歌手: Gil Scott-Heron
时长: 02:53
Glad to get high and see the slow motion world [00:00:10]
Just to reach and touch the half notes floating [00:00:15]
Dave Brubeck [00:00:22]
We come now frantically searching for Thomas Moore rainbow villages [00:00:23]
Up on suddenly [00:00:29]
Charlie Mingus [00:00:30]
And our man [00:00:31]
Abdul Malik [00:00:31]
To add bass to a bottomless pit of insecurity [00:00:33]
You may be plastic because you never meditate [00:00:38]
About the bottom of glasses The third side of your universe [00:00:41]
Add on [00:00:47]
Alice Coltrane [00:00:48]
And her cosmic strains [00:00:49]
Still no vocal on blue black horizons [00:00:51]
Your plasticity is tested by a formless assault [00:00:56]
The sun can answer questions in tune to all your sacrifices [00:00:59]
But why would our new jazz age give us no more mind expanding puzzles [00:01:04]
Enter [00:01:09]
John [00:01:10]
Blow from under always and never so that the morning the sun [00:01:11]
May scream of brain bending saxophones [00:01:15]
The third world arrives with [00:01:18]
Yusef Lateef [00:01:20]
And [00:01:21]
Pharaoh Saunders [00:01:21]
With oboes straining to touch the core of your unknown soul [00:01:22]
Ravi Shankar [00:01:26]
Comes with strings attached prepared to stabilize your seventh sense [00:01:27]
Your black rhythm [00:01:32]
Up and down a silly ladder run the notes without the words [00:01:35]
Words are important for the mind but the notes are for the soul [00:01:40]
Miles Davis [00:01:44]
So what [00:01:45]
Cannonball [00:01:46]
Fiddler [00:01:47]
Mercy [00:01:48]
Dexter Gordon [00:01:49]
One Flight Up [00:01:50]
Donald Byrd [00:01:51]
Playing Cristo but what about words [00:01:52]
Would you like to survive on sadness Call on [00:01:55]
Ella [00:01:59]
And Jose Happiness [00:01:59]
Drift with [00:02:00]
Smokey [00:02:01]
Bill Medley [00:02:02]
Bobby Taylor [00:02:03]
And [00:02:03]
Otis Redding [00:02:04]
Soul music where frustrations are washed by drums [00:02:05]
Nina [00:02:08]
And [00:02:09]
Miriam [00:02:09]
Congo Mongo Beat me senseless bongo Tonto [00:02:10]
Flash through dream worlds of STP and LSD [00:02:17]
Speed kills and sometimes musics call is frustrated [00:02:21]
And the black man is confused [00:02:25]
Our speed is our life pace much too fast not good [00:02:27]
I beg you to escape and live and hear all of the real [00:02:31]
Until a call comes for you to cry elsewhere [00:02:36]
We must all cry but tell me [00:02:39]
Must our tears be white[00:02:42]
