Crystal Ball Lyrics - Jimi Hendrix

As I looked into my crystal ball... 

There was formed a tragedy. 

Oh but there's nothing to worry about... 

It was just a flash from my memory. 

Well it seems that the holiday wheel..., 

You know, the one that was between earth 

And the moon...well any way, there was 

2,000,000 killed...bodies floating in the 

Afternoon... 

Explosions, 1,000 or more, announcing 

Tidal waves and hurricanes... 

And down on earth we lost 3 continents. 

Their fiery soul snuffed out by 

Nature's ice and rains...

5 Totally Underrated Christmas Songs 

And pieces of my life...floating, 

Still soaring through space... 

But my sons and their wives 

Landed on mars to start another race... 

As I gazed upon my crystal ball, 

There formed a cloud of jealousy. 

But there's nothing to feel sad about... 

By this time, it's due for only history. 

Well, it seems that the chambers of the 

Gods were being emptied for good. 

Why would such heavenly beings want 

To desert earth ? 

But as I watched I understood. 

As the clouds turned to a jealous 

Green, which was concieved in the heart 

Of man...the people didn't respect 

The help of the gods. instead they turned against 

Immortal man. as they tried to defy, they 

Died, into the wicked pits of hell.

Diana wept a tear after we made love 

And said: my earthly darling, I must bid 

You farewell...the fate of your mud brothers ... 

As pieces of my life...floating, 

Still soaring in space... 

She could have been my wife 

But her time, I didn't dare wish 

To waste. 

As I stared into my crystal ball, 

There was formed a tearing of hearts. 

Ego armies marched antly onto view 

Only to be blown apart. 

As the sun whispered it's secret 

Through space...to men thinking the false pride 

Opposite...telling them that it was 

Such a disgrace to think that men were 

The ruler of it. well you know 

How the story goes...the sun they thought 

Was their circling slave... 

Round and round and round the 

Table she goes. some carried 

The thought right to their grave... 

And I smell the scorch of the 

Burnt out minds...who searched 

For the hurting truth of space. and the 

Dizziness they felt inside... 

Reflected off the spinning 

Slave pebble earth... 

As fragments of my life... 

Some floating, some soaring in space 

Collections of my soul 

Will turn complete only as time will age. 

As my tears drop on my crystal ball, 

Magnifies the reflections of christ. 

As I blink, his angels take him away. 

What he said, man tries to self 

?help from god. as reward, he 

Wipes our blood from his eyes... 

And the cross that he would 

Use for his throne represents 

Not life but death. is this the way 

All heroes go ? ...carrying the first necklace 

Of death... 

His preaching the belief 

Of eternal happiness to rest. 

Or were his angels just ufos 

Vapor trails lead from 

Another light year land... 

Or was it really tomorrow's 

Awakening day dream...blemished 

By the smudgy finger prints of man... 

And slivers of my life...floating, 

Still soaring in space... 

And spirits of bee hives 

Even they find a resting place. 

As I wander through my crystal ball, 

I suddenly ride upon the waves of sound. 

I see platforms of launching 

Pads even before the first blade of 

Grass turned brown. 

And I taste their tunnels through 

The sky...as the axis turns in it's womb. 

Frozen flowers and animals try to 

Hold positions they had before 

Their morning bloomed... 

And I follow the last rocket up 

To the libraries of the moon's meadows.
