Lucy in the sky with diamonds

Written by john lennon and paul mccartney
Released as a uk single in november, 1974

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 shes gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds

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 you head in the clouds
And youre gone

Lucy in the sky with diamonds

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

Alice :wink:

 

[alice]

from the album Surrealistic Pillow (1967) by Jefferson Airplane

White Rabbit

One pill makes you larger
And one pill makes you small
And the ones that mother gives you
Don't do anything at all
Go ask Alice
When she's ten feet tall

And if you go chasing rabbits
And you know you're going to fall
Tell'em a hookah smoking caterpillar
Has given you the call
Call Alice
When she was just small

When men on the chessboard
get up and tell you where to go
And you've just had some kind of mushroom
And your mind is moving low
Go ask Alice
I think she'll know

When logic and proportion
Have fallen sloppy dead
And the White Knight is talking backwards
And the Red Queen's off with her head
Remember what the Dormouse said:
"Feed your Head
Feed your Head!"

[MuschBusch]

Deinonychus - You Died Before I Was Finished

Like a thorn defending a rose, it penertated my vein.
Welcoming the pleasuredome and everlasting beauty.
Like children analysing a picture book, and so do I.
The footsteps printed in blue grass, are different today.
Whilst you have changed in the way you look at me.
The view through an empty bottle makes sense.
Time stands still, even life does...
The painting on the wall lives it's own life.
As the night seems to be everlasting, so do I.
Born from a new and unknown womb, it has coloured my life.
The landscape on the painting moves, and I didn't ask for it.
Please don't make it stop...
I hope this will never change.

Oh no oh ho



Ramones - Somebody Put Something In My Drink
(Richie Ramone)

Somebody Somebody Put Something In My Drink Somebody

Another night out on the street
Stopping for my usual seat
Oh, bartender, please

Tanqueray & tonic's my favorite drink
I don't like anything colored pink
That just stinks...it's not for me

It feels like somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something

Blurred vision and dirty thoughts
Feel out of place, very distraught
Feel something coming on

Kick the jukebox, slam the floor
Drink, drink, drink, drink some more
I can't think Hey! What's in this drink?

It feels like somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something...in my drink...in my drink...in my drink...in my drink

So you think it's funny A college prank
Goin' insane for something to drink
Feel a little dry

Oh, I couldn't care what you think of me
Cause somebody put something in my drink
I can't think Hey! Give me a drink

It feels like somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink

Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink
Somebody put something Somebody put something in my drink

Strawberry Fields Forever

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever

Living is easy with eyes closed
Misunderstanding all you see
It's getting hard to be someone
but it all works out
It doesn't matter much to me

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever

No one I think is in my tree
I mean it must be high or low
That is you know you can't tune it
but It's all right
That is I think it's not too bad

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever

Always know sometimes think it's me
But you know I know when it's a dream
I think a "No" will mean a "Yes"
but it's all wrong
that is I think I disagree

Let me take you down
cause I'm going to strawberry fields
Nothing is real
and nothing to get hung about
Strawberry fields forever
Strawberry fields forever
strawberry fields forever

actually i don't think this one is about drugs, but it's trippy and dreamy!

the doors - riders on the storm

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm

There's a killer on the road
His brain is squirmin' like a toad
Take a long holiday
Let your children play
If ya give this man a ride
Sweet memory will die
Killer on the road, yeah

Girl ya gotta love your man
Girl ya gotta love your man
Take him by the hand
Make him understand
The world on you depends
Our life will never end
Gotta love your man, yeah

Wow!

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Into this house we're born
Into this world we're thrown
Like a dog without a bone
An actor out alone
Riders on the storm

Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm
Riders on the storm

 

[Guest]

How's riders of the storm related to drugs???
(other then the band members who are on them...)

 

[Adrenochromatik]

White rabbit is a very beautiful .... thank you Alice !

 

[ararat]

Alteration X10 by tiamat, a really great band with great melodies

It comes smoothly at start
Stirs gently in the colour pot
Centrifuge
Restore amends
For every spiralchange
A snowflake bride
A heroine (---heroin, psilocybin, mescaline, psilocin, fucking oxytocin bitch)
A quark resolution of god
An angel in powder snow
Symmetrical asymmetry a newborn star of logic a newborn star of magic
Take a shortwave frequency ride
(any you like)
What you believe in, you'll find
Close your eyes to see
This will take a while...
I wipe the steamy window lustre
Today I'll attend a new planet earth
After you sir...

Sounds like a nice one Misery :thumbsup:

The Stranglers - Golden Brown

Golden brown texture like sun
Lays me down with my mind she runs
Throughout the night
No need to fight
Never a frown with golden brown

Every time just like the last
On her ship tied to the mast
To distant lands
Takes both my hands
Never a frown with golden brown

Golden brown finer temptress
Through the ages she's heading west
From far away
Stays for a day
Never a frown with golden brown

Na na na na, Na na na na

Never a frown
With golden brown
Never a frown
With golden brown

And 1 in Dutch :

Doe Maar - Nederwiet

Dit is een lied over een plant
Een groene plant
Een mooie plant
Een welriekende plant
Een grote en sterke
Ja een nuttige plant
Het gaat over de cannabis sativa hollandica
Oftewel nederwiet

Nederwiedewiedewiet
Wiedewiedewiet
Ja ja Nederwiedewiedewiet

We beginnen met het zaad
Het goede zaad is van een plant
Die al minstens drie generaties
In Nederland groeit en bloeit
Sommige mensen zeggen zeven
Maar dat is een kwestie van geloof
Geloof ik
Dat mag je dus zelf weten goed
Het goed zaad doe je in
Maart april mei in de grond
Voortkiemen en zo
Dat is allemaal maar haastige spoed
Het plantje weet zelf het beste
Wanneer het op moet komen
Dus laat maar gaan
Dat gaat wel goed
Dat wordt prachtige
Nederwiedewiedewiet

Net zo goed als congo
Indonesia acapulco colombia
Ja ja ja ja ja ja

En dan nu geduld
Rustig op laten komen
Het plantje is nog klein
Bemoedigend toespreken dus
Dan wordt het groter
En groter en groter
En het wordt zelfs nog
Groter en groter en groter
En het wordt dikker
En dan is het september
En tijd voor de oogst
De vrouwtjes met de zaadjes
En/of de bloemetjes haal je binnen

Je legt ze op de grond of
Hangt ze met de voetjes aan het plafond
En dan wacht je 1 2 3
En een halve maand
Tot het droog is
En als het dan droog is dan
Komt het belangrijkste van de
Cannabis sativa hollandica
Het uitzoeken van de blaadjes
Daar krijg je hoofdpijn van
Ik wel
De blaadjes daarvan krijg je
Een betonnen hoofd
Dus die blaadjes
Die gooi je weg
En je rookt alleen de hoesjes
Van de zaadjes en of de bloemetjes
En daarvan krijg je geen betonnen hoofd
En daarvan krijg je geen hoofdpijn
En daarvan word je niet draaierig
Maar daarvan word je zo high
Als een vlaamse papegaai
Dat is onze eigen

Nederwiet
Daarvoor hoeft niemand in
Verre vreemde landen in
De bak te zitten
Nederwiet
Nederwiet nederwiet
En verder gaat dit lied niet


Doe Maar - Heroïne

Mijn god wat ben je veranderd
Je bent dezelfde niet
Je had zo'n mooie mond met tanden
Daar is niks meer van over

En dan die blik in je ogen
Je kijkt wel maar je ziet niet
Ik heb je altijd gemogen
Ze vinden je een klootzak

Heroine godverdomme
Heroine godverdomme
Heroine is een vloek
Heroine godverdomme
Heroine godverdomme
Wie verdient dat

Als jij alleen was op de wereld
Nou dan kon ik er nog bij
Maar heb het lef eens te beweren
Dat er niemand naar je omkijkt

Je belazert al je vrienden
Verneukt je eigen lief
Besteelt je moeder voor een tientje
Als jij maar je shot krijgt

Heroine godverdomme
Heroine is een vloek
Heroine godverdomme
Wie verdient dat

Je zegt je zit in de zorgen
Je bent een zielepiet
En elke dag zeg jij weer
Morgen stop ik met die rotzooi

Nou het is je eigen leven
je moet het zelf maar zien
Maar ik zou er wat voor geven
Als ik je weer eens lachen zag

Heroine godverdomme
Heroine is een vloek
Heroine godverdommewieheregod
Verdient dat

A WONDERFUL song, discovered it yesterday, been listening to it non-stop... The lyrics and the voice are just soooooo right...

Well...

The Velvet Underground - Heroin

I dont know just where Im going
But Im gonna try for the kingdom, if I can
cause it makes me feel like Im a man
When I put a spike into my vein
And Ill tell ya, things arent quite the same
When Im rushing on my run
And I feel just like jesus son
And I guess that I just dont know
And I guess that I just dont know

I have made the big decision
Im gonna try to nullify my life
cause when the blood begins to flow
When it shoots up the droppers neck
When Im closing in on death
And you cant help me not, you guys
And all you sweet girls with all your sweet silly talk
You can all go take a walk
And I guess that I just dont know
And I guess that I just dont know

I wish that I was born a thousand years ago
I wish that Id sail the darkened seas
On a great big clipper ship
Going from this land here to that
In a sailors suit and cap
Away from the big city
Where a man can not be free
Of all of the evils of this town
And of himself, and those around
Oh, and I guess that I just dont know
Oh, and I guess that I just dont know

Heroin, be the death of me
Heroin, its my wife and its my life
Because a mainer to my vein
Leads to a center in my head
And then Im better off and dead
Because when the smack begins to flow
I really dont care anymore
About all the jim-jims in this town
And all the politicians makin crazy sounds
And everybody puttin everybody else down
And all the dead bodies piled up in mounds

cause when the smack begins to flow
Then I really dont care anymore
Ah, when the heroin is in my blood
And that blood is in my head
Then thank God that Im as good as dead
Then thank your God that Im not aware
And thank God that I just dont care
And I guess I just dont know
And I guess I just dont know

 

[Razputin]

The Byrds - Eight Miles High

Eight miles high and when you touch down
Youll find that its stranger than known
Signs in the street that say where youre going
Are somewhere just being their own

Nowhere is there warmth to be found
Among those afraid of losing their ground
Rain gray town known for its sound
In places small faces unbound

Round the squares huddled in storms
Some laughing some just shapeless forms
Sidewalk scenes and black limousines
Some living some standing alone

The Doors - Stoned Immaculate

Ill tell you this...
No eternal reward will forgive us now
For wasting the dawn.

Back in those days everything was simpler and more confused
One summer night, going to the pier
I ran into two young girls
The blonde one was called freedom
The dark one, enterprise
We talked and they told me this story
Now listen to this...
Ill tell you about texas radio and the big beat
Soft driven, slow and mad
Like some new language
Reaching your head with the cold, sudden fury of a divine messenger
Let me tell you about heartache and the loss of god
Wandering, wandering in hopeless night
Out here in the perimeter there are no stars

Out here we is stoned
Immaculate.

- About every track by Shpongle (a nice example would be "Divine Moments of Truth" 8) ) but they don't use lyrics that much, except occasional samples from Terence McKenna.

- Of course the whole album "1200 Micrograms" by 1200 mics (Doh! ...)

- Then a very nice 60's song I recently discovered: "Wear your love like heaven" by Donovan. Doesn't necessarily deal with drugs, but read the lyrics and you know what it's about:

Donovan - Wear Your Love Like Heaven

Colour in sky prussian blue
Scarlet fleece changes hue
Crimson ball sinks from view

Wear your love like heaven (wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (wear your love)

Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven (wear my love like)
Wear my love like heaven (wear my love)
La, la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la

Colour sky havana lake
Colour sky rose carmethene
Alizarian crimson

Wear your love like heaven (wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (wear your love)

Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven (wear my love like)
Wear my love like heaven (wear my love)
La, la, la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la-la

Can I believe what I see
All I have wished for will be
All our race proud and free

Wear your love like heaven (wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (wear your love like)
Wear your love like heaven (wear your love)

Lord, kiss me once more
Fill me with song
Allah, kiss me once more
That I may, that I may
Wear my love like heaven (wear my love like)
Wear my love like heaven (wear my love)

- Another great 60's track: "The Gnome" by Pink Floyd. Also doesn't mention psychedelics directly, but read the lyrics...

Pink Floyd - The Gnome

I want to tell you a story
'bout a little man if I can.
A gnome named Grimble Gromble.
And little gnomes stay in their homes,
eating, sleeping, drinking their wine.

He wore a scarlet tunic,
a blue-green hood, it looked quite good.
He had a big adventure
amidst the grass, fresh air at last.
Wining, dining, biding his time...

And then one day...
Hooray!
Another way for gnomes to say
"Hoooooray"

Look at the sky, look at the river.
Isn't it good?
Look at the sky, look at the river.
Isn't it good?

Winding, finding places to go.

And then one day
Hooray!
Another way for gnomes to say
"Hoooooray"
"Hooooooooray"

Red Hot Chili Peppers - The Zepher Song

Can I get your hand to write on
Just a piece of lead to bite on
What am I to fly my kite on
Do you want to flash your light on
Take a look its on display - for you
Coming down no not today

Did you meet your fortune teller
Get it off with no propellor
Do it up its always stellar
What a way to finally smell her
Pick it up its not to strong - for you
Take a piece and pass it on

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more then ever
And in this perfect weather
Well find a place together
Fly on my wing

Riddlin on liberator
Find a way to be a skater
Rev it up to levitator
Super mainly aviator
Take a look its on display - for you
Coming down no not today

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more then ever
And in this perfect weather
Well find a place together
In the water where the scent of my emotion
All the world will pass me by
Fly away on my zephyr
Well find a place together

Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa - do you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
Whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa whoa - wont you
Yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah

Fly away on my zephyr
I feel it more then ever
And in this perfect weather
Well find a place together

In the water where the scent of my emotion
All the world will pass me by
Fly away on my zephyr
Were gonna live forever
Forever

Rolling Stones - Mother's Little Helper

What a drag it is getting old
"Kids are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Mother needs something today to calm her down
And though she's not really ill
There's a little yellow pill
She goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And it helps her on her way, gets her through her busy day
"Things are different today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
Cooking fresh food for a husband's just a drag
So she buys an instant cake and she burns her frozen steak
And goes running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And two help her on her way, get her through her busy day
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
"Men just aren't the same today"
I hear ev'ry mother say
They just don't appreciate that you get tired
They're so hard to satisfy, You can tranquilize your mind
So go running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
And four help you through the night, help to minimize your
plight
Doctor please, some more of these
Outside the door, she took four more
What a drag it is getting old
"Life's just much too hard today,"
I hear ev'ry mother say
The pusuit of happiness just seems a bore
And if you take more of those, you will get an overdose
No more running for the shelter of a mother's little helper
They just helped you on your way, through your busy dying day

Rolling Stones - Sister Morphine

Here I lie in my hospital bed
Tell me, Sister Morphine, when are you coming round again?
Oh, I don't think I can wait that long
Oh, you see that I'm not that strong
The scream of the ambulance is sounding in my ears
Tell me, Sister Morphine, how long have I been lying here?
What am I doing in this place?
Why does the doctor have no face?
Oh, I can't crawl across the floor
Ah, can't you see, Sister Morphine, I'm trying to score
Well it just goes to show
Things are not what they seem
Please, Sister Morphine, turn my nightmares into dreams
Oh, can't you see I'm fading fast?
And that this shot will be my last
Sweet Cousin Cocaine, lay your cool cool hand on my head
Ah, come on, Sister Morphine, you better make up my bed
'Cause you know and I know in the morning I'll be dead
Yeah, and you can sit around, yeah and you can watch all the
Clean white sheets stained red

 

[alice]

wow!
i guess drugs, i mean, i know drugs are very inspiring!
i mean either lyrics or music written on drugs are amazing (like ziggy stardust and the spiders from mars) or many songs about drugs are just so pretty.
some lyrics are really beatiful, loved the one from pink floyd, and HEROIN from velvet underground... yeah, the music really sounds like heroin, i don't know how to explain, but it does, i know that song, and it's really long, like 11 minutes or so, isn't it?
yeah, i would also like to know what riders on the storm is about, just out of curiosity, if it really is about some specific drug, but else it doesn't matter anyways it's such a beatiful song!

:wink:

Sublime
"Smoke Two Joints"

I smoke two joints in the morning
I smoke two joint at night
I smoke two joint in the afternoon
It makes me feel alright

I smoke two joints in time of peace
And two in time of war
I smoke two joints before I smoke two joints
And then I smoke two more

Daddy he once told me
"Son, you be hard workin' man"
And momma she once told me
"Son, you do the best you can"
Then one day I meet a man
He came to me and said
"Hard work good and hard work fine
but first take care of head"

Whoa rock me to the night
Jah say
