The Three Mushrooms Lyrics

Gilberto Gil The Three Mushrooms

The first mushroom
Makes room for my mind
To get inside the magic room
Of Dionisius' house

Time is over
War is over
I am safe and sound
I live and love
I drink and eat
I can leap and bound
Now I am dying all my life away
As well as I am being reborn
Day after day

The second mushroom
Makes room for my body
To get inside the tragic room
Of Dionisius' house

Time is on
War is all
I am busy and sad
From mists of pain
I rise and fall
Like an endless rain
Now I am doing what I have to do
Fulfilling all my will of conquest
Moon after moon

The last mushroom
Makes room for the unknown
I get inside the secret room
Of an unthinkable house
In which I feel the grace
In which I get to be the space
From which I see the earth
Exploding into a light
That the last mushroom aroused

The last mushroom
Atomic mushroom
