Lysergic acid diathelyde but they called it LSD
it usually came on sugar cubes
or at least it did for me.
A journey beyond comprehension that's what the add men say
At the time I would have to agree with them,
perhaps not if I tried it today

Flower power all night love-ins, groovy chics and babes,
fore runners of peaceful protest, metal music and raves,
we were young but oh so foolish to believe the things we'd done
could ever bring about changes whilst politicians controlled the gun.

That's why they let us have our freedom to experiment with pot
after all they had developed LSD they knew our minds would rot
yes the Army were the inventors they tried on troops in the fifty's
thought to give it to the enemy then take them out when the're on trippys.

The music seemed more colourful as it echoed in my head
mindful of the controls in place it stopped us seeing red,
Bob Dylan Jefferson airplane the stones and the Beatles
Sonny and Cher, the turtles don't forget the crystals.

Music to tye die your kaftan in knots
high dose TCH to manage your spots
all the while dancing in mud with the elves and the pixies
Ah yes what a decade that was the swinging sixties.
