Jim Morrison's Grave
Am I a pilgrim,
or another souvenir hound?
In the city of lights
I set my sights
On a king's domain...
It was a manhole
dug over at the edge of town
and a spray can scrawl
on the cemetary wall
said, "You'd better behave..."
Jim Morrison's grave.
It's getting cold here
and there ain't a lizard in sight
did the end begin
when you shed your skin
in the home of the brave
Somebody shake him
from the land of larger than life
where the remnants warn
of a legend born
in a dead man's cave
Jim Morrison's grave
I stay driven 'cause there's nowhere to park
I can't shut my eyes--I'm afraid of the dark
I lie awake
that stone left me chilled to the bone
sound the alarm before it's done
find Jim Morrison
Come away to Paris
let him see another day
let him fade out slowly
only fools burn away
let a true love show him what a heart can become
somebody find Jim Morrison
find Jim Morrison's grave
I get weary
Lord, I don't understand
how does a seed get strangled in the heart of a man
then the music covers like an evening mist
like a watch still ticking on a dead man's wrist
tick away....
Once again, just being written does no justice to the Mad Genius. I love this song, because it's talking about how we make celebrities out to be larger than life when in reality, they're as mortal as the rest of us. Sorry, but that's all I have for today...beside's today's order...
Later,
Ozy
