lyrics:
CRYPTICAL ENVELOPMENT The other day they waited, the sky was dark and faded, Solemnly they stated, "He has to die, you know he has to die." All the children learnin', from books that they were burnin', Every leaf was turnin', to watch him die, you know he had to die. The summer sun looked down on him, His mother could but frown on him, And all the other sound on him, He had to die, you know he had to die. THE FASTER WE GO THE ROUNDER WE GET Spanish lady come to me, she lays on me this rose. It rainbow spirals round and round, It trembles and explodes. It left a smoking crater of my mind, I like to blow away. But the heat came round and busted me For smilin' on a cloudy day. [Chorus] Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around, comin' around in a circle, Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around in a circle, Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around in a circle. Escapin' through the lily fields I came across an empty space It trembled and exploded Left a bus stop in its place The bus came by and I got on That's when it all began There was cowboy Neal At the wheel Of a bus to never-ever land [Chorus] CRYPTICAL ENVELOPMENT REPRISE And when the day had ended, with rainbow colors blended, Their minds remained unbended, He had to die, oh, you know he had to die.
