Amon Düül II - Explode Like a Star lyrics

Deep inside, we're ready for a ride For a jump over gaps to the secret side From time immemorial, from time immemorial Imagine thoughts sent from lightsyears away By a star still shimmering at the sky A star that exploded ages ago It never will get your reply If we'd only knew 'bout the cosmic rules Why circles run in periods If we'd only knew 'bout the unknown codes We'd cry, we'd cry One grain of sand contains an universe And sunsystems in a grain of sand Are we actually living in a micro- Or a macro cosmic land Philosophers stone is rolling Somewhere to the nuclear bomb Should a fool once presses the bu*ton Than it's rather too late to rock and stomp Rather too late to rock and stomp Rather too late to rock and stomp Rather too late to rock and stomp All you possess is in our mind

So start with the inner revolution Einstein discreeted his last formula 'Cause it wouldn't have been mankinds solution Mr. Hitler was obsessed by demons Mr. Nero py a perverted game "Panem et circenses" for the crowd - Today isn't it just the same? What's all about those hexagrams Is it the "J" in their names, that has them k**ed Jimmy H., Janis J., Jim M. and B. Jones Or just another public-relation-thrill? So brother they tell you, to be jive to survive Save your believe, teeth, car and your guitar And take yourself just by the hand Smile gently while you explode like a star! While you explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star Explode like a star
