That’s It for the Other One (Live at Carousel Ballroom, San Francisco, CA, March 17, 1968) The Grateful Dead
[Cryptical Envelopment/Quodlibet For Tender Feet]
[Verse]
The other day they waited, the sky was dark and faded
Solemnly they stated, "He has to die"
And all the children learnin', from books that they were burnin'
Every leaf was turnin'; to watch him die
The summer sun looked down on him, his mother could but frown on him
And all the others sound on him, but it doesn't seem to matter
And when the day had ended, with rainbow colors blended
His mind remained unbended, he had to die
[Instrumental]
[The Faster We Go, the Rounder We Get]
[Verse 1]
Spanish lady comes to me, she lays on me this rose
It rainbow spirals round and round it trembles and explodes
It left a smoking crater of my mind I like to blow away
But the heat came 'round and busted me for smiling on a cloudy day
[Chorus]
Comin', comin', comin' around (Comin' around)
Comin' around (Comin' around)
Comin', comin' (Comin'), comin' around (Comin' around)
Comin' around (Comin' around)
