Alejandro Miramontes
I was riding in the sky
and i saw a strange looking land
i swaggered over there
to a house and a funny looking man
he invited me inside
saw such things i'd never seen before
it was strange
(in his house)
there was a table upside down
with no legs and a funny coloured pink
there wasn't any chairs
so i sat on the edge of a sink
i had tea in a clock
and i ate a piece of green rock
it was strange
(in his house)
was i just imagining
or was this really happening to me?
perhaps it's just a funny dream
but to me it seems so real
open feeling in my mind
i'm in a trance or i must be
i went up the stairs
to the cellar which was on the top floor
i went down the stairs
to the attic which was on the floor before
i landed in the garden how i did was a mystery to me
it was strange
(in his house)
i walked down the garden path
found myself sitting on a bed
it was suspended in mid air
with no springs not even any legs
so i laid my head down
went to sleep hoping i would disappear
it was strange
(in his house)
i'm back riding in the sky
near my home i hope that i
become awake when i arrive
hoping that this dream has died
if it don't i know that i
will have no peace until i die

This is a masterpiece of psychedelia with power including the vocals. Incredible obscure gem!!
John Smith
even prettier and groovier than i remember it as a child - this kind of music always improves the quality of existance, no matter what the situation & should be required listening for today's music students
Stephen Kornfeind
Killer drum sound, especially the snare backbeat!
