I was a traveler, in the TIME OF HIPPIES and RED WINE,

I spent my time, dancing the chorus, eating ouroboros,

I taught TIMOTHY LEARY all that he knew,

we sniffed glue,

I was his guide,

my brain was fried …

I am a traveler, and it’s all FINE.

He was a TRAVELER, in the time of BOBLIMPTOCK,

He spent his DAYS in a haze, drinking monkey spit,

He scolded ELVIS,

He sang to OLD CLOVIS,

It was ATROCIOUS,

He had his clam lover on TICK TOCK,

Cuz he was a traveler, and the road was cracked, and the SHIP was ROCKED.

***

She was a huntress, dressed in fiery love,

She was the QUEEN, fitting her kingdom like a glove,

She drank urchin wine and laughed before the swine.

She held court in MEMPHIS,

she was TEMPTRESS,

always scantily clad,

YOU DON’T MAKE HER MAD!

SHE’S A FUCKING TRAVELER!

***

We were travelers on the ROAD of DISARRAY,

we made love to the swamp birds but HEY,

if a cow got into our way?

We’ll launch a troll-beam and see the world gleam.

As if this were the farce,

as if we were the fools,

as if land were far way,

wasn’t it cool?

To be that TRAVELLER?

To be that DUDE …
