lyrics

verse1:

Hell raiser
Trailblazer
Pale horse rider
Railroad rager
Spell binder
Failsafe breaker
Intoxicate the devil & curtail danger
The LA woman’s nature
could never jailbait ya
You break on through to the other side
Savior of lost American prayers
So was that your plan
To escape as the Back Door Man
Heyoka
Peyote joker
Sacred blood oather
The native ghosts chose ya
To uphold the culture
Of those who crossed over
Spaceholder
Shapeshifter, Stage show whore
Lewd deplorer
Naked truth knower
Never sober
Flame stoker
Untamed yet innocent
Vain cuz you knew the game old as
Any charade
In the age of rock-n-rollers
You prosed like Homer
But they all called you vulgar
Your words powered while waiting for the solar
Misread by intellects closed toward ya
But you open the doors of perception for the dosers
We indulge the trip on a road home nowhere
5 to 1, Way before the takeover
You gave voice to the unknown soldier
Oh yeah


verse2:

Jim Morrison
Import us in
When the story ends
shatter porcelain
For all mortal men
Who stir hornets’ nests
Just to bare the sting
Weened from our mother’s breasts
Too early in the dream
It seems father’s fault
A sworn nemesis
I see you as Oedipus
soaring on a Pegasus
The way to redemption is treacherous
Ya boy Ray play the bassline on the keys
& Robby could Light a fire on the guitar strings
& John beat the drum shaped rock to classic
Now Ride the storm where you conjure magic
You bring the drama to the concert tragic
American Pie, alcohol & acid
It’s like you knew it was all a fabrication
Of illusion, falling fastest
Short-lived, & you called it what it was
Showed us the outcome, the young ones suffer from
In this time of peace, it was a time of war
The giants have deceased, so have the dinosaurs
& you were the Lizard King, who could do anything
Whatever that it took, to heal the inbetween
The veil of life & death, you understood perfect
You infused the blues with poetry for this very purpose
So why not chart the billboards?
Enjoy the exploits that many fools kill for
But y’all was real raw
The Doors was its own experience to build on
& I guess you did it all
Paris was a gentle note for you to end this song
With Janis & Hendrix in Club 27
Legend
