む(sic) Lyrics
Stand
by for some music (laughs). Well, it's music but uh, it has humor in
it. I'm striving hard now, friends, to see whether I can describe
what's going to happen. Well I can describe this much of it: it is
mechanically produced music. Sounds stereophonically recorded we think
will enchant you; familiar sounds in most cases, sounds that you'll
enjoy. There's some music involved a little later, but that's not
exactly what we're doing for the moment. We want to appeal to your
senses. We're a cinch to appeal to your ears, but I have a feeling
we'll appeal to your eyes to because you'll be trying to see the sounds
that you are hearing so clearly. In fact you might as well close your
eyes during the first few seconds of this one or you'll go crazy trying
to see these. Here I go (laughs). Presenting the color and the impact
and the realism of true stereophonic sound phonic sound. Now you and
your perceptory senses are in for fun, some thrills, some amazement.
We think complete enjoyment. Well, I'm going to get out of my dripping
sowester now and into the setting and sounds of our next adventure. Here,
I'll set the metronome. Yes, ma'am (laughs). Sigh. Here I go
(laughs). Sparky. Now I'll put one of the records on the phonograph
(laughs). Never end. Here I go (laughs). And I won't give up until I
can play as good as I did in my dream. Never end endevour.
Now
it's up to you to recognize the locale and scene of this next group of
sounds. The question is: where are we and what goes on? We'll
now let's settle down all of us and enjoy perhaps the sounds we like
most of all: some really good music. How does that strike us?
2. Camellion ChildHis
long ragged black coat was made of bat wings, fastened at the throat
with a mole skull. The immense war helmet he wore had the blooms of
blackbird and the horns of a stag beetle adorning it. From beneath the
slanted visor, his one eye glared viciously out at the abbey before
him.
3. Telescopes/ Microscopes Well,
look at the ether. Circle. Wherever you start, you very soon come
right back there where you started from. There are sounds everywhere
all the time. All you have to do is to keep still and listen to them.
Right now there are sounds you can here. And listen. How many sounds
can you hear right now? Count the sounds you can here. Right now.
Back forwards back forwards.
4. Leger de MainOohh
my god. Hi, I'm amazing Jason. And I'm going to show you some magick
tricks, okay? My first trick is with this white handkerchief and, oh
no, my handkerchief's not white. Hooray (claps). There is a sadistic
element in the police department uh. Abrahadabra. Huh...a real
rabbit. Hooray (claps). Whatever brutality they want on the
demonstrators. They'll be using chemical mase, clubs, teargas, horses,
all the rest of it. We regard them as the shock troops of the
establishment.
This is Satan that you hear speaking to
you. This is obviously an anti-Christian message; doesn't say anything
about hell, sin, damnation, doom or anything like that. So I must be
serving the dark one. But they're not here. Is there anyone else that
has any interesting objections to raise to this kind of fantasy? So
education makes you stupid. Medicine makes you sick. Transportation
doesn't get you there. Et cetera. So education doesn't get you
there. Medicine makes you stupid. Transportation makes you sick. Et
cetera et cetera et cetera. Enochian chanting. We'll take down the fence around the white house and have a picnic on the lawn.
Well, you have a nice walk...
5. Moriah Conquering WindAs you bring it, home. When you finish this page, close the book and listen, listen, listen, listen.
Round is a very nice shape, to be. Across the entire galaxy (fuzz) but they never proved that it was him (fuzz, static) Dinosaur wail "What
is the sky?" asked the little boy. "A big bowl full of clouds for a
giant's breakfast," said his grandmother with a wink. "A place to hang
stars when the sun goes down. A sea full of night for the moon to sail
across while you sleep. A playground for birds and a home for the
wind." "Maybe," said the little boy. "But I think it's just a lot of
blue air." And he went out to look for his cat.
6. Whistle PunkI'll
give you just a couple more minutes for those electronic devices. And
then I will need uh all of them turned off and tucked away for our
departure. (baby cries) Jodorowsky: espanol.
We
would have to take the brain apart. Even if we were prepared to do
this, it would be just too many particles to record. This is far too
many for us.
The trouble is our aggressive instincts seem to be encoded in our
DNA. DNA changes by biological evolution on a timescale of millions of
years. But our powers of destructions are increasing on a timescale
with the evolution of information, which is now only twenty or thirty
years. Unless we can use our intelligence to control our aggression,
there is not much chance for the human race. Still, life is life, this
happens. If we can survive the next hundred years or so, we would
spread to other planets and possibly to other stars. This will make it
much less likely that the entire human race would be wiped out by
calamity such as a nuclear war.
These were the pleasantest days of Sam's life. These days in the
woods. Far far from everywhere. No automobiles, no roads, no people,
no noise, no school, no homework, no problems. Except the problem of
getting lost and of course the problem of what to be when he grew up.
Every boy has that problem. He got out his notebook and found a
pencil. This is what he wrote... Book 1: Chapter ten, two, five, four, eight, nine, three, one, seven.
7. PopGot it. Like a Christmas tree.
I shall stay here in my box. Waiting preciously until I pop.
Hold
'em. Hold 'em. We don't want another Oswold. He has fired the shot.
He still has the gun, the gun is pointed right at me this moment.
French Once
again, as soon as baggage is completed and loaded onto our train and we
do hit the all clear, we will then be able to depart and head on the
westward journey. We do apologize for this delay, but we hope it will
be a bried delay. We do appreciate your patience. We thank you for
everyone who helped unload the train in an expediant fashion.
8. The Come DownI
was hit a few times and I was punched around. I was kicked, but I was
mostly terrified of possible beatings. And I was uh kept in solitary
confinement during the entire eleven months. There was uh many
occasions when I didn't think I was gonna make it. It was an
experience that I'll have to think about for a long time. But uh, I'll
never be able to understand it. T-minus sixty seconds and counting. T-minues sixty seconds. It
is done as the pyramids were built or as the parthenon was built.
Something we can do that's magnificent and wonderful. Man is made that
way. Whenever there's a challenge of this kind, someone, somewhere
will pick it up.
T-minues fifteen, fourteen, thirteen, twelve, eleven, ten, nine We
have ignition sequence start. The engines are on. Four. She's
building up and you can see the fire. Zero. Coming up. We have
commit. We have lift-off.
Lift-off at 7:51 AM eastern
standard time. She's clearing the tower now on the bright sapphire
flame. We're getting the shaking, tremendous blast is hitting us now.
She's going straight. She's in the roll program. She's looking good.
A bright, sapphire flame. Seven and a half million pounds. There on
their way.
Apollo 8 Houston. Go ahead Houston. Apollo
8, you are go for TLI, over. Roger, stand, we are go for TLI. Uh, we
see the uh earth now almost as a uh disk. We have a beautiful view of
Florida now, we can see the cape, uh, just the point.
I
think that each one of us carries his own impressions of what he's seen
today. I know my own impression that it's a vast, lonely, forbidding
type existence or expanse of nothing. It looks rather like clouds and
clouds of poumus stone. And it certainly would not appear to be an
inviting place to live or work. And god gave us the waters
having been gathered together into one place and let the dry land
appear and it was so. And god called the dry land earth. And the
gathering together of the waters called these seas. And god saw that
it was good. And from the crew of apollo 8, we close with good night,
good luck, a merry christmas, and god bless all of you, all of you on
the good earth.
Man may at least become himself Are
you familiar with the uh sir john eckell's views on life and the
universe. He is a nobel laureate in neurology. It is his opinion that
the earth is the only place in the universe that is inhabited by highly
intelligent beings. He says most of these statements about uh higher
life come from engineers and physicists who know nothing about geo
biology. And he says they don't realize how tremendously complex the
human organism is. He doesn't think it can happen twice in one
universe.
He's quite right (laughs) I am sure this idea that highly intelligent uh people are full of holes He
is quite right in thinking that the human organism probably doesn't
occur twice in one universe. We are the product of a long chain of DNA and DNA and DNA and DNA and DNA and DNA and DNA This
whole lecture I think initially came out of my own hallucinogenic UFO
experiences back in the day that I had with a friend of mine where I
started to suspect somewhere along the line that we might have conjured
uh these things or played a role in that uh experience. So I started
looking back into the history of UFOs and uh, going, you know, way back
uh to the experiences of Dr. John Dee, Aleister Crowley, then Jack
Parsons and these type of folks and uh how they employed uh ritual
magick to conjur beings and a lot of these beings appeared to be quite
similar to what uh we refer nowadays as extraterrestrials. So I kind
of traced that up until today. So that's kind of the uh basic idea
behind that lecture.
9. Dogon StarAs far away as the other side of the world. Even as far away as the first star that shines when the sky grows dark. That's a lot to think about, said the little boy. And he went out to dig a hole. Deeper than the water that runs in hidden rivers under the earth.
10. Etidorhpa(baby cries) To
cap the climax. To make, say. (goodbye everybody). Well now, someone
has made up my mind for me. Here come those (laughs) the bagpipers are
with us, friends. A jolly group if I ever saw one. With kilts
a-swinging and that gay sound. And they're going somewhere. I just
decided that I am too. I think I'll join them. (no one). Here we
go.
