The full lyrics to Soul-Writer's Birthday:
ReplyDeleteLyrics by Michael Nesmith
While riding on a donkey with a bright golden mane
I saw a prima donna who was acting quite insane
Calling out for all to hear a name that made no sense
While holding up for all to see a broken circus tent
It was Soul Writer’s Birthday
On the 25th of June
I saw brightly colored neon lights trickle through his hair
Casting weirdly shaped shadows, here, there, and everywhere
Leading little children through the park, watching out for rain
Telling fairytales and preaching love, amongst some other things
It was Soul Writer’s Birthday
On the 25th of June
It was Soul Writer’s Birthday
On the 25th of June
He’s living in a canyon house with cats and whirlybirds
Strung out behind incredible as his favorite word
Looking down and growing up with one eye partly blind
Eating chocolate covered grass and loving porcupines
It was Soul Writer’s Birthday
On the 25th of June
It was Soul Writer’s Birthday
On the 25th of June
Interesting lyrics! June 25th, 1967 was the day of the "Our World" broadcast with "All You Need Is Love." ("here, there, and everywhere"?) And also, "He’s living in a canyon house with cats and whirlybirds" - that almost sounds like a reference to Micky.
