Tuning my Guitar I'm thinking what I'm doing I'm thinking what I've done I'm thinking 'bout my mother Who never thought I'd come Quite this far from nowhere To hear myself be sung But I still haven't forgotten I used to do it just for fun When all the ones around me Would wonder if they saw Or heard me singing somewhere Tuning my guitar Knock once, I got ten minutes And every night's the same Sometimes I wish I wasn't in it When I hear them call my name Same people all around me And I wonder who they are I know they're not my family And they're not my friends by far They're all the ones around me I wonder who they are They hide behind my curtain And they hope I'll be a star And' they say, "Get out and sell them" But selling is not my aim I'm gonna sing the life I'm living And try to ease the pain Of all the ones around me No matter who you are Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain I'm tuning my guitar And all the ones around me I wonder who you are You hide behind my curtain And they hope I'll be a star But all the ones around me Who don't know who you are You hide and you look uncertain
Psychotherapy Oh mine eyes have seen the glory of the theories of Freud, He has taught me all the evils that my ego must avoid. Repression of the impulses resulting paranoid As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on There was a man who thought his friends to him were all superior And this complex he imagined made life drearier and drearier Till his analyst assured him that he really was inferior As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on Do you drown your superego in a flood of alcohol - or something else And go running after women till you're just about to fall. You may think you're having fun but you're not having fun at all As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on Oh sad is the masochism, the vagaries of sex Have turned half the population into total nervous wrecks. But your analyst will cure you, long as you can pay the cheques As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on Is your body plagued by aches and pains that you can't understand Compound fractures ingrown toenails, floating kidneys, trembling hands,
But you hope I'll be a star And all the ones, all around me I don't care who you are Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain I'm tuning my guitar All the ones, all the ones All the ones around me And I don't care who you are Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain I'm tuning my guitar Oh all the ones Who do you think that you are Tonight you're gonna hold the curtain I'm tuning my guitar
There's a secret to your trouble: you're in love with your old man As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on Freud's mystic world of meaning needn't have us mystified It's really very simple what the psyche tries to hide: A thing is a phallic symbol if it's longer than it's wide As the id goes marching on. Glory glory psychotherapy, glory glory sexuality, Glory glory now we can be free as the id goes marching on

Leftover Wine
Peace Will Come (According to Plan)
What do you do when the people go home? And what do you do when the show is all done? I know what I'll do in the alone of my time But what will I do with the leftover wine
There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one
A line from a poem of my childhood has said That visions of sugarplums were gonna dance in my head I'll spend my whole life making the time rhyme But I'll still have a bowl of leftover wine
For sometimes when I am feeling as big as the land With the velvet hill in the small of my back And my hands are playing the sand
I'll spend my whole life making the time rhyme And then I'm gonna run to the people And I'll sing 'em a song of mine You know I'm gonna do anything just to take up time 'Cause I can't find a taker for the leftover wine What do you do when the people go home?
And my feet are swimming in all of the waters All of the rivers are givers to the ocean According to plan, according to man Well sometimes when I am feeling so grand And I become the world And the world becomes a man And my song becomes a part of the river
What do you do when the show is all done? I know what I'll do in the alone of my time But what will I do with the leftover wine I'm gonna spend my whole life making the time rhyme And then I'm gonna run to the people And I'll sing 'em a song of mine, you know I'm gonna do anything just to take up time 'Cause I can't find a taker for the leftover wine I'll drink some of yours, if you'll drink all of mine Because I can't stand the taste of that leftover wine And I'm gonna drink some of yours, if you'll drink all of mine Because I can't stand the taste of leftover wine And I'll drink some of yours, if you'll drink all of mine I can't stand the taste of leftover wine
I cry out to keep me just the way I am According to plan According to man, according to plan According to man, according to plan Oh there's a chance peace will come In your life, please buy one Oh there's a chance peace will come In your life, please buy one For sometimes when we have reached the end With the velvet hill in the small of my backs And our hands are clutching the sand Will our blood become a part of the river All of the rivers are givers to the ocean According to plan, according to man There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one. There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one For sometime when we have reached the end With the velvet hill in the small of my backs And our hands are clutching the sand. There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one There's a chance peace will come in your life please buy one...
