The Doors - Celebration Of The Lizard слова песни
Lions in the street and roamingDogs in heat, rabid, foamingA beast caged in the heart of a cityThe body of his motherRotting in the summer groundHe fled the townHe went down South and crossed the borderLeft the chaos and disorderBack there over his shoulderOne morning he awoke in a green hotelWith a strange creature groaning beside himSweat oozed from its shiny skinIs everybody in?The ceremony is about to beginWake up!You can`t remember where it wasHad this dream stopped?The snake was pale goldGlazed and shrunkenWe were afraid to touch itThe sheets were hot dead prisonsAnd she was beside meOld, she`s not, youngHer dark red hairHer white soft skinNow, run to the mirror in the bathroomLook!I can`t live thru each slow century of her movingI let my cheek slide downThe cool smooth tileFeel the good cold stinging bloodThe smooth hissing snakes of rain . . .Once I had, a little gameI liked to crawl back into my brainI think you know the game I meanI mean the game called `go insane`Now you should try this little gameJust close your eyes forget your nameForget the world forget the peopleAnd we`ll erect a different steepleThis little game is fun to doJust close your eyes no way to loseAnd I`m right there I`m going tooRelease control we`re breaking thruWay back deep into the brainBack where there`s never any painAnd the rain falls gently on the townAnd over the heads of all of usAnd in the labyrinth of streamsBeneath, the quiet unearthly presence ofNervous hill dwellers in the gentle hills aroundReptiles aboundingFossils, caves, cool air heightsEach house repeats a moldWindows rolledBeast car locked in against morningAll now sleepingRugs silent, mirrors vacantDust blind under the beds of lawful couplesWound in sheetsAnd daughters, smugWith semen eyes in their nipplesWaitThere`s been a slaughter here(Don`t stop to speak or look aroundYour gloves and fan are on the groundWe`re getting out of townWe`re going on the runAnd you`re the one I want to come)Not to touch the earthNot to see the sunNothing left to do, butRun, run, runLet`s runHouse upon the hillMoon is lying stillShadows of the treesWitnessing the wild breezeC`mon baby run with meLet`s runRun with meRun with meRun with meLet`s runThe mansion is warm, at the top of the hillRich are the rooms and the comforts thereRed are the arms of luxuriant chairsAnd you won`t know a thing till you get insideDead president`s corpse in the driver`s carThe engine runs on glue and tarC`mon along, we`re not going very farTo the East to meet the CzarSome outlaws lived by the side of the lakeThe minister`s daughter`s in love with the snakeWho lives in a well by the side of the roadWake up, girl! We`re almost homeSun, sun, sunBurn, burn, burnSoon, soon, soonMoon, moon, moonI will get youSoon!Soon!Soon!Let the carnival bells ringLet the serpent singLet everythingWe came downThe rivers and highwaysWe came down fromForests and fallsWe came down fromCarson and SpringfieldWe came down fromPhoenix enthralledAnd I can tell youThe names of the KingdomI can tell youThe things that you knowListening for a fistful of silenceClimbing valleys into the shade`I am the Lizard KingI can do anythingI can make the earth stop in its tracksI made the blue cars go awayFor seven years I dweltIn the loose palace of exilePlaying strange gamesWith the girls of the islandNow I have come againTo the land of the fair, and the strong, and the wiseBrothers and sisters of the pale forestO Children of NightWho among you will run with the hunt?Now Night arrives with her purple legionRetire now to your tents and to your dreamsTomorrow we enter the town of my birthI want to be ready`
