The End
Break On Through
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
You know the day destroys the night,
Night divides the day;
Tried to run,
Tried to hide.
Break on though to the other side,
Break on though to the other side,
Break on though to the other side.
We chased our pleasures here,
Dug our treasures there,
Can you still recall
The time we cried?
Break on through to the other side,
Break on through to the other side,
Break on through to the other side.
Ev'rybody loves my baby.
Ev'rybody loves my baby.
She gets, she gets,
She gets, she gets.
I found an island in your arms,
A country in your eyes,
Arms that chain,
Eyes that lie.
Break on through to the other side,
Break on through to the other side,
Break on through to the other side.
Made a scene from week to week,
Day to day, hour to hour,
The gate is straight,
Deep and wide.
Break on trough to the other side,
Break on trough to the other side,
Break on trough to the other side.
Break on through, break on through,
Break on through, break on through,
Break, break,
Break, break,
Break.
Soul Kitchen
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
Well, the clock says it's time to close, now,
I guess I'd better go now,
I'd really like to stay here all night.
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes,
Street lights shed their hollow glow;
Your brain seems bruised with numb surprise.
Still one place to go,
Still one place to go.
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen,
Warm my mind near your gentle stove,
Turn me out and I'll wander, baby,
Stumbling in the neon groves.
Your fingers weave quick minarets,
Speak in secret alphabets
I light another cigarette,
Learn to forget, learn to forget,
Learn to forget, learn to forget.
Let me sleep all night in your soul kitchen,
Warm my mind near your gentle stove,
Turn me out and I'll wander, baby,
Stumbling the neon groves.
Well, the clock says it's time to close, now,
I guess I'd better go now, I know O have to go now,
I really want to stay here all night,
All night,
All night.
The Cristal Ship
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
Before you slip into unconsciousness,
I'd like to have another kiss,
Another flashing chance at bliss,
Another kiss,
Another kiss.
The days are bright and filled with pain,
Enclose me in your gentle rain,
The time you ran was too insane,
We'll meet again,
We'll meet again.
Oh tell me where your freedom lies,
The streets are fields that never die,
Deliver me from reasons why
You'd rather cry,
I' rather fly.
The crystal ship is being filled,
A thousand girls, a thousand thrills,
A million ways to spend your time;
When we get back,
I'll drop a line.
Twentieth Century Fox
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
Well, she's fashionably lean,
And she's fashionably late,
She'll never rank a scene,
She'll never break a date;
But she's no drag,
Just watch the way she walks.
She's a twentieth century fox,
She's a twentieth century fox.
No tears, no fears,
No ruined years.
No clocks.
She's a twentieth century fox.
She's the queen of cool,
And she's the lady who waits,
Since her mind left school,
It never hesitates;
She won't waste time
On elementary talk.
'Cause she's a twentieth century fox
She's a twentieth century fox.
Got the world locked up
Inside a plastic box.
She's a twentieth century fox, yeah,
Twentieth century fox.
Twentieth century fox, oh year!
She's a Twentieth century fox!
Alabama Song
Music by Kurt Weill.
Words by Bortoit Breacht.
1965-1971.
Well show me the way to the next whisky bar,
Oh don't ask why, oh don't ask why,
Show me the way to the next whisky bar,
Oh, don't ask why, oh don't ask why.
For if we don't find the next whisky bar,
I tell you we must die, I tell you we must die.
I tell you, I tell you, I tell you we must die.
Oh moon of Alabama, we now must say goodbye,
We'll love our good old mama,
I must have whisky, oh, you know why.
Oh moon of Alabama, we now must say goodbye,
We lost our good old mama,
And must have whisky, oh, you know why.
Well show me the way to the next little girl,
Oh don't ask why, oh don't ask why.
Show me the way to the next little girl,
Oh don't ask why, oh don't ask why.
For if we don't find the next little girl,
I tell you we must die, I tell you must die,
I tell you, I tell you, I tell you we must die.
Oh moon of Alabama, we now must say goodbye,
We lost our good old mama,
And must have whisky, oh, you know why.
Light My Fire
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
You know that it would be untrue,
You know that I would be a liar,
If I was to say to you,
Girl we couldn't get much higher.
Come on, baby, light my fire,
Come on, baby, light my fire,
Try to set the night on fire.
The time to hesitate is through,
No time to wallow in the mire,
Try now we can only lose,
And our love become a funeral pyre.
Come on, baby, light my fire,
Come on, baby, light my fire,
Try to set the night on fire.
The time to hesitate is through,
No time to wallow in the mire,
Try now we can only lose,
And our love become a funeral pyre.
Come on, baby, light my fire,
Come on, baby, light my fire,
Try to set the night on fire.
Try to set the night on fire.
Try to set the night on fire.
Try to set the night on fire.
Back Door Man
The Doors / 1965-1971.
Words and Music by Willie Dixon.
Oh yeah oh man, I'm a back door man
I'm a back door man,
The men don't know what your little girls understand.
And all your people, they're trying to sleep,
I'm out to make her with my midnight creep,
Yeah, 'cause I'm a back door man.
The men don't know what your little girls understand.
You men eat your dinner, eat your pork and beans,
I eat more chicken any man ever seen.
Yeah yeah, I'm a back door man,
The men don't know what your little girls understand.
Well I'm a back door man, I'm a back door man.
Oh, baby I'm a back door man.
The men don't know what your little girls understand.
I Looked At You
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
I looked at you,
You looked at me,
I smiled at you,
You smiled at me.
And we're on our way,
No, we can't turn back, babe;
Yeah, we're on our way,
And we can't turn our back,
'cause it's too late,
Too late, too late.
And we're on our way,
No, we can't turn back, babe;
Yeah, we're on our way,
And we can't turn our back.
I walk with you,
You walk with me,
I talked to you,
You talked to me.
And we're on our way,
No, we can't turn back, babe;
Yeah, we're on our way,
And we can't turn our back,
'cause it's too late,
Too late, too late.
And we're on our way,
No, we can't turn back, babe;
Yeah, we're on our way,
And we can't turn our back,
'cause it's too late,
Too late, too late,
Too late, too late.
End Of The Night
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
Take the highway to the end of the night,
End of the night,
End of the night.
Take a journey to the bright midnight,
End of the night,
End of the night.
Realms of bliss,
Realms of light.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to the endless night.
End of the night,
End of the night,
End of the night,
End of the night.
Realms of bliss,
Realms of light.
Some are born to sweet delight,
Some are born to sweet delight.
Some are born to the endless night.
End of the night,
End of the night,
End of the night,
End of the night.
Take It As It Comes
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
Time to live,
Time to lie,
Time to laugh,
Time to die.
Take it easy, baby,
Take it as it comes.
Don't move too fast if you want your love to last,
You've been movin' much too fast.
Time to walk,
Time to run,
Time to aim your arrows
At the sun.
Take it easy, baby,
Take it as it comes.
Don't move too fast if you want your love to last,
you've been movin' much too fast.
Go real slow,
You'll like it more and more.
Take it as it comes,
Specialize in havin' fun.
Take it easy, baby,
Take it as it comes,
Don't move too fast if you want your love to last,
You've been movin' much too fast,
Movin' much too fast,
Movin' much too fast.
The End
The Doors / 1966.
The Doors.
This is the end, beautiful friend,
This is the end, my only friend,
The end of our elaborate plans,
The end of ev'rything that stands,
The end.
No safety or surprise,
The end,
I'll never look into your eyes again.
Can you picture what will be,
So limitless and free,
Desperately in need of some stranger's hand,
In a desperate land.
Lost in a Roman wildness of pain,
And all the children are insane,
All the children are insane;
Waiting for the summer rain,
There's danger on the edge of town,
Ride the king's highway.
Weird scenes inside the gold mine;
Ride the highway west, baby.
Ride the snake,
Ride the snake,
To the lake,
To the lake.
The ancient lake, baby,
The snake is long,
Seven miles,
Ride the snake.
He's old,
And his skin is cold,
The West is the best,
The West is the best.
Get here and we'll do the rest.
The blue bus is calling us,
The blue bus is calling us.
Driver, where are you taking us?
The killer awoke before dawn,
He put his boots on,
He tool a face from the ancient gallery;
And he walked on down the hall.
He went to the room where his sister lived,
And then he paid a visit to his brother,
And then he walked on down the hall.
And he came to a door,
And he looked inside;
"Father?"
"Yes, son?"
"I want to kill you.
Mother, I want to ..."
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
And meet me at the back of the blue bus.
Blue rah, round the ...
Do the, blue bus,
Do the ...
C'mon, yeah ...
Yeah, year,
Yeah, year,
Yeah, year.
This is the end, beautiful friend.
This is the end, my only friend,
The end.
It hurts to set you free,
But you'll never follow me.
The end of laughter and soft lies,
The end of nights we tried to die.
This is the end.
