In the hall of Saturn’s queen
Is where I found the stardust ring
She turned to me and said
Don't you know you're much too small
I could not tell up from down
A dark sky above made an awful sound
The king was poor and wore a rusted crown
All the stars above were falling down
The universe is a place that's much too small
For us to even know at all
Forever flying through outer space
There is no such thing as time or place
The lights were dim and the air was hot
Everything felt awful odd
I raised my hands up to the sky
Even though I knew there was no God
She said look around and lose your self
Stop living in a personal hell
A bell rang and I knew it was time (ringing bell sound effect here)
To wash my mind of the dirt and grime
The universe is a place that's much too small
For us to even know at all
We can't understand it so far
Even though it's exactly what we are
Time for us to quit giving in
To all the crazy and wicked men
Love is the law love under will
Time to stop staring from life’s window sill
We are free we are made of starz
Lets get out of these insect jars
They cant contain that which is pure
Become what you are not what you were
The universe is a place that's much too small
For us to even know at all
Forever flying through outer space
There is no such thing as time or place

I know I dream about her all day
I think about her with her clothes off
I'm ridin' 'round with my system pumpin' LSD
I look for ways to say, "I love you"
But I ain't into makin' love songs
Baby, I'm just rappin' to this LSD
She ain't a stranger to the city life
I introduce her to this hippy life
We make love under pretty lights, LSD (Acid)
I get a feelin' it's a trippy night
Them other drugs just don't fit me right
Girl, I really fuckin' want love, sex, dream
Another quarter to the face system
Make no mistakes, it's all a leap of faith for love
It takes a place in feelin' that you crave doin' love, sex, dreams

It was a night in July, I think six years ago
Why did I eat the acid? I don't know
I wasn't thinking and I wasn't scared
Why did I eat the acid? I wasn't prepared
The last time I did acid I went insane
I was hanging with some friends just getting loaded
When all of a sudden my mind exploded
I had a flash that I was gay and I got paranoid
I was sitting on the floor listening to Pink Floyd
The last time I did acid I went insane
And I was drawing crazy pictures and before I was done
The pictures started pulsing like an alien lung
And I said "oh my god this is just begun"
And it was twelve more hours before I was done
We were up on the rooftop and I'll tell you the truth
I was convinced I'd already fallen off of the roof
And these weird metal things rolling around in outta space
Were teleporting me from place to place
The last time I did acid I went insane
So we ran back downstairs where it was better to be
But I was trapped in spiral staircase infinity
And when we got to the door I couldn't go inside
Cos it was the gates of heaven and I had died
The last time I did acid I went insane
And this kid named Graham he punched a cat in the head
He could read my thoughts, that's what he said
And he described what it was like but I didn't believe it
Like lifting a rug and seeing stars beneath it
Ooo-ooo
And the first rule of tripping was
Don't be with people you don't trust
The second rule of LSD
The rooftop is not a good place to be
The third rule is to be prepared
The fourth rule is to not get scared
The fifth rule is to stay serene
Turn off your mind and float downstream
The sixth rule's to have a good friend at hand
The seventh, I hope that you understand
Is not to look to deep into your soul
Or you might find a hideous, hopeless hole
Of hatred, hunger, infinite, idiot
Mindless, meaningless, nothingness, nothingness
Nothingness, nothingness, nothingness, nothingness
Nothingness, nothingness, nothingness, nothingness
Nothingness
And that's what I did
And every aspect of life that I selected
Was instantly and brutally dissected
I saw the horrible emptiness within
The reasons behind everything
And it was at that moment that I went insane
Cos I figured why bother doing anything again
I didn't understand my thoughts revealing themselves to be
The truth behind everything I'd ever wanted and believed
Revealed itself to be
Unwinding
I Stood up
I brushed
My head
I turned
To my right
All in my eye
And I said
There are things which we feel to be so terrifically true
That what were all but madness
For any good man in his own proper character
To utter or even hint of them
I've just discovered the meaning of life
I've just discovered the meaning of life
I've just discovered the meaning of life
I've just discovered the meaning of life

Life Explained by Wm. Baldwin June 2014
You knew the paths the witches took,
the goblins and the beasties.
Heard the howls of quiet mouths,
saw signs of devil’s feastings.
But those were in the younger days
and now the street’s grown quiet.
You want to leap the puddle.
The sky reflects Don’t try it.
