HOUSE ANNOUNCER

All right, wait a second.
We have a long show, we have a hell of a show for you. A beautiful thing.
All right, now look, look, we've...we've seen a lot of things happened in the city, and everything's turned around. Everything's beautiful. Nobody thought we'd be able to bring the Doors here, and we did.
But we've got a couple of thi... Wait a second man! Look, we've just got a couple of little things that we've gotta tell you about. The fire-marshal is not gonna let this show go on, and I just had a long meeting with him, and man, this is no joke, you either gotta sit down, and you gotta go back to your seats, you gotta make isles, and that's it man. You gotta move back.
Hey look! Hey look!
Wait a second, hold on! Let's have a little help, man. Come on, everybody go back to their seats. People are gonna get hurt up here, they're gonna pass out. Now we don't want that man, and the Doors don't want that either.
Ladies and gentlemen, the Doors!

 Now hold it, we've gotta tune up.
Hey Philadelphia!
Do you feel all right?

WHO DO YOU LOVE

Yeeeah
Yeeeah
Yeeeah
Yeeeah

 I walked 47 miles on barbed-wire,
Cobra-snake for a necktie.
Built a house by the roadside,
Made of rattlesnake hide.

 Brand new chimney up on top,
Made out of human skulls.
Come on baby take a walk with me,
Tell me who do you love?

 Who do you love, now?
Who do you love, now?
Who do you love, babe?
I say: Who now, who do you love?

 Tombstone head and a graveyard mind,
Just 22 and I don't mind dying.
Rode around the town with a rattlesnake whip,
Come on baby don't give me no lip.

 Who do you love, now?
Who do you love?
Who do you love, child?
I said: Who, baby, who do you love?

 Night is dark, the sky was blue,
Down the alley the ice wagon flew.
Hit a bump, somebody screamed,
Should'a heard just what I seen.

 Do you love me, babe?
Do you love her, yeah
Do you love me, babe?
Do you love it, yeah
Yeeeeeah

 Well, who, baby, who do you love?

 Love, love, love me babe.
Love, love, love me darling.

 We're gonna have some fun tonight, right?
All right, all right.

LOVE HIDES

Yeah

 Love hides in the strangest places.
Love hides in familiar faces.
Love comes when you least expect it.
Love hides in narrow corners.

Love hides inside the rainbow.
Love hides in molecular structures.
Love is the answer.

 Cancel my subscription to the Resurrection
Send my credentials to the House of Detention
I got some friends inside

 The face in the mirror won't stop
The girl in the window won't drop
A feast of friends
"Alive!" she cried
Waitin' for me
Outside!

 Before I sink
Into the big sleep
I want to hear
I want to hear
The scream of the butterfly

 Come back, baby
Back into my arms
We're gettin' tired of hangin' around
Waitin' around with our heads to the ground

 I hear a very gentle sound
Very near yet very far
Very soft and very clear
Come today, come today

 What have they done to the earth?
What have they done to our fair sister?
Ravaged and plundered, ripped her and bit her
Stuck her with knives in the side of the dawn
And tied her with fences and dragged her down

 I hear a very gentle sound
With your ear down to the ground

 SHUT UP!
Now is that any way to behave at a rock'n'roll concert?
You don't wanna hear that for the next half hour, do you?
All right, come on, come on, come on
Damn, give...give the singer some, man!
All right!

 We want the world and we want it...
NOW!

 Persian night, babe!
See the light, babe!
Save us, babe!
Jesus!
Save us, babe!

 Well, that's New York for you.
The only people that rush the stage or dies, you know.

 So when the music's over
When the music's over, yeah
When the music's over
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights
Turn out the lights

 When the music is your special friend
Dance on fire as it intends
Music is your only friend

LIONS IN THE STREET

Lions in the street and roaming
Dogs in heat, rabid, foaming
A beast caged in the heart of a city
The body of his mother
Rotting in the summer ground.
He fled the town.

 He went down South and crossed the border
Left the chaos and disorder
Back there over his shoulder.

 One morning he awoke in a green hotel
With a strange creature groaning beside him.
Sweat oozed from its shiny skin.

 Is everybody in?
The ceremony is about to begin.

WAKE UP

Wake up!
You can't remember where it was.
Had this dream stopped?

 The snake was pale gold
Glazed & shrunken.
We were afraid to touch it.
The sheets were hot dead prisons.

 And she was beside me.
Old, she's numb.
Her dark, red hair,
The white soft skin.

 Now, run to the mirror in the bathroom,
Look!
She's coming in here
I can't live thru each slow century of her moving.
I let my cheek slide down
The cool smooth tile
Feel the good cold stinging blood
The smooth hissing snakes of rain...

A LITTLE GAME

Once I had a little game
I liked to crawl back in my brain
I think you know the game I mean
I mean the game called 'go insane'

 Now you should try this little game
Just close your eyes forget your name
Forget the world, forget the people
And we'll erect a different steeple.

 This little game is fun to do.
Just close your eyes, no way to lose.
And I'm right here, I'm going too.
Release control, we're breaking through.

THE HILL DWELLERS

Way back deep into the brain
Way back past the realm of pain
Back where there's never any rain.

 And the rain falls gently on the town,
And over the heads of all of us.
And in the labyrinth of streams
Beneath, quiet unearthly presence of
Nervous hill dwellers in the gentle hills around,
Reptiles abounding
Fossils, caves, cool air heights.

 Each house repeats a mold
Windows rolled
A beast car locked in against morning.
All now sleeping
Rugs silent, mirrors vacant,
Dust blind under the beds of lawful couples
Wound in sheets.
And daughters, smug
With semen eyes in their nipples

 Wait
There's been a slaughter here!

NOT TO TOUCH THE EARTH

(Don't stop to speak or look around
Your gloves & fan are on the ground
We're getting out of town
We're going on the run
And you're the one I want to come)

 Not to touch the earth
Not to see the sun
Nothing left to do, but
Run, run, run
Let's run
Let's run

 House upon the hill
Moon is lying still
Shadows of the trees
Witnessing the wild breeze
C'mon baby run with me
Let's run

 Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run

 The mansion is warm, at the top of the hill
Rich are the rooms and the comforts there
Red are the arms of luxuriant chairs
And you won't know a thing till you get inside

 Dead president's corpse in the driver's car
The engine runs on glue and tar
C'mon along, not going very far
To the East to meet the Czar.

 Run with me
Run with me
Run with me
Let's run

 Some outlaws lived by the side of a lake
The minister's daughter's in love with the snake
Who lives in a well by the side of the road
Wake up, girl! We're almost home, yeah!

 Sun, sun, sun
Burn, burn, burn
Moon, moon, moon
I will get you
Soon!
Soon!
Soon!

 I am the Lizard King
I can do anything

NAMES OF THE KINGDOM

We came down
The rivers & highways
We came down from
Forests & falls

 We came down from
Carson & Springfield
We came down from
Phoenix enthralled

 & I can tell you
The names of the Kindom
I can tell you
The things that you know
Listening for a fistful of silence
Climbing valleys into the shade

THE PALACE OF EXILE

For seven years I dwelt
In the loose palace of exile,
Playing strange games
With the girls of the island.

 Now I have come again
To the land of the fair, & the strong, & the wise.

 Brothers & sisters of the pale forest
Children of Night
Who among you will run with the hunt?

 Now Night arrives with her purple legion.
Retire now to your tents & to your dreams.
Tomorrow we enter the town of my birth.
I want to be ready.

 The Doors! The Doors!
We're out of time, thank you very much. We're out of time.

 All right, we've got time for one more, let's do it one more time.

SOUL KITCHEN

Well, the clock says it's time to close now
I guess we'd better go now
But I'd really like to stay here all night
The cars crawl past all stuffed with eyes
Street lights share 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, wander baby
Stumblin' in the neon...

 Well, 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 babe
Stumblin' in the neon groves, yeah!
Wow!

Speak in secret alphabets
I light another cigarette
Learn to forget, learn to forget

Warm my mind near your gentle stove

Stumblin' in the neon, oh yeah!

Really wanna to stay here
All night, all night, all night

All right, all right.
Thank you, thank you very much!

 Thank you very much for coming, good night.
All you people here tonight can go down stairs and obtain the rock fans free of charge. See the head(?) shops, the light show and take the trip, no charge at all. Just go down there, as you walk out the door, go down, the escalators. So we'll see you all downstairs. Thank you very much.

LIGHT MY FIRE
(including GRAVEYARD POEM)

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

 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

 Aouh, come on!
Come on, babe!

 Yeah! Come on!
Come on!

 Woaouh! Yeah!

 It was the greatest night of my life.
Although I still had not found a wife
I had my friends
Right there beside me.
We were close together.
We tripped the wall, we scaled the graveyard
Ancient shapes were all around us.
The wet dew felt fresh beside the fog.
Two made love in an ancient spot
One chased a rabbit into the dark
A girl got drunk and balled the dead
And I gave empty sermons to my head.
Cemetary, cool and quiet
Hate to leave your sacred lay
Dread the milky coming of the day.

 Ah, ah, ah, ah!
Ah, ah, ah, ah!
Ah, ah, ah, ah!

 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

 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

TEXAS RADIO AND THE BIG BEAT

I wanna tell you about Texas Radio and the Big Beat
Comes out of the Virginia swamps
Cool and slow with a back beat
Narrow and hard to master

 Some call it heavenly in it's brilliance
Others, mean and ruthful of the Western dream
I love the friends I have gathered together on this thin raft
We've constructed pyramids in honor of our escaping
This is the land where the Pharaoh died

 Children
The river contains specimens
The voices of singing women
Call us on the far shore

 And they are saying
"Forget the Night
live with us in Forests of azure"
Meager food for souls forgot

 I tell you this;
No eternal reward will
Forgive us now for
Wasting the dawn

 One morning you awoke
And the strange sun
And opening your door...

 Let's swim to the moon, ah ha
Let's climb through the tide
Penetrate the evenin' that the
City sleeps to hide

 Let's swim out tonight, love
It's our turn to try
Parked beside the ocean
On our moonlight drive

 Let's swim to the moon
Let's climb through the tide
You reach your hand to hold me
But I can't be your guide

 Easy, I to love you
As I watch you glide
Falling through wet forests
On our moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonlight drive

 Come on, baby, gonna take a little ride
Goin' down by the ocean side
Get real close
Get real tight
Baby gonna drown tonight
Goin' down, down, down, down
Goin' down
Goin' down, way down
Down, down, down, down, down
Down, baby low
Children of the caves will let the
Secret fires glow

 When the still sea conspires an armor
And her sullen and aborted
Currents breed tiny monsters,
True sailing is dead.

 Awkward instant
And the first animal is jettisoned,
Legs furiously pumping
Their stiff green gallop,
And head bob up
Poise
Delicate
Pause
Consent
In mute nostril agony
Carefully refined
And sealed over.

 Easy, to love you
As I watch you glide
Yeah, we're falling through wet forests
On our moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonlight drive
Moonlight drive

 Thank you, thank you!

Ah, ladies and gentlemen, I don't know if you realize it, but tonight you¡¯re in for a special treat. No, no, no, not that, not that! You only get that treat on full moons. Besides, I know there¡¯s a lot of young people here, and I would want anybody to...
Last time it happened, grown men where weeping. Policemen where turning in their badges. Oh, I get, I get, everyone was intimidated tonight by all the security precautions, oh. Well, just remember their motto is «protect and serve»!

Close to you baby like a siamese twin,
Close to you baby like I'm feeling all right.

Well, close to you baby,
Close to you baby,

Close to you baby close as I can get,
Close to you baby like water is wet.

Close to you baby.
Don't know what to say or do.

Close to you in New York City,
I love you so much, woman, you know it's a pity.

UNKNOWN SOLDIER

Wait until the war is over
And we're both a little older
Unknown soldier

 Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Unborn living, living, dead
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

 And it's all over
For the unknown soldier
It's all over
For the unknown soldier, ah ha

 Comp'nee
Halt
Preeee-zent!
Arms!

 Make a grave for the unknown soldier
Nestled in your hollow shoulder
The unknown soldier

 Breakfast where the news is read
Television children fed
Bullet strikes the helmet's head

 And, it's all over
The war is over
It's all over
The war is over
All over
All over, baby
All over, yeah
All over, baby
It's all over
The war is over
All over, baby

 The war is over!

THE END

Come on, turn the lights down. Turn ¡®em way down. Hey, mister light-man! You gotta turn those lights way down, man. Hey, I¡¯m not kidding, you gotta turn the lights down. Come on!
Ah, what a weekend!

 This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend, the end
Of our elaborate plans, the end
Of everything 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

 Come on baby!

 We were in this house
And there was a sound like
Silverware being dropped on linoleum
And then somebody ran through the room and they said:
«Have you seen the accident outside?»
And everybody said:
«Hey man, have you seen the accident outside?»

 Have you seen the accident outside?
Seven people took a ride
Six bachelors and their bride
Seven people took a ride

 Don't let me die in an automobile
I wanna lie in an open field
Want the snakes to suck my skin
Want the worms to be my friends
Want the birds to eat my eyes
As here I lie
The lords fly by

 Ode to a grasshopper
I think I'll open a little shop
A little place where they sell things
And I think I'll call it "Grasshopper"

 I have a big green grasshopper out there
Have you seen my grasshopper, mama?
Looking real good...
Oh oh, I blew it, it's a moth
That's alright, he ain't got long to go,
So we'll forgive him

 Ensenada the dog crucifix
The dead seal
Ghosts of the dead car's son
Stop the car
I'm getting out
I can't take it
Hey lookout there's somebody coming
And there's nothing you can do about it

 The killer awoke before dawn
He put his boots on
He took a face from the ancient gallery
And he...
He walked on down the hall, babe
Came to a door, he looked inside
"Father?"-"Yes, son?"-"I want to kill you",
Mother, I want to..."

 Fuck you, mama! All night long!
Gonna love you, baby, all night, yeah!

 Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Come on, baby, take a chance with us
Meet me at the back of the blue bus
Meet me at the back of the blue bus
Still now
Blue rock
Oh now
Blue bus
Still now
Blue rock, gonna
Uuh, come on!

 Wow! Wow! Kill! Wow!
Kill! Kill! Kill!
Kill! Kill!

 This is the end, beautiful friend
This is the end, my only friend
Hurts to set you free
But you'll never follow me
The end of laughter and soft lies
The end of night we tried to die
This is the end
