Not To Touch The Earth - The Doors Lyrics
Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run
Let's run
House upon the hill
Moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run
Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run
The mansion is warm, at the top of the hill
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs
And you won't know a thing till you get inside
Dead president's corpse in the driver's car
The engine runs on glue and tar
Come on along, not goin' very far
To the East to meet the Czar
Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run
Whoa!
Some outlaws lived by the side of a lake
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl, we're almost home
Ya, c'mon!
We should see the gates by mornin'
We should be inside the evenin'
Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Soon, soon, soon
Moon, moon, moon
I will get you
Soon!
Soon!
Soon!
I am the Lizard King
I can do anything
| This is an excerpt from The Celebration Of The Lizard, a Jim
Morrison poem that was going to take up the first side of Waiting For
The Sun. This was the only part of the 24 minute song that was
compelling enough to put on the album, but the entire 133-line poem was
included on the album sleeve. |
| A song called "Go Insane" on The Doors 6-song demo for Aura records
in 1965 contains parts of this and other pieces from "The Celebration Of
The Lizard." |
