 Adolf Hitler is still alive

Ooooogh sssssh

I slept with her last night

Come out from behind

You favor life

He sides with Death

I straddle the fence

And my balls hurt

AMERICAN NIGHT

 

 All hail the American night!

 

 

 

What was that?

 

I don't know

 

Sounds like guns...thunder.

 

 

 

(Roadhouse Blues)

 

 

...Alright! Alright! Alright!

 

Hey, listen! Listen! Listen, man! listen, man!

 

I don't know how many you people believe in astrology...

 

 

Yeah, that's right...that's right, baby, I...I am a

 

Sagittarius

 

The most philosophical of all the signs

 

But anyway, I don't believe in it

 

I think it's a bunch of bullshit, myself

 

But I tell you this, man, I tell you this

 

I don't know what's gonna happen, man, but I wanna have

 

my kicks before the whole shithouse goes up in flames

 

Alright!

 

 

 

 

DOORS (THE)

AN AMERICAN PRAYER (I)

 

 Do you know the warm progress under the stars?

Do you know we exist?

Have you forgotten the keys to the Kingdom?

Have you been borne yet & are you alive?

Let's reinvent the gods, all the myths of the ages

Celebrate symbols from deep elder forests

[Have you forgotten the lessons of the ancient war]

We need great golden copulations

The fathers are cackling in trees of the forest

Our mother is dead in the sea

Do you know we are being led to slaughters by placid admirals

& that fat slow generals are getting obscene on young blood

Do you know we are ruled by T.V.

The moon is a dry blood beast

Guerilla bands are rolling numbers in the next block of green vine

amassing for warfare on innocent herdsmen who are just dying

O great creator of being grant us one more hour to perform our art & perfect our lives

The moths & atheists are doubly divine & dying

We live, we die & death not ends it

Journey we more into the Nightmare

Cling to life our passion'd flower

Cling to cunts & cocks of despair

We got our final vision by clap

Columbus' groin got filled w/ green death

(I touched her thigh & death smiled)

 We have assembled inside this ancient & insane theatre

To propagate our lust for life & flee the swarming wisdom of the streets

The barns are stormed

The windows kept & only one of all the rest

To dance & save us

W/ the divine mockery of words

Music inflames temperament

 (When the true King's murderers are allowed to roam free a 1000 magicians arise in the land)

 Where are the feasts

we were promised

Where is the wine

The New Wine

(dying on the vine)

resident mockery give us an hour for magic

We of the purple glove

We of the starling flight & velvet hour

We of arabic pleasure's breed

We of sundome & the night

Give us a creed

To believe

A night of Lust

Give us trust in

The Night

Give of color

hundred hues

a rich Mandala

for me & you & for your silky pillowed house

a head, wisdom & a bed

Troubled decree

Resident mockery

has claimed thee

We used to believe in the good old days

We still receive In little ways

The Things of Kindness & unsporting brow

Forget & allow

Did you know freedom exists in a school book

Did you know madmen are running our prison

w/in a jail, w/in a gaol, w/in a white free protestant

Maelstrom

We're perched headlong

on the edge of boredom

We're reaching for death

on the end of a candle

We're trying for something

That's already found us

We can invent Kingdoms of our own

grand purple thrones, those chairs of lust

& love we must, in beds of rust

Steel doors lock in prisoner's screams

& muzak, AM, rocks their dreams

No black men's pride to hoist the beams

while mocking angels sift what seems

To be a collage of magazine dust

Scratched on foreheads of walls of trust

This is just jail for those who must

get up in the morning & fight for such unusable standards

while weeping maidens show off penury & pout ravings for a mad staff

Wow, I'm sick of doubt

Live in the light of certain

South

Cruel bindings

The servants have the power dog men & their mean women

pulling poor blankets over our sailors

(& where were you in our lean hour)

Milking your moustache?

or grinding a flower?

I'm sick of dour faces

Staring at me from the T.V.

Tower. I want roses in my garden bower; dig?

Royal babies, rubies must now replace aborted

Strangers in the mud

These mutants, blood meal

for the plant that's plowed

They are waiting to take us into the severed garden

Do you know how pale & wanton thrillful

comes death on strange hour

unannounced, unplanned for like a scaring over friendly guest you've brought to bed

Death makes angels of us all & gives us wings where we had shoulders smooth as raven's claws

No more money, no more fancy dress

This other Kingdom seems by far the best until its other jaw reveals incest & loose obedience to a vegetable law

I will not go

Prefer a Feast of Friends

To the Giant family

 

 

 

 

DOORS (THE)

AN AMERICAN PRAYER (II)

 

 Great screaming Christ

Upsy daisy

Lazy Mary will get you up upon a Sunday morning

 The movie will begin in 5 moments

The mindless Voice announced

 All those unseated, will await The next show

We filed slowly, languidly into the hall. The auditorium was vast, & silent.

As we seated & were darkened

The Voice continued:

 The program for this evening is not new. You have seen This entertainment thru & thru.

You've seen your birth, your life & death; you might recall all of the rest

 (did you have a good world when you died?) enough to base a movie on?

An iron chuckle rapped our minds like a fist.

I'm getting out of here

Where're you going?

To the other side of the morning

Please don't chase the clouds

pagodas, temples

Her cunt gripped him

like a warm friendly hand.

 It's all right.

All your friends are here.

When can I meet them?

 After you've eaten

I'm not hungry

 O, we meant beaten

Silver stream, silvery scream,

impossible concentration

Here come the comedians

look at them smile

Watch them dance

an indian mile

Look at them gesture

How aplomb

So to gesture everyone

Words dissemble

Words be quick

Words resemble walking sticks

Plant them

They will grow

Watch them waver so

 I'll always be

a word man

Better than a birdman

But I'll charge

Won't get away

w/out lodging a dollar

Shall I say it again

aloud, you get the point

No food w/out fuel's gain

I'll be, the irish loud

unleashed my beak

at peak of powers

 O girl, unleash

your worried comb

 O worried mind

Sin in the fallen

Backwoods by the blind

She smells debt

on my new collar

 Arrogant prose

Tied in a network of fast quest

Hence the obsession

Its quick to admit

Fats borrowed rhythm

Woman came between them

Women of the world unite

Make the world safe

For a scandalous life

Hee Heee

Cut your throat

Life is a joke

Your wife's in a moat

The same boat

Here comes the goat

Blood Blood Blood Blood

They're making a joke

of our universe

 

 

 

 

 

DOORS (THE)

 A hot sick lava flowed up,

Rustling & bubbling.

The paper face.

Mirror mask, I love you mirror.

He had been brainwashed for 4 hrs.

 ready to talk

 No sir was all he'd say.

Go back to the gym.

Very peaceful

ANGELS AND SAILORS

 

 Angels and sailors

rich girls

backyard fences

tents

 

Dreams watching each other narrowly

soft luxuriant cars

Girls in garages, stripped

out to get liquor and clothes

half gallons of wine and six packs of beer

Jumped, humped, born to suffer

made to undress in the wilderness.

 

 

 

I will never treat you mean

 

Never start no kind of scene

 

I'll tell you every place and person that I've been.

 

 

 

Always a playground instructor, never a killer

 

Always a bridesmaid on the verge of fame or over

 

He manouvered two girls into his hotel room

 

One a friend, the other, the young one, a newer stranger

 

Vaguely Mexican or Puerto Rican

 

Poor boys thighs and buttock scarred by a father's belt

 

She's trying to rie

 

Story of her boyfriend, of teenage stoned death games

 

Handsome lad, dead in a car

If you'll only show me Far Arden again.

 

 

 

I'm surprised you could get it up

 

He whips her lightly, sardonically, with belt

 

Haven't I been through enough? she asks

 

Now dressed and leaving

 

The Spanish girl begins to bleed

 

She says her period

 

It's Catholic heaven

 

I have an ancient Indian crucifix around my neck

 

My chest is hard and brown

 

Lying on stained, wretched sheets with a bleeding virgin

 

We could plan a murder

 

Or start a religion.

My pretty child, my sweet one.

 

Choose the day and choose the sign of your day

First thing you see.

 

 

A vast radiant beach in a cool jeweled moon

 

Couples naked race down by it's quiet side

 

And we laugh like soft, mad children

 

Smug in the wooly cotton brains of infancy

 

The music and voices are all around us.

 

Choose they croon the Ancient Ones

 

The time has come again

 

Choose now, they croon

 

Beneath the moon

 

Beside an ancient lake

 

Enter again the sweet forest

 

Enter the hot dream

 

Come with us

 

Everything is broken up and dances.

know what happened but there were Indians scattered

 

all over the highway, bleeding to death.

 

 

So the car pulls up and stops. That was the first time

 

I tasted fear. I musta' been about four like a child is

 

like a flower, his head is just floating in the

 

breeze, man.

 

The reaction I get now thinking about it, looking

 

back is that the souls of the ghosts of those dead

 

Indians...maybe one or two of 'em...were just

 

running around freaking out, and just leaped into my

 

soul. And they're still in there.

 

 

Indians scattered on dawn's highway bleeding

 

Ghosts crowd the young child's fragile eggshell mind.

 

 

Blood in the streets in the town of New Haven

 

Blood stains the roofs and the palm trees of Venice

 

Blood in my love in the terrible summer

 

Bloody red sun of Phantastic L.A.

 

 

Blood screams her brain as they chop off her fingers

 

Blood will be born in the birth if a nation

 

Blood is the rose of mysterious union

 

Blood on the rise, it's following me.

 

 

Indian, Indian what did you die for?

 

Indian says, nothing at all.

DOORS (THE)

GRAVEYARD POEM

 

 It was the greatest night of my life.

Although I still had not found a wife

I had my friends

Right there beside me.

We were close together.

We tripped the wall and we scaled the graveyard

Ancient shapes were all around us.

The wet dew felt fresh beside the fog.

Two made love in an ancient spot

One chased a rabbit into the dark

A girl got drunk and balled the dead

And I gave empty sermons to my head.

Cemetary, cool and quiet

Hate to leave your sacred lay

Dread the milky coming of the day.

And heads bob up

Poise

Delicate

Pause

In mute nostril agony

Carefully refined

And sealed over

And their eyes are blue?

Did you know all table clothes

over a woman's thighs,

down over her ankles,

and over her little toes?

And the rings on her toes?

And her unquipped toe nails?

She rode and she rode on

She rode for a while

Then stopped for an evenin'

And lay her head down

 

She rode on to Christmas

She rode to the farm

She rode to Japan

And we entered a town

By this time the river

Had changed one degree

She asked for the people

To let her go free

She rode and she rested

Ghosts crowd the young child's fragile egg shell mind

Blood stains the roofs and the palm trees of Venice

Bloody red sun of phantastic L.A.

I'd really like to stay here all night

 

The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes

Street lights share their hollow glow

Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise

 

Still one place to go

Still one place to go

 

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen

Warm my mind near your gentle stove

Turn me out and I'll wander, baby

Stumbling in the neon groves

 

Your fingers weave quick minarets

Speak in secret alphabets

I light another cigarette

Learn to forget, learn to forget

Learn to forget, learn to forget

 

Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen

Warm my mind near your gentle stove

Turn me out and I'll wander, baby

Stumbling in the neon groves

 

Well the clock says it's time to close now

I know I have to go now

I really want to stay here all night

All night

All night

STONED IMMACULATE

 

 I'll tell you this...

 

No eternal reward will forgive us now

 

For wasting the dawn.

 

 

 

Back in those days everything was simpler and more confused

 

One summer night, going to the pier

 

I ran into two young girls

 

The blonde one was called Freedom

 

The dark one, Enterprise

 

We talked and they told me this story

 

Now listen to this...

 

I'll tell you about Texas radio and the big beat

 

Soft driven, slow and mad

 

Like some new language

 

Reaching your head with the cold, sudden fury of a divine messenger

 

Let me tell you about heartache and the loss of god

 

Wandering, wandering in hopless night

 

Out here in the perimeter there are no stars

 

 

 

Out here we is stoned

 

Immaculate.

The hostess is grinning

Her guests sleep from sinning

Hear me talk of sin and you know this is it

 

Strange days have found us

And through their strange hours

We linger alone

Bodies confused

Memories misused

As we run from the day

To a strange night of stone

DOORS (THE)

THE CELEBRATION OF THE LIZARD

 

 Lions in the street and roaming

Dogs in heat, rabid, foaming

A beast caged in the heart of a city

The body of his mother

Rotting in the summer ground

He fled the town

 

He went down South and crossed the border

Left the chaos and disorder

Back there over his shoulder

 

One morning he awoke in a green hotel

With a strange creature groaning beside him

Sweat oozed from its shiny skin

 

Is everybody in?

The ceremony is about to begin

 

 Wake up!

You can't remember where it was

Had this dream stopped?

The snake was pale gold

Glazed and shrunken

We were afraid to touch it

The sheets were hot dead prisons

 

Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom

Look!

I can't live thru each slow century of her moving

I let my cheek slide down

The cool smooth tile

Feel the good cold stinging blood

The smooth hissing snakes of rain . . .

 

Once I had, a little game

I liked to crawl back into my brain

I think you know the game I mean

I mean the game called 'go insane'

Now you should try this little game

Just close your eyes forget your name

Forget the world forget the people

And we'll erect a different steeple

This little game is fun to do

Just close your eyes no way to lose

And I'm right there I'm going too

Release control we're breaking thru

 

Way back deep into the brain

Back where there's never any pain

And the rain falls gently on the town

And in the labyrinth of streams

Beneath, the quiet unearthly presence of

Nervous hill dwellers in the gentle hills around

Reptiles abounding

Fossils, caves, cool air heights

 

Each house repeats a mold

Windows rolled

Beast car locked in against morning

All now sleeping

Rugs silent, mirrors vacant

Dust blind under the beds of lawful couples

Wound in sheets

And daughters, smug

With semen eyes in their nipples

 

Wait

There's been a slaughter here

 

(Don't stop to speak or look around

Your gloves and fan are on the ground

We're getting out of town

We're going on the run

And you're the one I want to come

 

Not to touch the earth

Not to see the sun

Nothing left to do, but

Run, run, 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

C'mon along, we're not going very far

To the East to meet the Czar

 

Some outlaws lived by the side of the 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

Sun, sun, sun

Burn, burn, burn

Soon, soon, soon

Moon, moon, moon

I will get you

Soon!, Soon!, Soon!

 

Let the carnival bells ring

Let the serpent sing

Let everything

 

We came down

The rivers and highways

We came down from

Forests and falls

 

We came down from

Carson and Springfield

We came down from

Phoenix enthralled

And I can tell you

The names of the Kingdom

I can tell you

The things that you know

Listening for a fistful of silence

Climbing valleys into the shade

 

I am the Lizard King

I can do anything

I can make the earth stop in its tracks

I made the blue cars go away

 

 For seven years I dwelt

In the loose palace of exile

Playing strange games

With the girls of the island

Now I have come again

To the land of the fair, and the strong, and the wise

Brothers and sisters of the pale forest

O Children of Night

Who among you will run with the hunt?

Now Night arrives with her purple legion

Retire now to your tents and to your dreams

Tomorrow we enter the town of my birth

I want to be ready'

silverware being dropped on linoleum, and then

somebody ran into the room and they said

 Have you seen the accident outside?

And everybody said:

 Hey man, have you seen the accident outside?

 

Have you seen the accident outside

Seven people took a ride

Seven people took a ride

Sever people died

Want the snakes to suck my skin

Want the worms to be my friends

Want the birds to eat my eyes

As here I lie

Ode to a grasshopper...

I think I'll open a little shop,

A little place where they sell things

And I think I'll call it Grasshopper ...

Looking real good...

As we seated and were darkened, the voice continued.

You've seen your birth your life and death

Did you have a good world when you died?

 

Enough to base a movie on?.

Out here we is stoned immaculate.

DOORS (THE)

WHISKEY, MYSTICS AND MEN

 

 Well, I ll tell you a story

of whiskey and mystics and men,

And about the believers and

how the whole thing began.

First there were women and

children obeying the moon,

Then daylight brought wisdom

and fever and sickness too soon.

You can try to remind me

instead of the other, you can.

You can help to insure

that we all insecure our command.

If you don t give a listen,

I won t try to tell your new hand.

This is it; can t you see

that we all have our ends in the band.

 

And if all of the teachers and

preachers of wealth were arraigned,

We could see quite a future

for me in the literal sands.

And if all the people

could claime to inspect such regrets,

well, we d have no forgiveness,

forgetfullness, faithful remorse.

So I tell you, I tell you,

I tell you we must send away.

We must try to find a

new answer instead of a way.

WHO DO YOU LOVE (ELIAS MCDANIEL)

 

 I walked 47 miles on barbed wire,

Got a cobra snake for a necktie.

I built a house by the roadside,

Made of rattlesnake hide.

Got a brand new chimney up on top,

Made out of human skulls.

Come on baby take a walk with me,

And tell me who do you love?

Who do you love? X3

Tombstone head and a graveyard mind,

I'm just 22 and I don't mind dying.

Rode around the town with a rattlesnake whip,

Come on baby don't give me no lip.

Who do you love? X3

The night is dark, the sky was blue,

Down the alley the ice wagon flew.

Hit a bump, somebody screamed,

You should'a heard just what I seen.

Who, baby, who do you love?

What do you love, now?

Love, love, love me girl.

Love, love, love me darling.

To freak out or to be beautiful, my dear?

Load your head, blow it up, feeling good, baby

Load your head, blow it up, feeling good, baby.

Well my room is so cold, you know you don't have to go, my babe.

And if you want it up right, I'm gonna love you tonight, my love.

Well I'm glad that we came, I hope you're feeling the same.

Who scared you and why were you born? Please stay.

Got a virgin carrying a heavy load,

One sack of silver and one bag of gold.
