Shawn Phillips - Coming Down Soft And Easy lyrics

Phillips Tell a tale of married men Of simple shells and curried zen Falling through the world of when Today Serpent coils and hydrofoils You don't believe what he does with oils Speaking words that he said once Yesterday Peaches are predominant Peace has got no counterpoint Peter said he had to go nowhere Away But could it be a grand joke A puff of smoke Yes it's but a great day To know the way Don't you see the huge clouds go flying by Don't you know Deep down we all are bu*terflies Just you take another look round What you been seeing What's been running through your mind Is all we have at all Have you been to the tinkers' ball Waiting for the light to come again Yes, we was sitting on a rooftop Looking at the planets Have you looked out there? Today is like tomorrow then A little scared of the affairs of men Everybody also knows that they're been afraid 'Cause they are frightened by a love life with everybody Terrified by the thought of Unity is probable Vanity is escapable Violence, the workings of a tortured mind Waterbeds are really fun Sleeping in the baking sun Debbie's disappointed But I think she knows it's right Jellyfish are dangerous Politics are perilous And I'm really glad that I'm not Richard's friend 'Cause I say s**ual repression can make a lot of trouble It can only lead to Craziness Is in the head The heart is short of being dead Have you got a reason for survival in the fall Oh look at blood-soaked Charlie on a silk-stained bedsheet Can you tell me do you really want to Die in all your false belief? I tell you now that there is no relief Oh, you really gotta grow again Psychosomatic delusions of euphoria Better dig it now Before the coming in memoriam Could it be a grand joke A puff of smoke Yes it's but a great day To know the way Don't you see the huge clouds go flying by Don't you know Deep down we all are bu*terflies
