Lyrics for The Celebration of the Lizard by The Doors:
| | | Artist: | The Doors |
| | Album: | Unknown | | Track: | The Celebration of the Lizard | | | | Date Added: | 18/10/2007 | | Views: | 60 | | | | Lyrics: | Lions in the street and roaming
Dogs in heat, rabid, foaming
A beast caged in the heart of a
city
The body of his mother
Rotting in the summer ground
He fled the town
He
went down South and crossed the border
Left the chaos and disorder
Back there over his
shoulder
One morning he awoke in a green hotel
With a strange creature groaning beside
him
Sweat oozed from its shiny skin
Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to
begin
Wake up!
You can't remember where it was
Had this dream stopped?
The snake was
pale gold
Glazed and shrunken
We were afraid to touch it
The sheets were hot dead
prisons
Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom
Look!
I can't live thru each slow
century of her moving
I let my cheek slide down
The cool smooth tile
Feel the good cold
stinging blood
The smooth hissing snakes of rain . . .
Once I had, a little game
I
liked to crawl back into my brain
I think you know the game I mean
I mean the game called
'go insane'
Now you should try this little game
Just close your eyes forget your
name
Forget the world forget the people
And we'll erect a different steeple
This little
game is fun to do
Just close your eyes no way to lose
And I'm right there I'm going
too
Release control we're breaking thru
Way back deep into the brain
Back where
there's never any pain
And the rain falls gently on the town
And in the labyrinth of
streams
Beneath, the quiet unearthly presence of
Nervous hill dwellers in the gentle hills
around
Reptiles abounding
Fossils, caves, cool air heights
Each house repeats a
mold
Windows rolled
Beast car locked | | | |  Reddit | X / Twitter | Facebook | Copy link |
