Hijack Lyrics - Singles - Paul Kantner

Words: Kantner, Slick, Balin, Blackman 

Music: Kantner 

The summer was dry like your nose when you've been behind coke for a day and a 

season 

We sail out into the grasshopper nite and we seek the righteous poison 

Sunday morning in speedway, y'know the people come around for a reason 

SUNDAY MORNIN SUNDAY MORNIN 

The land is green and you make it grow, go to the forest and move 

The sound of thundering electrical energy calls us to the park in the noon 

C'mon anybody-now fill my pipe * to the park * to the forest and move 

When I feel you coming round me - ridin in the sun 

Goin home move your mind toward Mars and then beyond 

Genesis is not the answer to what we had before 

I we altogether in you 

You know I remember the 23rd of November 

In the abyss of Chicago you can see the barbed wire - pigs around a lot of 

nothin 

The witch hunters wail and they bark and they wheeze and they try to turn us 

into their poison 

You know - a starship circlin in the sky - it ought to be ready by 1990 

They'll be buildin it up in the air even since 1980 

People with a clever plan can assume the role of the mighty 

and HIJACK THE STARSHIP 

Carry 7000 people past the sun 

And our babes'll wander naked thru the cities of the universe 

Cmon 

free minds, free bodies, free dope, free music 

the day is on its way the day is ours 

You breathe out You breathe in 

And the glow of the machine'll get you on 

Moving slow, don't feel the changes 

Gracefully growing - as wild as we can be 

Only the sun knows what we really need to know 

Only the sun holds the secret 

And more than human can we be 

Cause human's truly locked 

To this planetary circle 

You gotta ride said the Doktor of space 

I have lived here once before 

The lites in the nite are a village of stars 

Of stars that I have explored 

Beyond the idea of beyond the void 

And beyond that and more 

Parallel lines in this village of stars 

Will lead you to the second door 

Time won't wait for the Doktor of space from the city of the sun to come 

WHERE DO YOU GO FROM HERE 

CHAOS OR COMMUNITY 

CAN'T YOU SEE - ON THIS AND FUTURE SUNDAYS 

7000 Gypsies swirlin together 

Offering to the sun in the name of the weather 

Gonna Hijack - HIJACK THE STARSHIP
