Roky Erickson The Looking Glass Song
Though it's already known for manners
I ask you with my voice
We have the same good sensitivity
To thank God for presence we rejoice
Kind one, oh kind one
Oh where have you been
Once around the world
Then back again
Kind one, oh kind one
Oh where have you been
Twice around the world
Then back again
What are you thinking
If I may quiz
Just thanking God for one certain definition
Of the use of relative
The looking glass, the looking glass
Why is it round
Just what I've seen
Some of the good that I've found
Existing and living (being) being twice
We are, but we are living
Which surely makes it nice
Look into the looking glass
I can tell you what you should see
A beautiful person worth saving
For God, Jesus Christ and all humanity
