lyrics

Up in arms and armed with reason
I'm the medicine man on trial for treason
they found me down by the riverside bleedin'
just tryna get back all my natural feelings

I'm just tryna get back....

I had my sticks and stones, my skin and fat Lord...
flesh and bone made to rip and crack...
with tooth and nail, on my hands and knees man,
do you even remember your natural feelings?

I'm just tryna get back...

They try to give me diamonds and pearls, silk and satin
French cologne and a house in Manhattan
all the silver spoons made to feed and fatten
man your plastic and gold is such a deadly fashion.

I'm just tryna get back...

Now they give me steel and glass and a coal steam engine,
nuclear war and need i mention...
THEY PUT POISON IN THE WATER JUST TO CAUSE YOU TENSION
self destruction: man's greatest invention

but not me.... not me....

Did Jim Morrison really die in Paris, after hearing this band it seems none of The Doors have gone, they just changed their name and went underground. Fans of Jim and crew buy this ! The Midnight Toker.
