My Hallucination - Shaw Blades

Manson lived, Lennon died

You don’t know the reason why

I’m crying

Thirty years enough time for me Tell me who shot Kennedy

I’m dying

Long tall Sally

She comes and goes

Got diamond rings

All through her nose

Is that all we were fighting for?

Somewhere in my hallucination

I thought we were giving peace a chance

But what’s a revolution

When the music plays

And no one wants to dance

We paid the price in Vietnam

While crosses burned in Birmingham

I’m sighing

In Memphis now the church bells ring

While L.A. crowns a different king

Can’t we all get along

Hi-ho silver

Don’t you know

I just got faxed from Tokyo

Is that what we’re still fighting for?

Somewhere in my hallucination

I thought we were giving peace a chance

But what’s a revolution

When the music plays

And no one wants to dance

Fat chance

Going insane with the fun you’ve had

Who’s to blame when it all goes bad

You never know, whoo

Where you gonna go, whoo

Sliding down on a greasy rope

Check your watch

There goes your hope

Of hanging on yeah

In Yasger’s farm

A flower grows

And where it stops

Nobody knows

I’m flying

Somewhere in my hallucination

I thought we were giving peace a chance

So much for resolution

In my hallucination

I heard someone singing

All you need is love

But all I see

Is war and hate

Well I wonder if we’ll ever get enough
