Safe As Milk lyrics

Go back ten years ago sunbeams dancing round
Go back ten yeas ago sunbeams dancing down
Autumn's child Autumn's child

Autumn's child got a loophole round her finger
Halo rings her head
Cornhusk hair makes me linger
A cat's stare meet s my dare
A man's chair greets my stare
Gonna be my wife she sang she said
Gonna be my wife gonna spice my life she said

Where there's truth the green valley steals cottonwood
Where there's peace a little cloud of music gleams brotherhood
Where there's love I'd be a boy if I could
Where there's woman I'd hold her when I should
Where there's woman

Where there's woman honey wine
Where there's woman loving time
Where there's love for a lover of my kind

Where there's evil a hounds tooth bears white

Phos'phrous chimney burnin'
Modern-men's a-learnin'
Time and space a-turnin'
Motor's engine churnin'
fac'trys no place for me boss man let me be

Wind and wave all blowin'
Mountain 'n sky showin'
Bee 'n flower growin'
Boy 'n girl are glowin'
fac'trys no place for me boss man let me be

Minds inside are goin'
Muscle 'n bone are showin''
One thing sure am knowin'
Get a fire goin'

Long [originally 'song'] before song before song blues
Babbette baboon [repeat] abba zaba zoom
Two shadows at Noon, Babbette baboon [repeat]
Comin' over pretty soon, Babbette baboon
Run, run, catch her [originally 'catch her up'] soon, draft of dawn, sunshine on Babbette baboon
Mother say son, she say son, you can't lose, with the stuff you use

Around the corner the wind blew back follow the yellow brick road
It ended up in black on black
I was taught the gift of love
Smiling children painted joy sunshine bright girl and boy
bag of trick s and candy sticks peppermint kite for my toy
Yellow brick black on black
Keep on walking and don't look back

I walked along happy and them came back
I follow the yellow brick road

Singin through you to me
Thunderbolts caught easily
Shouts the truth peacefully
Electricity

High voltage man kisses night to bring the light to those who need to hide their shadow deed
Go into bright find the light and know that friends don't mind just how you grow

Midnight cowboy stained in black reads dark roads without a map
To free-seeking electricity (repeat) (Repeat both lines)

(so sad baby so glad girl)
When you first came round I was sad
My head hung down I felt really bad
Now I'm glad, glad about the good times that we've had

Walked in the park
kissed in the dark

leaves burned just like just like a spark
Now I'm glad
glad about the good times that we've had

You went away I cried night and day
for what you done I had to pay

You wanna do what (repeat) I told you what (repeat) (repeat both)
Go ta school (repeat) just cain't (repeat) dropout (repeat)
Ya getta job (repeat) Dunno whattit (repeat)
What it's all about (repeat)
you told her ya love her so figured her mother ya love her adapt her
(repeat) adapt her adapter (repeat)

Support her (repeat) she says she's no boarder

Call on me whenever you're lonely and blue
In my house whenever you need me to call on you
At any time baby that you need love
And a little of that understanding too
Feel free love to call on me love cause I'm gonna call on you
I'll be there most any time of day call on me
To see you baby in the same old loving way call on me
If in the night you call and I'm away

Zig zag wanderer, zig zag wanderer (rep.)
You can huff, you can puff
You'll never blow my house down
You can zig, you can zag
Whoa I'm gonna stay, gonna stay around (rep.)

You can jump, you can holler
Never lose what I found
Heaven's free 'cept for a dollar
You can zig, you can zag
Whoa I'm gonna stay, gonna stay around (rep.)

The zig zag wanderer had a zigzag child
