This Trip
(a rap)
I’ve been wandering’ ‘round this planet
like a knight upon a quest
or Alice deep in Wonderland—
a damsel in distress
It’s something like a trip
and I can’t come down
sometimes I feel like Supergirl
and sometimes like a clown
Then someone waves a wand
and everything is different
the pumpkins turn to limos
and I don’t know where the ashes went
I see with new eyes
And I hear with new ears
My Heart has filled my body
And everything is clear…
And then another cycle passes
and the clouds roll in
the dream is now a nightmare
and I can’t see a thing…
I’m like a puppet on a string
and I’m yellin’ at the Master:
change this bloody role
I want the fruit to ripen faster
Don’t leave me in this nightmare
pretending more is less
wave your Hand and change the script
and do it with finesse
Let’s see a little elegance
let’s move into impeccable
eliminate ridiculous
and manifest respectable
What am I doin’ here
playin’ blind man’s bluff?
remove the veil, reveal the Light
enough is enough
For more than half a century (senchry)
I’ve been goin’ through these motions
I’m tired of confusion
and I’m fed up with commotion
Pull the plug on this movie
strike the set and haul the trash
we need a new production
and it calls for some cash
Bring in the major players
the ones in the know
let’s cut out all this bullshit
and get on with the show!
Let's get on with the show.
