Buffalo Springfield - Mr. Soul

[Tuesday Afternoon]

Oh, hello Mr. Soul, I dropped by to pick up a reason
For the thought that I caught that my head is the event of the season
Why in crowds just a trace of my face could seem so pleasin'
I'll cop out to the change, but a stranger is putting the tease on.

I was down on a frown when the messenger brought me a letter
I was raised by the praise of a fan who said I upset her
Any girl in the world could have easily known me better
She said, You're strange, but don't change, and I let her.

In a while will the smile on my face turn to plaster?
Stick around while the clown who is sick does the trick of disaster
For the race of my head and my face is moving much faster
Is it strange I should change? I don't know, why don't you ask her?

3. Neil Young predicted bu$h:

Stick around while the clown who is sick
Does the trick of disaster.

This so inspired John Lennon that he was able to foresee the downfall of Mao Tse-Tung about a year later:

But if you go carryin' pictures of Chairman Mao
Y'aint gonna make it with anyone anyhao.

And it's NO coincidence that both these prophets were known to employ Gibson P-90 pickups in their guitars!
