The Doors - Mental Floss (Backstage and Dangerous)

LYRICS:

All deserters will be shot at five o'clock tomorrow morning.

So get yourselves together and quit messing around.

No more nonsense.

The assassination occurred at three thirty.

No one was there to witness it.

Even the breviaries had left their tapestries on the window.

And we were all silenced by the sad mildewed cloud that followed around.

I wish I was back in the land of the, of the, of the...

I wish I was back in... I wish...

You can't pin that one on me, I didn't do a goddamn thing.

I was just standing there, then a bunch of guys came up

and started laying all this shit on me.

Now what am I supposed to do?.

I'm an American, you can't touch me.

Did you know all nuns are forty-two and their eyes are blue?

Did you know all tablecloths?

Are white in France?

Did you know women wear underpants?

They do.

How does a musician imitate

the sound of underpants sliding over a woman's thighs?,

Down over her ankles?,

And over her little toes?,

And the rings on her toes?,

And her unclipped toe nails?

Lightning struck the magic purse.

I didn't do a damn thing, man.

I was just standing there,

in front of the delicatessen,

and all these rabbis ran up,

and a bunch of indians,

and freaks and monsters,

and just started talking

in all these weird languages.

What I... What I could say?

Hey, I'm tired of being a freaky musician.

I want to be Napoleon!

Let's have some more wars around here.

What a stinking shitty little war!

We have running over there.

Let's get a big one, a real big one,

with a lot of killings and bombs and blood.

School days, school days,

good old-fashioned rule days.

School days, school days,

good old-fashioned rule days.
