EPIGRAPH: Oh, the way that Hendrix played
Everyone was getting laid
Dope was of the highest grade
Those were the days
Always knew who you could trust
Cruising in your micro-bus
They were them and we were us
Those were the days
All the things we're into then
Tarot cards, I Ching, and Zen
Mister, we could use a man like
Timothy Leary again!
Hardly needed any cash
Everybody shared their stash
Always had a place to crash
Those were the days!
