There's a whirlwind of steel upon this stage
its a tripped out psychedelic coming of age
there's a paisley storm far as I can see
there's a lava lamp playground surrounding me
Tuned in, turned on, dropped out of sight
I got new glasses that bend the light
got a new sound make senses reel
got a lemonade teapot, smoke banana peels
And I play guitar for a cosmic band
and I'm floating here right where I stand
yeah I play guitar for a cosmic band
and I'm soaring right out of my mind
The crowd is hidden by smoke and light
enveloped by surging waves of psyche
sound transcending time and space
reality vanished without a trace
Tuned in, turned on, dropped out of sight
got new glasses that bend the light
got a top hat oven set to bake
got a bowl of cereal inside my safe
And I play guitar for a cosmic band
and I'm floating here right where I stand
yeah I play guitar for a cosmic band
and I'm soaring right out of my mind
There's a whirlwind of steel upon this stage
its a tripped out psychedelic coming of age
there's a paisley storm far as I can see
there's a lava lamp playground surrounding me
Tuned in, turned on, dropped out of sight
I got new glasses that bend the light
got a jungle scene in my backyard
got lost inside the candy jar
And I play guitar for a cosmic band
and I'm floating here right where I stand
yeah I play guitar for a cosmic band
and I'm soaring right out of my mind
