The Doors

The Doors were an American rock band formed in 1965 in Los Angeles, California, with vocalist Jim Morrison, keyboardist Ray Manzarek, drummer John Densmore and guitarist Robby Krieger. The band took its name from Aldous Huxley's book The Doors of Perception, the title of which was a reference to a William Blake quotation: "If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite." They were among the most controversial rock acts of the 1960s, due mostly to Morrison's wild, poetic lyrics and charismatic but unpredictable stage persona. After Morrison's death in 1971, the remaining members continued as a trio until finally disbanding in 1973. more »

Lament for my cock 
Sore and crucified 
I seek to know you 
Acquiring soulful wisdom 
You can open walls of mystery 
Strip show 

How to acquire death in the morning show 
TV death which the child absorbs 
Death well mystery which makes me write 
Slow train, the death of my cock gives life 

Forgive the poor old people who gave us entry 
Taught us god in the child's praye in the night 

Guitar player 
Ancient wise satyr 
Sing your ode to my cock 

Caress it's lament 
Stiffen and guide us, we frozen 
Lost cells 
The knowledge of cancer 
To speak to the heart
And give the great gift 
Words Power Trance 

This stable friend and the beast of his zoo 
Wild haired chicks 
Women flowering in their summit 
Monsters of skin 
Each color connects 
To create the boat 
Which rocks the race 
Could any hell be more horrible 
Than now 
And real? 

I pressed her thigh and death smiled
Death, old friend 
Death and my cock are the world 
I can forgive my injuries in the name of 
Wisdom Luxury Romance

Sentence upon sentence 
Words are the healing lament 
For the death of my cock's spirit 
Has no meaning in the soft fire 
Words got me the wound and will get me well 
I you believe it 

All join now and lament the death of my cock 
A tongue of knowledge in the feathered night 
Boys get crazy in the head and suffer 
I sacrifice my cock on the alter of silence
