When I was young they took me to the dentist
I had a toothache, but that's okay
They gave me some time and that night in my bedroom
I worked it loose, like I used to do
One little boy in a dentist's chair
Heard a hundred angels flying past him
What a gas, sitting there
The same little boy with a few more years
Took a sniff of this, a taste of that
What a drag, nothing there
And then one day he saw you walk
And heard you didn't talk
Saw the writing on the wall
It didn't thunder anymore
White lightening, it's got nothing on you
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Oh, it didn't shine like you Lord
White lightening, way out in the blue
With a million angels singin'
Oh, it didn't sound like you Lord
Come on to tell when I tell you to breathe in
I will take out everything while you're sleeping
Always refusing the heavenly music
When you awake, it will have a new meaning
White lightening, it's got nothing on you
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Oh, it didn't shine like you Lord
White lightening, way out in the blue
With a million angels singin'
Oh, it didn't sound like you Lord
Come on to tell when I tell you to breathe in
I will take out everything while you're sleeping
Always refusing the heavenly music
When you awake, it will have a new meaning
White lightening, it's got nothing on you
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Oh, it didn't shine like you Lord
White lightening, way out in the blue
With a million angels singin'
Oh, it didn't sound like you Lord
