Cosmic Wheels
Album - 1973 - Debaser id 70122

God is playing marbles
With his planets and his stars
Creating havoc through my life
Through his influence on Mars
That's why I'm stumbling down the highway
On my boots of steel
I should be rolling down the skyway
On my cosmic wheels

In the present position of the planets
It's impossible for me to say
Just when I'll find my course again
With these boulders in my way
I should be rolling down the skyway
On my cosmic wheels
Instead of stumbling down this highway
On my boots of steel
I should be rolling down the skyway
On my cosmic wheels

From the album sutras

Sleep now sleep
And so fade sorrow
Sleep beloved sleep
Sleep now sleep
Afar tomorrow
Sleep beloved sleep
You are home this night
Home of winter
Your home of autumn
Summer and spring
You are home this night
Lasting home
Eternal home
Your eternal home
Sleep of seven lights upon you
Sleep of seven joys
Sleep of seven slumbers on you
In your easy poise
You are home this night
Home of stillness
Your home of spirit
Being and bliss
You are home this night
Abiding home
Forever home
Your forever home

Henna ma honey
You are the one
Ma silver moon lady
She like a choir boy
Hair all a-cloudy
And flying and real

A halo a sky gold
A moon on the water
A scuddy go cloud
Aroundy the sky bowl
Henna ma honey
You are the one

My copper go-go-girl
She like a show girl
Delightful Dolores
Ma Anna Belinda
Maggie yer reggae
You move me along

My copper go-go-girl
She like a show girl
Delightful Dolores
Ma Anna Belinda
Maggie yer reggae
You move me along

The Intergalactic Laxative
Words & Music by: Donovan Leitch - 1973

Album: Cosmic Wheels - 1973


I was impressed like everyone,
When man began to fly,
Out of earthly regions,
To planets in the sky.
With total media coverage,
We watched the heros land,
As ceremoniously
They disturbed the cosmic sand.

In awe with admiration,
We listened to the talk.
Such pride felt they,
Such joy to be
Upon the moon to walk.
My romantic vision shattered,
When it was explained to me,
Spacemen wear old diapers
In which they shit and pee.

Oh, the intergalactic laxative,
Will get you from here to there.
Relieve you and believe me,
Without a worry or care.
If shitting is your problem,
When you're out there in the stars,
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to Mars.

They don't partake like you and I,
Of beefy burger mush.
Their food is specially prepared
To dissolve into slush.
Absorbed by multi-fibers
In the super diaper suit,
Otherwise the slush would trickle
Down inside the boot.

Oh, the intergalactic laxative,
Will get you from here to there.
Relieve you and believe me,
Without a worry or care.
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars,
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to Mars.

You may well ask now what becomes
Of liquid they consume.
A pipe is led from penis head
To a unit in the room.
The water is recirculated,
Filtered for re-use.
In case of anti-gravity -
Pee gets on the loose.

Oh, the intergalactic laxative,
Will get you from here to there.
Relieve you and believe me,
Without a worry or care.
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars,
Oh, the intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to Mars.

Wherever man has conquered,
On the quest for frontiers new,
(Da da da da)
I'm glad that he's always had to do
The number one and two.
It makes it all so ordinary,
Just like you and me,
To know the greatest heroes,
They had to shit and pee.

The intergalactic laxative
Will get you from here to there,
For cosmic constipation
There's none that can compare.
If shitting is your problem
When you're out there in the stars,
Oh, the intergalactic laxative,
The intergalactic laxative,
The intergalactic laxative,
Will get you from here to Mars.

Can't get the shake together with the rock
Movin' her body before she can talk
People say you get nowhere till you walk
But you feel and you hurt and you love
Yes you feel and you hurt and you love

You got the legs to strut it on down
Parade your pretty self in the town
Won't be too long now and you'll get around
For to feel and to hurt and to love
For to feel and to hurt and to love

Don't let appearances fool you
Life's not what the rule book tells
Don't let appearances fool you
Feel the vibes as well
Feel the vibes as well

Now you're a woman, you must use it
Well
Shakin' your pills at the wedding bell
People say you get nowhere till you
Smell
But you feel and you hurt and you love
You do feel and do hurt you do love
