Losing Touch With My Mind (Kember/Pierce)

I’m losing, losing touch with my mind
I’m fallin’, fallin’ way behind
I’m walkin’ down a one-way street
I’m tryin’, tryin’ to find my feet

I need it babe, it makes me feel alright
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright, alright, alright

I’m movin’, but I’m goin’ no place
I’m thinkin’, but my mind’s in space
I’m hopin’, hopin’ to find my aim
I’m aimin’, but I don’t take the blame

I need it babe, it makes me feel alright
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright, alright, alright

I’m shootin’, shootin’ off my gun
It’s too bad now babe, but it’s a lot of fun
I’m livin’ like you’d like to live
But I’m wantin’ babe what you’ve got to give

I need it babe, it makes me feel alright
I need it babe, it makes me feel alright, alright, alright, alright

Hey Man (Kember/Pierce)

Feelin’ funny in my mind, Lord
Feelin’ funny in my mind, Lord
Feelin’ funny in my mind, Lord
I need it, Lord

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

There’s a black smoke risin’, Lord
There’s a black smoke risin’, Lord
There’s a black smoke risin’, Lord
Right above my head

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

Well I don’t mind dyin’, Lord
I don’t mind dyin’, Lord
I don’t mind dyin’
But I hate to leave my mother cryin’

Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen, Amen

Rollercoaster (Hall/Erikson)

Well I met someone some time ago
His eyes were clear to see
He showed me things in my own mind
That I wish all the world could see
He stopped me from living so insane
I can be just what I wanna be
Things appear as they really are
I can see just what I want to see

Well come on, and let it happen to you
Well come on, and let it happen to you
You gotta open up your mind and let everything come through

Well it starts like a rollercoaster ride
So real it takes your breath away
It slides you through your point of view
You look back to where you thought you’d stay
When your ride changes you
Exactly like a neon ray
You don’t have to search for words anymore
There’s nothing you need to say

Well come on, and let it happen to you
Well come on, and let it happen to you
You gotta open up your mind and let everything come through

After your trip, life opens up
You start doing what you wanna do
You find out that the world that you once feared
Gets what it has from you
No-one can ever hurt you
Because now you know more than you thought you knew
You’re looking at the world with brand new eyes
And no-one can ever spoil the view

Well come on, and let it happen to you
Hey, hey, hey well come on, you gotta let it happen to you
You gotta open up your mind and let everything come through

Just open up your mind
And let everything come through

Mary Anne (Campbell/Hubbard)

Mary Anne, hold my hand
Pretty babe, I understand
You say it’s time to grab it blind
Cheering crowds they screw my mind
Just one time, I tell you now
Do your thing girl and do it loud
The desert sand, the secret plan
Lord’s own knowledge is in your hand
Grab a hold and ride that freight
Be yourself, don’t hesitate

Mary Anne, hold my hand
Pretty babe, I understand
You say it’s time to grab it blind
Cheering crowds they screw my mind
Just one time, that’s all I ask
To do my thing, girl, and do it fast
The desert sand, the secret plan
Lord’s own knowledge is in your hand
Grab a hold and ride that freight
Be yourself, don’t hesitate

Mary Anne, hold my hand
Pretty babe, I understand
You say it’s time to grab it blind
Cheering crowds they screw my mind
Just one time, I tell you now
Do your thing girl and do it loud
The desert sand, the secret plan
Lord’s own knowledge is in your hand
Grab a hold and ride that freight
Be yourself, don’t hesitate

Little Doll (J Osterberg)

Little doll, I can’t forget
Smokin’ on a cigarette
In my life the real queen
Prettiest thing I ever seen
Uh-huh

You’re the one who makes me sing
Bringin’ happiness and everything
You’re the only real one
A real way to have some fun
Uh-huh

2.35 (Kember/Pierce)

Well it’s 2.35 in the afternoon
You said you’d be comin’ home quite soon
Now I’ve been waiting far too long
I wanna get down to sing my song
But babe there’s no more

Well I’ve been down and I’ve been sad
And I’ve kicked things in and gotten me mad
I ain’t had nothin’ to take my mind
I ain’t had nothin’ for a long, long time
‘Cos babe there’s no more

You think you’re cool, you think you’re neat
You think you’re everybody’s special treat
Now baby take your hands off of me
I’ve got a somethin’ for you but you ain’t brought nothing for me
‘Cos babe there’s no more
