The Lizards - Phish[00:00:00]
Passing through the corridor[00:00:33]
I came upon an aging knight[00:00:35]
Who leaned against the wall in gnarly armor[00:00:37]
He was on his way to see the king[00:00:41]
Wilson Wilson Wilson[00:00:45]
He led me through the streets of Prussia talking[00:00:52]
As he tried to crush a bug[00:00:55]
That scurried underneath his boot heel[00:00:57]
He said there was a place where we should go[00:01:00]
So he lead me through[00:01:06]
The forest to the edge of a lagoon by which[00:01:07]
We wandered 'til we reached a bubbly spring[00:01:10]
The knight grew very quiet as we stood there[00:01:14]
Then he lifted up his visor and[00:01:17]
He turned to me and he began to sing[00:01:19]
He said "I come from the land of darkness"[00:01:22]
I said "I come from the land of doom"[00:01:24]
He said "I come from the land of Gamehendge[00:01:26]
From the land of the big baboon[00:01:28]
But I'm never never going back there[00:01:30]
And I couldn't if I tried[00:01:32]
'Cause I come from the land of lizards[00:01:34]
And the lizards they have died[00:01:35]
And the lizards they have died[00:01:37]
And the lizards they have died[00:01:39]
And the lizards they have"[00:01:41]
He told me that the lizards[00:02:00]
Were a race of people practically extinct[00:02:01]
From doing things smart people don't do[00:02:04]
He said that he was once a lizard too[00:02:07]
His name was Rutherford the Brave[00:02:19]
And he was on a quest to save[00:02:21]
His people from the fate that lay before them[00:02:23]
Their clumsy end was perilously near[00:02:27]
The lizards would be saved he said if they could be enlightened[00:02:33]
By the writings of the Helping Friendly Book[00:02:35]
In all of Prussia only one existed[00:02:40]
And Wilson had declared[00:02:44]
That any person who possessed it was a crook[00:02:46]
He said "I come from the land of darkness"[00:02:49]
I said "I come from the land of doom"[00:02:51]
He said "I come from the land of Gamehendge[00:02:52]
From the land of the big baboon[00:02:54]
But I'm never never going back there[00:02:56]
And I couldn't if I tried[00:02:58]
'Cause I come from the land of lizards[00:03:00]
And the lizards they have died[00:03:02]
And the lizards they have died[00:03:04]
And the lizards they have died[00:03:06]
And the lizards they have"[00:03:07]
The Helping Friendly Book it seemed[00:03:26]
Possessed the ancient secrets[00:03:28]
Of eternal joy and never-ending splendor[00:03:30]
The trick was to surrender to the flow[00:03:34]
We walked along beneath the moon[00:03:45]
He lead us through the bush 'till soon[00:03:47]
We saw before our eyes a raging river[00:03:50]
He said that we could swim it if we tried[00:03:53]
And saying this the knight dove[00:03:59]
In forgetting that his suit of arms[00:04:01]
Would surely weigh him down and so he sunk[00:04:02]
And as his body disappeared before me[00:04:06]
I bowed my head in silence[00:04:10]
And remembered all the thoughts that he had thunk[00:04:12]
He said "I come from the land of darkness"[00:04:15]
I said "I come from the land of doom"[00:04:17]
He said "I come from the land of Gamehendge[00:04:18]
From the land of the big baboon[00:04:20]
But I'm never never going back there[00:04:22]
And I couldn't if I tried[00:04:24]
'Cause I come from the land of lizards[00:04:26]
And the lizards they have"[00:04:28]
