I wanna go somewhere out Out to the edge of what's real I wanna fly up in the sky Swim with dolphins in warm seas Create music without the lies Bring the big shots all down to size and I wanna smile when I see folks around me Spend a day without frowns Sing a place with lots of crowds Feel so free I'd wanna laugh out loud I wanna go somewhere out Out to the edge of what's real And would you know on my way out I got to thinkin' just how I feel And there's a lot of folks besides me Livin' out a lie and it's a shame Growning old and bitter Lookin' around for someone to blame Baby, it's like livin' with an open wound Baby, it's like livin' with an open wound Baby, it's like livin' with an open wound Baby, it's like livin' with an open wound And it drains you It drains you I wanna go somewhere out Where I can start to heal I wanna go somewhere out Out to the edge of what's real I wanna go somewhere out Let's not take the car Wander the woods looks to see Just who finds the evening star And it drains you It drains you

And he goes to parties with her on his hand And she'd make that boy right into a man Life must be tough when you're in demand When we are together I want you in leather When we are together I want you in leather And he thinks a good thing is right in his hands But we all know she's in demand Life must be tough for you, man When we are together I want you in leather When we are together I want you in leather And he goes to parties And he goes to parties And he goes to parties

Flying East 02:21
I'd like to get on a plane come to see ya Lots of neat things that I've got to bring ya Get out of what this world is doing to me Gotta get out of the East Bay I almost lost my cool today I'm fishing for reasons not drive my car over the edge End it all Lookin' forward to flying East Find a way to reach my peace I wanna spank the kitty Tell my story Look for pity Gotta get down to the nitty gritty When you coming West, man WEST MAN Lookin' forward to flying East Find a way to reach my peace Lookin' forward to flying East Yeah, we'll have fun at least And if you me I'll tell ya I'm flyin' east Gonna hang out at the Mansion I'm flyin' east I'm gonna sleep with a cat named Spim I'm flyin' east Spend some time with my friends Cuz I'm flyin' east

Phate 03:44
Wile your days away While your life turns gray It's there to haunt you Try and get your senses in orders Got to try and make it start And I've never felt this way Cross your fingers Pray it's your phate And wish for it Your dream is not for everyone My dreams are far from done I wish for world prosperity And yet I give little to anyone And I've never felt this way Give your dreams a chance Give your life a moment to recover Think of all the time you've spent in the fire And I've never felt this way Cross your fingers Pray it's your phate And wish for it Throw caution into the wind and sail with me Worlds we can see Sailing the seas together And I've never felt this way Groove your life on down to the dock we're on if you're coming We're got room board bring the Lord if you have him And I have felt this way before Cross your fingers Pray it's your phate And wish for it

North Bay crusin' I'm feelin' right East Bay crusin' by the end of the night She waits up and she's out of sight It feels like I'm home and it's all right Fog bound drifter the ocean of luck Float down the highway I never get stuck On the East bound passage I make my way To the home I know across the Bay Rain Station tape and a stick of incense Its my life now and it's startin' to make sense Lights from the bridge glare my eyes As the moon hangs bright in the nighttime sky North Bay crusin' I'm feelin' right East Bay crusin' by the end of the night She waits up and she's out of sight It feels like I'm home and it's all right North Bay crusin' I'm feelin' right East Bay crusin' by the end of the night She waits up and she's out of sight It feels like I'm home and it's all right East shore freeway I'm sailing away As I cruise full throttle through the East Bay Cool breeze mixing with the sense of movin' Caught in a vibe and there's no losin' When I'm going to see her I'm on my way home When I'm on this road I know I am on my way home North Bay crusin' I'm feelin' right East Bay crusin' by the end of the night She waits up and she's out of sight It feels like I'm home and it's all right North Bay crusin' I'm feelin' right East Bay crusin' by the end of the night She waits up and she's out of sight It feels like I'm home and it's all right North Bay crusin' I'm feelin' right East Bay crusin' by the end of the night She waits up and she's out of sight It feels like I'm home and it's all right

Little 03:35
Just lay me down Deep in the ground Let me sleep for all eternity Cast your flowers make your wish Pry the bottle from my lips My soul is leaving Flying Through the mist tonight The howling winds can tell you something And I know I know so little The howling winds carry me homeward The moonlight in your eyes Tells me little You've laid me down and cast your flowers I haunt the shadows I'm with you Forever Baby It started raining again Baby Goin' insane Wondering If I should fall asleep tonight I'm crazy So crazy Falling on knees to my grave I know I know so little My intentions may all be lost I know I know so little As I slip away I know I know so little My intentions may all be lost I know I know I know I know so little

Follow your stars Create your dreams Things aren't as bad As they may seem The moon smiles down from midnight skies We all grow old Some grow wise Find your way Accept your fate Got a lot to live for Celebrate The sun burns hot from the noontime sky We all grow old Some grow wise When I get a little older When I get a little wiser Once I get a little quicker I can touch the sky When I get a little older When I get a little wiser Once I get a little quicker I can touch the sky Solve your crimes Do you time Heaven watches from on high We all grow old Some grow wise When I get a little older When I get a little wiser Once I get a little quicker I can touch the sky When I get a little older When I get a little wiser Once I get a little quicker I can touch the sky

Yeah They sell something I can get for free Pills for fear or for pain or for glee I got your somethin' for a swinging mood Yeah I got somethin' and it's always good It's always good Like you wanted it to be I'll swing that mood Like it you know it should be Yeah They sell something I can get for free Pills for fear or for pain or for glee I got your somethin' for a swinging mood Yeah I got your somethin' and it's always good

about

mopehead California

"Psychedelic effects lend these admittedly mopey songs the lackadaisically sad quality of Spirit's "Nature's Way." Dreamy, dazed male vocals, prominent acoustic guitar and tie-dyed acoustic oddities. Try to imagine the Flaming Lips simply smoldering. ..." ... more
