Psychological effects
Sometimes early psychological changes
Coincide with the early physical changes
Experienced while being stoned
But the famous mind expansion
Comes after the famous physical sensations
Gra** heightens and distorts
For example
Profound revelations
You may think that you have profound revelations
Only to discover later that they are none too profound
For example, profound revelation number one
Survival of the species is everybody's business
Profound revelation number two
No matter how much you may dislike pickles
It is after all, the only thing you can do with cucumbers
What may cause this magnification of the importance of certain things
Is that your mind seems to be racing along
And sometimes you're wondering a number of things simultaneousy
There is also that fact that you tend to forget everything
Almost as soon as it happens
And certain thoughts can take on secondary, and even tertiary, and even-
(Hey man what are you talking about?)
I think I forgot
Let's listen in on a quiet scene
In the little house down the street
Andy and Virginia are very stoned
And are spending the evening listening to their collection of old records
And giggling a lot
Let's listen in
[Andy & (Virginia)]
I'm all discombobulated
(Are you hungry?)
Hungry? No, no
Now wait a minute now
Did you mean am I hungry for food
Or am I hungry in the abstract
Like hungry for knowledge or adventure
(What were we talking about?)
You asked if I was hungry
(Oh did I?)
Well yes
(Well are you?)
Am I what?
Am I what?
I don't even know my own name
