1967 LYRICS Last night I took a walk into the back of my mind Through the trash and the warning signs There was a party full of jokes and clich's I couldn't think of anything to say And so I slipped into the men's room there I saw my hair a way it's never been before I took the stairs from my head to my heart I didn't know they were so far apart The heart is like a little chapel somewhere The pretty lights and the empty chairs But I'm gonna bring a broom next time I'll sweep out all the broken strings I find She walks me down to my private train And lays me down in my sleeping car She keeps my elephant out of the rain And sees to the care of my vintage cars She is the blood of my life Without her I would starve Who you gonna run to? Who you gonna hide behind? Who you gonna turn to When there's nobody home but you? What's a father to do With all theses school-less injuns Running in circles around the wagons What's a father to do With all these monster debts Around my neck On a sad sun deck Oh, my children, the times are jaded The simple life is complicated Oh, my children Now if the dark of the night Arrives in the middle of the day I'm gonna say my prayer For sweetness and light Gonna fix myself a Coke And hope it's alright If the bat-winged beast sweep down For a feast on me I'm gonna pin my soul To a hot-air balloon Gonna make it pop And shoot me to the moon Now you've had another piece of my mind A cup of coffee and a slice of time If you'll excuse me I should say goodbye I gotta go now
That's a weird concept, bro... seems like id would be better for the world if a feller like Mr. Belew was more famous considering that he's such an absurdly positive, good hearted human being and what not. Could only do good.
I KNEW somebody would put this up eventually. I've been looking for it since I lost the cassette... about '06 or '07 maybe? That other version doesn't do justice to this one. THANK YOU!
Dennis Dineen You are so right. Keep the true musicians secretive/underground. I feel the same for independent labels, especially the early "punk" era. Popularity creates commercialism. The message and medium changes too much, too quickly. Always remember the "Starving artists". ♠️🎲
+Chico P. No. Thanks, mac, for showing me this great musician who has not been truly recognized for his artistry. It is because of my appreciation for Mac's musical view that I can find a great musician and human through him.
Kyle Togrul First of all, Adrian Belew has truly been recognized by all of the great musicians of his time lol. Look him up Mr. Togrul, Second of all stop pretending like I am not a disciple of Mac Demarco's Fan Club.

I've owned every format of this over the years; album, cassette. CD is my car as I write this. One of my all time favourites. Most other musicians would have made 4 songs out of this cut. a cup of coffee, and a slice of time ... Thanks for posting.

Well at least I own this album on cassette, and no one can take that from me!

Adrian Belew has been a really great guitarist and composer. Other people dont understsnd nuthin’ bout Adrian Belew. I’m sad. - john coolmam
Wow. What a wonderful trip.
Adrian Blew has multiple wonderful songs just so you All know!
Here is my favorite album! Multiple great songs just pop it and push play! Just like any other albums. Sorry CDs or however you listen now.
Pure brilliance.
Evocative, transportive and strikingly original.
Yet somehow, oddly familiar.
Heck of a musical achievement, I say.
reminds me of the beatles' day in the life
Some feels of feels.... Out of this world. Like literally i feel transported to like a previous life or early childhood (before i was 3)
Because it's a similar sound from King Crimson days. 🙌
@@rhythmtreble7311 He does sound like the beatles.
I rember buying this in 1987. Listened at 2:16 1000 times.
I get a real McCartneyish vibe offa this. Great song.
Elidoransgar Been told this song was sort of a tribute to The Beatles.
Elidoransgar Yep His Beatles song.
+CheshireCatband This is about the firsttime he had LSD and that night heard sgt peppers at a party his beatle song he wrote is Big Blue Sun influenced by Martha My Dear
Just going by what he said about this song
Still his Beatles song...I just gotta' listen to it, not read some interview. I do not know him personally...lol...don't need to....
Es increíble ver cómo la escuela Zappa fue diferente para Vai y Belew. Creo que Belew supo ver la esencia de Zappa: versatilidad.
es verdad. pero Flexable de Vai es un álbum zappezco y tiene cosas buenas.
Omegaman por la rola de the police?
One of my new favorites
1967 LYRICS
Last night
I took a walk into the back of my mind
Through the trash and the warning signs
There was a party full of jokes and clich's
I couldn't think of anything to say
And so I slipped into the men's room there
I saw my hair a way it's never been before
I took the stairs from my head to my heart
I didn't know they were so far apart
The heart is like a little chapel somewhere
The pretty lights and the empty chairs
But I'm gonna bring a broom next time
I'll sweep out all the broken strings I find
She walks me down to my private train
And lays me down in my sleeping car
She keeps my elephant out of the rain
And sees to the care of my vintage cars
She is the blood of my life
Without her I would starve
Who you gonna run to?
Who you gonna hide behind?
Who you gonna turn to
When there's nobody home but you?
What's a father to do
With all theses school-less injuns
Running in circles around the wagons
What's a father to do
With all these monster debts
Around my neck
On a sad sun deck
Oh, my children, the times are jaded
The simple life is complicated
Oh, my children
Now if the dark of the night
Arrives in the middle of the day
I'm gonna say my prayer
For sweetness and light
Gonna fix myself a Coke
And hope it's alright
If the bat-winged beast sweep down
For a feast on me
I'm gonna pin my soul
To a hot-air balloon
Gonna make it pop
And shoot me to the moon
Now you've had another piece of my mind
A cup of coffee and a slice of time
If you'll excuse me I should say goodbye
I gotta go now
I love that ending. "I gotta go now". End of song
Bye 👋
One of the Best Albums of All Time! ;)
Definitely an example of a song I wish I'd written. Brilliant. The man can do anything.
Is new for me, I love Adian music.
Belew is honestly awesome musician
This one in particular you can really hear and feel his love and admiration for The Beatles.
It would be fun to sit around a fire with good old friends and play and enjoy this song one more time!
Its a mini album.
ONLY 60,000 views. What a CRIME.
Thanks for uploading this. One of my favorite Belew songs.
Belew, te amo
That's a weird concept, bro... seems like id would be better for the world if a feller like Mr. Belew was more famous considering that he's such an absurdly positive, good hearted human being and what not. Could only do good.
Just so classic, I've barely tapped into the techniques I have learned from this man, and I've been at this a long time. #AdrianBelew
My kitty cat usually loves Adrian Belew.
i feel you
I KNEW somebody would put this up eventually. I've been looking for it since I lost the cassette... about '06 or '07 maybe? That other version doesn't do justice to this one. THANK YOU!
Thanks for posting. One of my all time faves.
Same as mine! Wonderfull! So many memories with this song!
Sooo good. I'm glad that not many people know of this kind of music, they don't deserve it.
+bjorn blasphemous I appreciate people like you so much

¡Qué chido! Es una gran canción. Belew siempre grande. Gracias por subirla.
I'm just in love with this...
Remember being in LA 1987. What's a father to do?
Legend for us weirdos,
All I want is find a nice woman who'd keep my elephant out of the rain
A man after my own elephant.
i used to have thos on CD. wtf! gotta get it again. amazong album as a whole
Gold
Simply Genius

martin your right
the bridge part thing between the first to versus and the next tune thing songs just like elos Mr radio
I'm not sure why but this song reminds me of he Bangles.
wow
Big eletric cat
FUCK YEAH, ADRIAN!!!
quite fab-fourish
cool
Fire beat bruh
Anyone here from matin poppoff ?
What do you call the sound at 3:50? Is that a chord? It's positively heavenly swoon.
That part is made on guitar synth, although it could easily be done with a couple of violins, too. Nice sound.
@ 3:48 sounds like another song that's just a shadow at the moment.

En su album "Mr Music Head".
Belew tocó con Zappa, Talking Heads, Bowie, King Crimson.
Sounds so much like the Beatles.
Also evokes Frank Zappa with frequent shifts in music and beat
:-)
jelaus us
Okay Brainiac- who do ya think "she" is in this song? Now fill in the blank with "GOD" and you'll hear the real song
meh
