5th dimension - blowing away

You ole fire, I'm mad with desire,
You're my favorite one.
You got me cookin' with the fever,
Got me runnin' for the sun.
Uh-huh, runnin' for the sun,
I feel so high, I feel like I may
Go blowin' away (go blowin' away) blowin' away.
Blow, blow, blowin' away (blow, blow, blowin' away).

My well meaner, my day fancy dreamer
Oh, what can it be?
Well, it's something like a power,
Like a hold, and it's holdin' me.
Uh-huh, and it's holdin' me,
I feel so high, I feel like I may
Go blowin' away (blowin' away) blowin' away.
Blow, blow, blowin' away (blow, blow, blowin' away)
Blow, blow, blowin' away.

My long laster, my soft-hearted master
Ain't been born and bred.
But he's standin' in my doorway in my mind
Up above my, up above, up above my head,
Up above my head, up above my head,
I feel so high, I feel like I may
Go blowin' away, blowin' away, (blowin' away)
Blowin' away, blowin' away, blowin' away
Blow, blow, blowin' away, (blowin' away, blow, blow,
Blowin away, blow, blow, blowin' away), blowin' away,
Blow, blow, blowin' away, blow, blow, blowin' away,
Blow, blow, blowin' away. . . .

When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars

This is the downing of the Age of Aquarius
The Age of Aquarius
Aquarius! Aquarius!

Sympathy and trust abounding
No more falsehoods or derisions
Golden living dreams of visions
Mystic crystal revelation
And the mind's true liberation
Aquarius! Aquarius!

5th dimension - never my love

You asked me if
There'll come a time when I grow tired of you.
Never my love,
Never my love.

You wonder if
This heart of mine will lose it's desire for you.
Never my love (never my love),
Never my love.

What makes you think love will end,
When you know that my whole life depends
On you.

(Never my love.)
(Never my love.)

You say you fear
I'll change my mind and I won't require your youth.
Never my love,
No, never, never my love.

Now how can you think love will end,
When I've asked you to spend your whole life
With me (with me).

(Never my love.) 5x

I'll leave you never my love.
Oh, believe me, baby.
I want you forever and ever my love.
I want to be...

If things go wrong we'll still get along somehow,
living and growing together.

Add on a woman and then you have two.

Add on a child and what have you got?
You've got more than three.
You've got what they call a family.

5th dimension - california soul

Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear
But you can't forget
From sundown to sunset
It's all in the air
You hear it everywhere
No matter what you do
It's gonna get a hold on your
It's California soul, California soul

They say the sun comes up every morning
And if you listen carefully
The winds that ride on the high time
Whistle in melody
And so the people started to sing
And that's how the surf gave birth untold
It's California soul California soul

When you hear the beat
You wanna pat your feet
And you've got to move cause
It's really such a groove
Puts a brand new thing in your mind
And you can't go wrong
Cause you're happy all day long
It's California soul, California soul

They had the melody and the beat
But it still doesn't seem complete
Until they saw two lovers kissin
They knew just what was missin
So happy they were rockin and reelin
Because that added that lovin feeling
To California soul, California soul
Like a sound you hear
That lingers in your ear

5th dimension - one less bell to answer

One less bell to answer
One less egg to fry
One less man to pick up after
I should be happy
But all I do is cry
(Cry, cry, no more laughter) I should be happy
(Oh, why did he go)
Since he left my life's so empty
Though I try to forget it just can't be done
Each time the doorbell rings I still run
I don't know how in the world
To stop thinking of him
'Cause I still love him so
I spend each day the way I start out
Crying my heart out
One less man to pick up after
No more laughter, no more love
Since he went away (he went away)
(One less bell to answer) Why did he leave me
(Why, why, why did he leave)
(One less bell to answer) Now I've got one less egg to fry
One less egg to fry
(Why, why, why did he leave) And all I do is cry
(One less bell to answer) Because a man told me goodbye
(Why, why, why did he leave)
(One less bell to answer) Somebody tell me please
Where did he go, why did he go
(Why, why, why did he leave) How could he leave me

5th dimension - carpet man

When you see some puddles on the ground
You lay down so she don't have to walk around
You think that will protect her from the rain
But you'll never ever stop the pain
She walks all over you
You know she can, she knows she can
You're a carpet man, you're a carpet man

You take such care to keep that girl's feet clean
Like she's some kind of figurine
The world's so far below her it's not her scene
And so she uses you to stand between
She walks all over you
You know she can, she knows she can
You're a carpet man, you're a carpet man

I would think you'd get tired of hurtin'
Every now and then
It's no good down there that's for certain
And carpets do get thin
And that's when they have to be thrown away
That's what she'll say to herself some sunny day
And she'll say come to my wedding and of course you do
And then the groom and her will have a dance on you
She walks all over you
You know she can, she knows she can
You're a carpet man, you're a carpet man

5th dimension - if i could reach you

Oh no, don't go It's hours till dawn
And there's no one who'd rather be with you
I know you know other girls like me
I let you take my love
Knowing you don't love me

But if I could reach you some way
If i knew the magic it would take
To love you good enough on the outside
And make you feel it on the inside
Maybe I could make you stay

If I could reach you

The dark is getting light
And you're dressed to go
And never said a word about tomorrow

But if I could reach you some way
If I knew the magic it would take
To love you good enough on the outside
And make you feel it on the inside
Maybe I could make you stay

5th dimension - last night i didn t get to sleep at all

LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL, NO, NO
I LAYED, WAKED AND WATCHED UNTIL THE MORNING LIGHT
WASHED AWAY THE DARKNESS OF THE LONELY NIGHT

LAST NIGHT I GOT TO THINK MAYBE I SHOULD CALL YOU UP
AND JUST FORGET MY FOOLISH PRIDE
I HEARD YOUR NUMBER RINGING
I WERE COLD INSIDE
LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL

I KNOW IT'S NOT MY FAULT I DID MY BEST
GOD KNOWS THIS HEART OF MINE COULD USE A REST

WHAT MORE AND MORE I FIND THE DREAMS I LEFT BEHIND
ARE SOMEHOW TOO REAL TO REPLACE

LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL
THE SLEEP UNTIL I TOOK WAS JUST A WASTE OF TIME
I COULDN'T CLOSE MY EYES 'CAUSE YOU WERE ON MY MIND

LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL
DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP, NO I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL

WHAT MORE AND MORE I FIND THE DREAMS I LEFT BEHIND
ARE SOMEHOW TOO REAL TO REPLACE

LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL, NO, NO
THE SLEEP UNTIL I TOOK WAS JUST A WASTE OF TIME
I COULDN'T CLOSE MY EYES 'CAUSE YOU WERE ON MY MIND

LAST NIGHT I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL
NO I DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP, DIDN'T GET TO SLEEP AT ALL

5th dimension - living together growing together

Start with a man and you have one.
Add on a woman and then you have two.
Add on a child and what have you got?
You've got more than three.
You've got what they call a family.

(Chorus)
Living Together, Growing Together, just being together,
that's how it starts.
Three loving hearts all
pulling together, working together, just building together,
that makes you strong.
If things go wrong we'll still get along somehow,
living and growing together.

It just takes wood to build a house.
Fill it with people and you have a home.
Fill it with love and people take root.
It's just like a tree
where each branch becomes a family that's
Living Together, Growing Together, just being together,
that's how it starts.
Three loving hearts all
pulling together, working together, just building together,
that makes you strong.
If things go wrong we'll still get along somehow,
living and growing together.

(Chorus)
Living Together, Growing Together, just being together,
that's how it starts.
Three loving hearts all
pulling together, working together, just building together,
that makes you strong.
If things go wrong we'll still get along somehow,
living and growing
just like we're doing now, together.

5th dimension - paper cup

Here inside my paper cup
Everything is looking up
On one comes in, no one goes out
Nothin' to get hung up about
I'm free and it's so easy to get by
'Cause I don't try

In my paper cup
I have installed a shower stall
Across the hall
Running water and a den
It's looking just like home again
I'm free and I've installed refrigerated air
You'd have to look inside
Before you'd know that I was there
And everybody says I'm quite insane
And someday I'll be going down the drain
I know they're right
But I feel no pain

Here inside my paper cup
Everything is looking up
On one goes out, no one comes in
It's lookin just like home again
I'm free and it's so easy to get
The things I've always wanted
'Cause I don't really want 'em anymore
Living ain't so bad without a rudder
Life is kind a groovy in the gutter
If you know how, and I do
So if you'd like to come along
We'll sing a little paper song
About a lonely paper plate
Who couldn't find a paper mate
I'm free, yes, I'm free
And my life is looking up
From inside my paper cup
And I'm always looking up
From inside my paper cup

If you wanna see me do my thing
Pull my string

Satisfaction guaranteed

Pull my string
Puppet man, puppet man

Down by the grapevine
Drink my daddy's wine, get happy
Down by the grapevine
Drink my daddy's wine, get happy
Happy, oh sweet blindness, a little magic
A little kindness, oh sweet blindness
All over me, four leaves on a clover
I'm just a bit of a shade hungover
Come on baby do a slow float
You're a good lookin' riverboat
And ain't that sweet eyed blindness good to me

Down by the grapevine
Drink my daddy's wine, good mornin'
Down by the grapevine
Drink my daddy's wine, good mornin
Mornin', oh sweet blindness
A little magic, a little kindness
Oh sweet blindness all over me
Please don't tell my mother

Come on baby do a slow float
You're a good lookin' riverboat
And ain't that sweet eyed blindness good to me

(don't ask me cause i)
Ain't gonna tell you what i've been drinkin'
Ain't gonna tell you what i've been drinkin'
Ain't gonna tell you what i've been drinkin'

A little kindness oh sweet blindness all over m

Come on baby do a slow float
You're a good lookin' riverboat
And ain't that sweet eyed blindness good to me, good to me
And ain't that sweet eyed blindness good to me,
