(John Phillips)
| Strange young girls
| Covered with sadness;
| Eyes of innocence
| Hiding their madness.
| Walking the strip -
| Sweet,soft,and placid -
| Offering their youth
| On the alter of acid.
|
| Thinking these gifts
| Were sent by the dove;
| All for the trip
| Accompanied by love.
|
| Gentle young girls,
| Holding hands walking;
| Wisdom flows childlike
| While softly talking.
| Colors surround them
| Bejewling their hair;
| Visions astound them,
| Demanding their share.
| Children of Orpheus
| Called by the dove -
| All for the trip
| Accompanied by love.
|
| Thinking these gifts
| Were sent by the dove -
| All for the trip
| Accompanied by love.
