Tony Mansfield - Detour Thru Your Mind lyrics

Your brain is an ever changing kaleidoscope of moods and colors We walk in the park but it's melting in the dark All of a sudden your mood changes And your face looks like a cake left out in the rain Is your name MacArthur Parker? Or is it Reba? Detour thru your mind Supersaver to your mind We seem to float by yesterday's child, the new you The land time forgot and a horse with no mane As we go further into the gloom We chance upon a large orange room A key pops out of your nose, we open the door And all of a sudden we realize that we are no more From ear to ear, from here to now I hear another galaxy spinning around (Who am I?) From ear to ear, from here to now (Where am I going?) I hear another galaxy spinning around (How much will it cost?) A flash of blinding light And we're in an elegantly appointed doctor's office It seems that Dr. Aron bu*terfly Wants to dip us in plaster and use us for bookends We say to the doctor, "No! Please! No!" And then we get the doctor's bill. What a shock! $16,000, and all he wanted to do was dip us in plaster! (Detour thru your mind) Who am I? Who am I? Where have I been? Where am I going? (Supersaver to your mind) Do I need any luggage? Can I bring my mother? (Drug-free altered mindscape talk) Oh, wow! I can believe what I see! Here, try one of these (Detour thru your mind) 16 magenta bu*terflies (Oh, wow!) Dancing on the back of a maroon octopus (Supersaver to your mind) Now it's talking to a hippopotamus The hippopotamus is cussing us out Is this a bad dream?! Help! Help! This is so groovy! No, Dr. not another one of those! What do you mean ten dollars?! Ouch! I need to leave my past behind I need to leave my behind in the past (Backwards message) I buried my parakeet in the backyard Oh no, you're playing the record backwards Watch out, you might ruin your needle
