The Air (Live At “Piknik” VPRO, 6/18/1970)

The air
Escaping from your mouth
The hair escaping from your nose
My heart
Escaping from the scraping
And the shaping of the draping

I'm awaking
In a T-shirt
In a Chevy
At the beach
And I'm freezing
And I'm wheezing
And I know
You were only teasing

I hit you
Then I beat you
Then I told you
That I love you
In my car
In a jar
In my car
In a jar

The air
Escaping from your pits
The hair escaping from my teeth
My hands
Are gripping
But they're slipping
And they're dripping
'Cause I'm tripping

I got busted (wasted)
Coming through customs (I'm so wasted)
With a suitcase (wasted)
Full of tapes (I'm so wasted)
It was special
Tape recording
And they grabbed me
While I was boarding

Yes, they grabbed me
Then they hit me
Then they told me
They don't like me
And I crashed
In my Nash
We can crash
In my Nash
We can crash
In my Nash

Look out now

Won't you please, hear my plea
