Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind
Dead kings, many things I can't define
Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind
Incense and peppermints, the color of time
Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win but nothin' to lose
Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns
Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around
Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah
Look at yourself, look at yourself, yeah, yeah, yeah!
To divide this cockeyed world in two
Throw your pride to one side, it's the least you can do
Beatniks and politics, nothing is new
A yardstick for lunatics, one point of view
Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win but nothin' to lose
Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind
Dead kings, many things I can't define
Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind
Incense and peppermints, the color of time
Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win but nothin' to lose
Incense and peppermints
Incense and peppermints
Sha la la, sha la la, sha la la, sha la la, sha la la
I first heard of this song through a game I play and I thought it sounded pretty cool. I like organ (keyboard) in this piece it makes it seem very psychedelic! I also like how the song makes absolutely no sense, and it reminds me of a time where love was in the air and peace and love.
Also the video for it is very cool! Not a lot of drummers sing lead.
I also found out that one of the guitarists became a member of Lynyrd Skynyrd, pretty groovy!
