VOICES GREEN & PURPLE
Voices green and purple
Called to me last night
Voices green and purple
They were in my sight
Voices green and purple
They were real to me
Voices green and purple
They were down by the sea
Lock the windows!
Up the walls!
No no !
Well those voices finally dies out
They sure scared me!
Last time I do that UFO stuff if it kills me
Voices green and purple
They were in my sight
Voices green and purple
Called to me last night
Voices green and purple

BLACkOUT OF GRETELY
Well I was walking down the street at night, yeah
Thinking in my mind that my life was right, yeah
Moon comes up and I looked around
Street lights out all over town
My eyes were dark and my heart beat fast
I knew that my dark sights could not last
Eyes were dark and my heart beat fast
I knew that my dark sightscould not last
It was dark as it could be
Deep sea diver could not see, yeah
Cars were driving with high beams
You couldn't even tell if Mr. Clean was clean
Lit a match and walked on home
Street lights out, I was all alone, yeah
Walked to the door and to my surprise
I had sunglasses on my eyes

MY FLASH ON YOU
I don't want to be in your company
I don't need you to take care of me
Let me 'lone, let me 'lone, can't you let me be
All I want in this world is to say I'm a man that's free
People talkin' about the way I look
I'm sick of all they said, I got enough to write a book
Don't they know, don't they know, it's a waste of breath
I don't wanna be free just to be myself
Don't try to force your smuggled drugs my way
Well I cleansed my soul and I say that's the way it's gotta stay
Put me down, all around, on the ground, anyway you choose
Get your kicks with your fix, but this time I know it's you who lose
Wow- play it one more time

THE BAG I'M IN
Every morning when I wake up
Burn my fingers across the coffee pot
My toast is cold and my orange juice is hot
I could start over but I'd really rather not
It'd only happen over again
Wow yeah
Well that's the bag I'm in
Yeah that's the bag I'm in
That's the bag I'm in, baby
Said that's the bag, that's the bag
That's the bag I'm in, baby
Never met a girl I thought could be my friend
The only money I have is Chinese yen
They'll probably drop the bomb the day my ship comes in
I need a little girl to let me stick in
Well that's the bag I'm in
Well that's the bag I'm in
Well that's the bag I'm in
Well that's the bag I'm in
Every morning when I wake up
I brn my fingers across the coffee pot
My toast is cold and my orange juice is hot
I could start over but I'd really rather not
It'd only happen over again
Wow yeah
Well that's the bag I'm in
Well that's the bag I'm in
That's the bag I'm in, baby

Watching' my baby drive away
With a brand new man and a brand new car
Drivin' off to where the swingers are

RIOT ON SUNSET STRIP
Going' out on the Strip tonight
Ain't no stay-home trip tonight
Long hair seems to be the main attraction
But the heat is causin' all the action
Bright lights everywhere
Pretty girls with long blonde hair
What's the matter, people
Don't you care?
Just doesn't seem fair
To bug you 'cause you got long hair
Even the parents are beginning to scare
Because of the sirens
On our streets
They used to be neat
Now it's just a place
For black and white cars to race
Causing a riot, it's causing a riot, yeah
Bright lights everywhere
Pretty girls with long blonde hair
What's the matter, people

Well, you better be careful
Before it's too late
She gonna make you itch

Among startled people sleepin′ tight
If you hear her knocking on your door
You better sneakin'away
While you know you will
Say don′t you know
And do you remember
That i told you so
Gonna do you in
