Celebration of the Lizard...

I don't think there could be anyone more stoned than Jim Morrison. I know where is this coming from? One of songs is playing now, and it's one of his more offbeat songs. And when I listen to it, I can't help but wonder when was the last time this guy wasn't stoned? He is one of those people that sounds like he was born tripping on acid. I used think it was close to call who had a bigger drug problem between him and Jimi Henderix. But after listening to this song, there's no way you could ever convince me that it's Jimi. This is one those really weird songs where it sounds like he's singing poetry. Not to mention it's like such a weird title. And I'm sorry but none of it makes any sense. Not to mention the parts with the piano sound like he just banged down on the keyboard. Don't get me wrong there's a lot of Doors stuff that I really like. But this just sounds like carnival music gone horribly wrong. A lot times when I listen to those songs, it's hard not to think what the fuck is this guy thinking. You how sometimes with an artist like a painter, musician, writer, yadda yadda yadda, you want to know what was going through their head when they put that together. This is one instance where I don't want to be anywhere near wherever he was when he put this together. I could never imagine wanting to put my head in that type of trance. I think this song would actually be good for a stay away from drugs commercial. For some reason, the one with the fried egg I always thought was retarded. I'm sorry but I don't see how that ad could have convinced anyone to stay away from drugs. But maybe it's just me.
