I. The Healing Colors Of Sound, Part 1

(Instrumental)



II. My Shoes

[God says]

Melt the ice by summer

Turn the grass from green to gold

Live the greatest story ever told



Don't mess the sacred mother

If things go wrong

Hey, it's alright

But don't kid yourself

I know what you'd really like



You'd like to be in my shoes

Wouldn't you now

Wouldn't you now

You'd like to be in my shoes

Wouldn't you now

Wouldn't you now



Melt the ice by summer

Send the critics down to NBC

'Cause I'm the will

Of the world that's about to be



And you'd like to be in my shoes

Wouldn't you now

Wouldn't you now

You'd like to be in my shoes

Wouldn't you now

Wouldn't you now



III. Mommy Comes Back

A baby was born in a small town yesterday

He's a magical child with a cosmic death ray

But his mother always wanted to play

Such a long way down



But mommy comes back

She always comes back to get me

Mommy comes back, she always comes back

And she never will forget me now



The baby grows up

And soon becomes a kid

Spends his whole life explaining

The things that his mother did

Then they say she went

And drowned

Such a long way down



CHORUS



When she came up

She'd looked better

»Look, dear, I made you a sweater«



Now it's all done

They live up in Monticello

With some pizza pockets

Some papers and a case of mello-yellow

But don't go in celloe - such a long way

Run when you hear the cello

You're in for a long stay

Hey, hey



IV. Lay It Down

Children yet to be born

Don't you mourn me now

'Cause the crows are in the corn

Lay it down, lay it down



Old man's on his porch

His house burning down

When he passes you his torch

Lay it down, lay it down



And
