The Painter Paints His Brushes Black, Through

Maybe We Should Raise Our Voices, Ask Somebody Why. But Demonstrations Are A Drag, Besides We're Much Too High.

The Yippie Demonstrations Were Merely An Attack Of Mental Disobedience On An Obediently Insane Society... And If You Feel You Have Been Living In An Unreal World For The Last Couple Of Years, It Is Particularly Because This Power Structure Has Refused To Listen To Reason... Step Outside The Guidelines Of The Official Umpires And Make Your Own Rules And Your Own Reality.

I Write All My Own Songs And They Are Just Simple Melodies With A Lot Of Lyrics. They Usually Have To Do With Current Events And What Is Going On In The News. You Can Call Them Topical Songs, Songs About The News, And Then Developing Into More Philosophical Songs Later.

It Is Wrong To Expect A Reward For Your Struggles. The Reward Is The Act Of Struggle Itself, Not What You Win. Even Though You Can't Expect To Defeat The Absurdity Of The World, You Must Make That Attempt. That's Morality, That's Religion. That's Art. That's Life.

If You Ever Get A War Without Blood And Gore, Well, I'll Be The First To Go.
