Come Together 

By: The Beatles 

Here come old flattop. He come grooving up slowly 

He got ju-ju eyeballs. He's one holy roller 

He got hair down to his knee 

Got to be a joker he just do what he please 

He wear no shoeshine he's got toe-jam football 

He got monkey fingers he shoot Coca-Cola 

He say "I know you, you know me" 

One thing I can tell you is you got to be free 

Come together right now over me. 

He buy production he got walrus scumble 

He's got Ono sideboard he's got spinal cracker 

He's got feet down below his knee 

Hold you in his arms till you can feel his disease 


He's roller-coaster he's got early warning 

He's got muddy water he's got mojo filter 

He say "One and one and one is three" 

Got to be good looking 'cause he's so hard to see 


Ow! 

[solo] 

Come together! Come together! Come together! 

[repeat over solo until end]

Helter Skelter 


When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide 

Where I stop and I turn and then I go for a ride 

'Til I get to the bottom and I see you again, yeah, yeah yeah 

Do you, don't you want me to love you 

I'm coming down fast, but I'm miles above you 

Tell me, tell me tell me, c'mon tell me the answer 

Well you may be a lover but you ain't no dancer. 

Now Helter Skelter, Helter Skelter, Helter Skelter, yeah ... 

A-will you, won't you want me to make you 

I'm coming down fast, but don't let me break you 

Tell me, tell me, tell me the answer 

You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer. 

Look out! 

Helter Skelter, Helter Skelter, Helter Skelter, oooh... 

Look out, 'cause here she come ... 

When I get to the bottom I go back to the top of the slide 

And I stop and I turn and then I go for a ride 

And I get to the bottom and I see you again, yeah, yeah yeah 

Well do you, don't you want me to make you 

I'm coming down fast, but don't let me break you 

Tell me, tell me, tell me your answer 

You may be a lover but you ain't no dancer 

Look out! 

Helter Skelter, Helter Skelter, Helter Skelter 

Look out! Helter Skelter ... she coming down fast 

Yes she is 

Yes she is 

Coming down fast 

Oh now helter skelter ... woo hooo 

(yelled) 

I got blisters on my fingers! 



Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds 


{VERSE 1} 

Picture yourself in a boat on a river, 

With tangerine trees and marmalade skies. 

Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly, 

A girl with kaleidoscope eyes. 

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green, 

Towering over your head. 

Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes, 

And she's gone. 

{CHORUS} 

Lucy in the sky with diamonds, 



Ah... Ah... 

{VERSE 2} 

Follow her down to a bridge by a fountain, 

Where rocking horse people eat marshmallow pies. 

Everyone smiles as you drift past the flowers, 

That grow so incredibly high. 

Newspaper taxis appear on the shore, 

Waiting to take you away. 

Climb in the back with your head in the clouds, 

And you're gone. 

{CHORUS} 

Picture yourself on a train in a station, 

With plasticine porters with looking glass ties. 

Suddenly someone is there at the turnstile, 

The girl with kaleidoscope eyes. 

{CHORUS} 

{CHORUS FADING} 



Terrapin Station [Live] 

By: The Grateful Dead 

Let my inspiration flow in token rhyme, suggesting rhythm, 

That will not forsake you, till my tale is told and done. 

While the firelight's aglow, strange shadows from the flames will grow, 

Till things we've never seen will seem familiar. 

Shadows of a sailor, forming winds both foul and fair all swarm. 

Down in Carlisle, he loved a lady many years ago. 

Here beside him stands a man, a soldier from the looks of him, 

Who came through many fights, but lost at love. 

While the story teller speaks, a door within the fire creaks; 

Suddenly flies open, and a girl is standing there. 

Eyes alight, with glowing hair, all that fancy paints as fair, 

She takes her fan and throws it, in the lion's den. 

Which of you to gain me, tell, will risk uncertain pains of hell? 

I will not forgive you if you will not take the chance. 

The sailor gave at least a try, the soldier being much too wise, 

Strategy was his strength, and not disaster. 

The sailor, coming out again, the lady fairly leapt at him. 

That's how it stands today. You decide if he was wise. 

The story teller makes no choice. Soon you will not hear his voice. 

His job is to shed light, and not to master. 

Since the end is never told, we pay the teller off in gold, 

In hopes he will come back, but he cannot be bought or sold. 

Terrapin Station 

Inspiration, move me brightly. Light the song with sense and color; 

Hold away despair, more than this I will not ask. 

Face of mysteries dark and vast, statements just seem vain at last. 

Some rise, some fall, some climb, to get to Terrapin. 

Counting stars by candlelight, all are dim but one is bright; 

The spiral light of Venus, rising first and shining best, 

On, from the northwest corner, of a brand new crescent moon, 

While crickets and cicadas sing a rare and different tune, 

Terrapin Station. 

In the shadow of the moon, Terrapin Station. 

And I know we'll get there soon, Terrapin Station. 



I can't figure out, Terrapin, if it's the end or beginning, Terrapin, 

But the train's put its brakes on, Terrapin, 

And the whistle is screaming, TERRAPIN. 

Terrapin Station - At the Siding 

While you were gone, these faces filled with darkness. 

The obvious was hidden. With nothing to believe in, 

The compass always points to Terrapin. 

Sullen wings of fortune beat like rain. 

You're back in Terrapin for good or ill again, for good or ill again. 



Purple Haze 

By: Jimi Hendrix 

Purple Haze all in my brain, 

Lately things don't seem the same, 

Actin' funny but I don't know why 

'Scuse me while I kiss the sky. 

Purple Haze all around, 

Don't know if I'm coming up or down. 

Am I happy or in misery? 

Whatever it is, that girl put a spell on me. 

Help me, help me, oh no, no, no 

[something’s wrong… something’s not right] 

Oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, oh ah, yeah! 

Purple Haze was in my eyes, 

Don't know if it's day or night, 

You've got me blowing, blowing my mind 

Is it tomorrow or just the end of time? 

Oh no! Tell me, tell me, tell me… 

[purple haze, purple haze, purple haze] 



The Crystal Ship 

By: The Doors 

Before you slip into unconsciousness 

I'd like to have another kiss 

Another flashing chance at bliss 

Another kiss, another kiss. 

The days are bright and filled with pain 

Enclose me in your gentle rain 

The time you ran was too insane 

We'll meet again, we'll meet again. 

Oh tell me where your freedom lies 

The streets are fields that never die 

Deliver me from reasons why 

You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly. 

The crystal ship is being filled 

A thousand girls, a thousand thrills 

A million ways to spend your time 

When we get back, I'll drop a line.
