supernaut
complete lyrics done by joel newberry


"practically every one of the top forty records being played on every radio station in the united states is a communication to the children to take a trip, to cop out, to groove.  the psychedelic jackets on the record albums have their own hidden symbols and messages as well as all the lyrics of all the top rock songs, and they all sing the same refrain:  it's fun to take a trip, put acid in your veins"
i want to reach out and touch the sky
i want to touch the sun but i don't want to fly
i'm gonna climb up every mountain on the moon
i've found a distant mountain waving it's phone
supernaut
supernaut
i've crossed the oceans, done every land
i found the project at the golden rainbow's end
i've been through magic and through life's reality
i've lived a thousand years, it never bothered me
bothered me
supernaut
bothered me
supernaut
"and they all sing the same refrain:  it's fun to take a trip, put acid in your veins"
oh, oh, oh, oh
"counting twenty-five seconds...twenty seconds and counting...t-minus fifteen seconds, guidance is internal...twelve...eleven...ten...nine...ignition sequence starts...six...five...four...three...two...one"
oh
got no religion, don't need no friends
got all i want, i've got no need to pretend
don't try to reach me 'cause i'll tear up your mind
i've seen the future and i'd leave it all behind
supernaut
supernaut
oh, oh, oh, oh
ooooooooooh
oh, oh, oh, oh
ooooooooooh
oh, oh, oh, oh
ooooooooooh
oh, oh, oh, oh
ooooooooooh...
