"The Doors" (1967)

 

Break On Through (To The Other Side)

 

 

You know the day destroys the night

Night divides the day

Tried to run

Tried to hide

Break on through to the other side

Break on through to the other side

Break on through to the other side, yeah

 

We chased our pleasures here

Dug our treasures there

But can you still recall

The time we cried

Break on through to the other side

Break on through to the other side

 

Yeah!

C'mon, yeah

 

Everybody loves my baby

Everybody loves my baby

She get(s high)

She get(s high)

She get(s high)

She get(s high)

 

I found an island in your arms

Country in your eyes

Arms that chain

Eyes that lie

Break on through to the other side

Break on through to the other side

Break on through, oww!

Oh, yeah!

 

Made the scene

Week to week

Day to day

Hour to hour

The gate is straight

Deep and wide

Break on through to the other side

Break on through to the other side

Break on through

Break on through

Break on through

Break on through

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

 

 

Soul Kitchen

 

 

Well, the clock says it's time to close now

I guess I'd better go now

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 and I'll wander baby

Stumblin' in the neon groves

 

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 baby

Stumblin' in the neon groves

 

Well the clock says it's time to close now

I know I have to go now

I really want to stay here

All night, all night, all night

 

 

The Crystal Ship

 

 

 

Before you slip into unconsciousness

I'd like to have another kiss

Another flashing chance at bliss

Another kiss, another kiss

 

The days are bright and filled with pain

Enclose me in your gentle rain

The time you ran was too insane

We'll meet again, we'll meet again

 

Oh tell me where your freedom lies

The streets are fields that never die

Deliver me from reasons why

You'd rather cry, I'd rather fly

 

The crystal ship is being filled

A thousand girls, a thousand thrills

A million ways to spend your time

When we get back, I'll drop a line

 

Twentieth Century Fox

 

 

Well, she's fashionably lean

And she's fashionably late

She'll never rank a scene

She'll never break a date

But she's no drag

Just watch the way she walks

 

She's a twentieth century fox

She's a twentieth century fox

No tears, no fears

No ruined years, no clocks

She's a twentieth century fox, oh yeah

 

She's the queen of cool

And she's the lady who waits

Since her mind left school

It never hesitates

She won't waste time

On elementary talk

 

'Cause she's a twentieth century fox

She's a twentieth century fox

Got the world locked up

Inside a plastic box

She's a twentieth century fox, oh yeah

Twentieth century fox, oh yeah

Twentieth century fox

She's a twentieth century fox

 

 

Alabama Song (Whisky Bar)

 

 

Well, show me the way

To the next whisky bar

Oh, don't ask why

Oh, don't ask why

 

Show me the way

To the next whisky bar

Oh, don't ask why

Oh, don't ask why

 

For if we don't find

The next whisky bar

I tell you we must die

I tell you we must die

I tell you, I tell you

I tell you we must die

 

Oh, moon of Alabama

We now must say goodbye

We've lost our good old mama

And must have whisky, oh, you know why

 

Oh, moon of Alabama

To the next little girl

For if we don't find

The next little girl

I tell you we must die

I tell you, I tell you

I tell you we must die

 

Oh, moon of Alabama

We now must say goodbye

We've lost our good old mama

And must have whisky, oh, you know why

 

 

Light My Fire

 

 

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

 

The 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, yeah

End Of The Night

 

 

Take the highway to the end of the night

End of the night, end of the night

Take a journey to the bright midnight

End of the night, end of the night

 

Realms of bliss, realms of light

Some are born to sweet delight

Some are born to sweet delight

Some are born to the endless night

End of the night, end of the night

End of the night, end of the night

 

Realms of bliss, realms of light

Some are born to sweet delight

Some are born to sweet delight

Some are born to the endless night

End of the night, end of the night

End of the night, end of the night

 

 

Take It As It Comes

 

 

Time to live

Time to lie

Time to laugh

Time to die

 

Takes it easy, baby

Take it as it comes

Don't move too fast

And you want your love to last

Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

 

Time to walk

Time to run

Time to aim your arrows

At the sun

 

Takes it easy, baby

Take it as it comes

Don't move too fast

And you want your love to last

Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

 

Go real slow

You like it more and more

Take it as it comes

Specialize in havin' fun

 

Takes it easy, baby

Take it as it comes

Don't move too fast

And you want your love to last

Oh, you've been movin' much too fast

Movin' much too fast

Movin' much too fast

 

 

The End

 

 

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

 

Lost in a Roman...wilderness of pain

And all the children are insane

All the children are insane

Waiting for the summer rain, yeah

 

There's danger on the edge of town

Ride the King's highway, baby

Weird scenes inside the gold mine

Ride the highway west, baby

 

Ride the snake, ride the snake

To the lake, the ancient lake, baby

The snake is long, seven miles

Ride the snake...he's old, and his skin is cold

 

The west is the best

The west is the best

Get here, and we'll do the rest

 

The blue bus is callin' us

The blue bus is callin' us

Driver, where you taken' us

 

The killer awoke before dawn, he put his boots on

He took a face from the ancient gallery

And he walked on down the hall

He went into the room where his sister lived, and...then he

Paid a visit to his brother, and then he

He walked on down the hall, and

And he came to a door...and he looked inside

Father, yes son, I want to kill you

Mother...I want to...*BLEEP* you

 

C'mon baby, take a chance with us

C'mon baby, take a chance with us

C'mon baby, take a chance with us

And meet me at the back of the blue bus

Doin' a blue rock

On a blue bus

Doin' a blue rock

C'mon, yeah

 

Kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill

 

This is the end

Beautiful friend

This is the end

My only friend, the end

 

It hurts to set you free

But you'll never follow me

The end of laughter and soft lies

The end of nights we tried to die

 

This is the end

"Strange Days" (1967)

 

Strange Days

 

 

Strange days have found us

Strange days have tracked us down

They're going to destroy

Our casual joys

We shall go on playing

Or find a new town

 

Yeah!

 

Strange eyes fill strange rooms

Voices will signal their tired end

The hostess is grinning

Her guests sleep from sinning

Hear me talk of sin

And you know this is it

 

Yeah!

 

Strange days have found us

And through their strange hours

We linger alone

Bodies confused

Memories misused

As we run from the day

To a strange night of stone

 

 

You're Lost Little Girl

 

 

You're lost little girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost

Tell me who

Are you?

 

I think that you know what to do

Impossible? Yes, but it's true

I think that you know what to do, yeah

I'm sure that you know what to do

 

You're lost little girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost

Tell me who

Are you?

 

I think that you know what to do

Impossible? Yes, but it's true

I think that you know what to do, girl

I'm sure that you know what to do

 

You're lost little girl

You're lost little girl

You're lost

 

 

Love Me Two Times

 

 

Love me two times, baby

Love me twice today

Love me two times, girl

I'm goin' away

Love me two times, girl

One for tomorrow

One just for today

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

 

Love me one time

I could not speak

Love me one time

Yeah, my knees got weak

But love me two times, girl

Last me all through the week

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

 

Oh, yes

 

Love me one time

I could not speak

Love me one time, baby

Yeah, my knees got weak

But love me two times, girl

Last me all through the week

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

 

Love me two times, babe

Love me twice today

Love me two times, babe

'Cause I'm goin' away

Love me two time, girl

One for tomorrow

One just for today

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

Love me two times

I'm goin' away

 

 

 

Unhappy Girl

 

 

 

Unhappy girl

Left all alone

Playing solitaire

Playing warden to your soul

You are locked in a prison

Of your own devise

And you can't believe

What it does to me

To see you

Crying

 

Unhappy girl

Tear your web away

Saw thru all your bars

Melt your cell today

You are caught in a prison

Of your own devise

 

Unhappy girl

Fly fast away

Don't miss your chance

To swim in mystery

You are dying in a prison

Of your own device

 

 

Horse Latitudes

 

 

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 heads bob up

Poise

Delicate

Pause

Consent

In mute nostril agony

Carefully refined

And sealed over

 

 

Moonlight Drive

 

 

Let's swim to the moon, uh huh

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, uh huh

Let's climb through the tide

Surrender to the waiting worlds

That lap against our side

 

Nothin' left open

And no time to decide

We've stepped into a river

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 love you

As I watch you glide

Falling through wet forests

On our moonlight drive, baby

Moonlight drive

 

Come on, baby, gonna take a little ride

Down, down by the ocean side

Gonna get real close

Get real tight

Baby gonna drown tonight

Goin' down, down, down

 

 

 

People Are Strange

 

 

People are strange when you're a stranger

Faces look ugly when you're alone

Women seem wicked when you're unwanted

Streets are uneven when you're down

 

When you're strange

Faces come out of the rain

When you're strange

No one remembers your name

When you're strange

When you're strange

When you're strange

 

People are strange when you're a stranger

Faces look ugly when you're alone

Women seem wicked when you're unwanted

Streets are uneven when you're down

 

When you're strange

Faces come out of the rain

When you're strange

No one remembers your name

When you're strange

When you're strange

When you're strange

 

When you're strange

Faces come out of the rain

When you're strange

No one remembers your name

When you're strange

When you're strange

When you're strange

 

 

My Eyes Have Seen You

 

 

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

Stand in your door

When we meet inside

Show me some more

Show me some more

Show me some more

 

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

Turn and stare

Fix your hair

Move upstairs

Move upstairs

Move upstairs

 

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

Free from disguise

Gazing on a city under

Television skies

Television skies

Television skies

 

My eyes have seen you

My eyes have seen you

Eyes have seen you

Let them photograph your soul

Memorize your alleys

On an endless roll

Endless roll [x 15]

 

 

I Can't See Your Face In My Mind

 

 

I can't see your face in my mind

I can't see your face in my mind

Carnival dogs

Consume the lines

Can't see your face in my mind

 

Don't you cry

Baby, please don't cry

And don't look at me

With your eyes

 

I can't seem to find the right lie

I can't seem to find the right lie

Insanity's horse

Adorns the sky

Can't seem to find the right lie

 

Carnival dogs

Consume the lines

Can't see your face in my mind

 

Don't you cry

Baby, please don't cry

I won't need your picture

Until we say goodbye

 

 

When The Music's Over

 

 

Yeah, c'mon

 

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, yeah

 

When the music's over

When the music's over

When the music's over

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

Turn out the lights

 

For the music is your special friend

Dance on fire as it intends

Music is your only friend

Until the end

Until the end

Until the end

 

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 arm

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, yeah, very clear

Come today, come today

 

What have they done to the earth?

What have they done to our fair sister?

Ravaged and plundered and 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

We want the world and we want it...

We want the world and we want it...

Now

Now?

Now!

 

Persian night, babe

See the light, babe

Save us!

Jesus!

Save us!

 

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

 

Well the music is your special friend

Dance on fire as it intends

Music is your only friend

Until the end

Until the end

Until the end!
