I found myself on the road to confusion

A dull mind and a weak constitution


I gave a ride to a medicine man


He had a glass eye white light in his hands

Now





I wanna run through the green green grass

Shine a light on the shadows of the past


I wanna feel like a Siamese twin


Mass appeal with a solitude spin




Oh now, oh now he stopped my world turnin'


Oh now, oh now this is a higher learnin'




Listen


Oh, and I bet that you don't even think about it

Do you now boy?


When they tell us that we couldn't live without it




We climbed up to the mountain snow


And in the valley we was laid so low


But we will rise like the Phoenix from the ashes

We will rise like the Phoenix from the ashes





Oh now, oh now this is a higher learnin'

Oh now, oh now my eyes are burnin'


Come to the light, come to the light


(Put your mind in the hands of the medicine man)

Come to the light, come to the light


(Put your mind in the hands of the medicine man)




Time is a slippery fish now


Time is a slippery fish now


Drink deep, let your memory slip down

Time is a slippery fish now


(Put your mind in the hands of the medicine man)




He says we're livin' underground


We've been asleep in a memory dreamin'

The spell was broken by the sound


The cut is deep but the wound is healin'



And we will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes


We will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes

We will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes


We will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes

I will rise like a Phoenix from the ashes




He says he speaks to the monsoon rain

Drink deep and you'll feel no pain

I came to on a desolate avenue


My legs are weak but my mind full of fortitude



Oh now, oh now he stopped my world turnin'


Oh now, oh now my eyes are burnin'

Come to the light, come to the light

(Put your mind in the hands of the medicine man)

Come to the light, come to the light


(Put your mind in the hands of the medicine man)



Time is a slippery fish now


Time is a slippery fish now

Drink deep, let your memory slip down

Time is a slippery fish now

(Put your mind in the hands of the medicine man)


Yea yea yea yea yea yea yea

Yea yea yea yea yea yea c'mon

Yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea yea
