
but nothing can change the shape of things to come
There are changes
lyinand' ahead in every road
and there are new thoughts
ready and waiting to explode
When tomorrow is today
the bells may toll for some
but nothing can change the shape of things to come
Futureand's cominand' in, now
sweet and strong
ainand't no-one gonna hold it back for long
There are new dreams
crowdinand' out old realities
thereand's revolution
sweepinand' in like a fresh new breeze
Let the old world make believe
itand's blind and deaf and dumb
but nothing can change the shape of things
nothing can change the shape of things
nothing can change the shape of things
nothing can change the shape of things to come
Somebody to love
darby slick
When the truth is found to be lies
and all the joys within you dies
Donand't you want somebody to love
donand't you need somebody to love
wouldnand't you love somebody to love
you better find somebody to love
When the garden flowers baby are dead yes
and your mind, your mind is full of red
Donand't you want somebody to love
donand't you need somebody to love
wouldnand't you love somebody to love
you better find somebody to love
Your eyes, i say your eyes may look like his
but in your head baby iand'm afraid you donand't know where it is
Donand't you want somebody to love
donand't you need somebody to love
wouldnand't you love somebody to love
you better find somebody to love
Tears are running ah running down your breast
and your friends baby they treat you like a guest
Donand't you want somebody to love
donand't you need somebody to love
wouldnand't you love somebody to love
you better find somebody to love

7 and 7 is
arthur lee
When i was a boy i thought about the times iand'd be a man
iand'd sit inside a bottle and pretend i was in a can
in my lonely room iand'd sit my mind in an ice cream cone
you can throw me if you wanna and'cause iand'm a bone and i go
oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!
/>
if i donand't start cryinand' itand's because i have got no eyes
my fatherand's in the fireplace and my dog lies hypnotized
through a crack of light i was unable to find my way
trapped inside a night but iand'm a day and i go
oop-ip-ip oop-ip-ip, yeah!
One two three four!
My back pages
bob dylan
Crimson flames tied through my ears
rollinand' high and mighty traps pounced with fire on flaming roads
using ideas as my maps andquot;weand'll meet on edges, soon,andquot; said i
proud and'neath heated brow
Ah, but i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
Half-wracked prejudice leaped forth andquot;rip down all hate,andquot; i screamed
lies that life is black and white spoke from my skull i dreamed
romantic facts of musketeers foundation deep, somehow
Ah, but i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
In a soldierand's stance, i aimed my hand at the mongrel dogs who teach
fearing not that iand'd become my enemy in the instant that i preach
my pathway led by confusion boats mutiny from stern to bow
Ah, but i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
Ah, but i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
Yes, my guard stood hard when abstract threats too noble to neglect
deceived me into thinking i had something to protect
good and bad, i define these terms quite clear, no doubt, somehow
Ah, but i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
ah, but i was so much older then
iand'm younger than that now
