Michael Franti And Spearhead - Caught Without An Umbrella lyrics

words and music by Jimi Hendrix

I just want to talk to you

I won't uh, do you no harm

I just want to know about your diff'rent lives

On this is here people farm

I heard some of you got your families

Living in cages tall and cold

And some just stay there and dust away

Past the age of old

Is this true?

Please let me talk to you.

I just wanna know about

The rooms behind your minds

Uh do I see a vacuum there

Or am I going blind?

Or is it just uh, remains of vibrations

And echoes long ago?

Uh things like "Love the world" and uh

Uh "Let your fancy flow"

Is this true?

Please let me talk to you

Let me talk to you.

I have lived here before

The days of ice

And of course this is why

I'm so concerned

And I come back to find

The stars misplaced

And the smell of a world

That is burned

A smell of a world

That is burned.

Yeah well, maybe, hmm...

Maybe it's just a... change of climate

Hmm, hmm...

Well I can dig it

I can dig it baby

I just want to see.

So where do I purchase my ticket?

I'd just like to have a ringside seat

I want to know about the new Mother Earth

I want to hear and see everything

I want to hear and see everything

I want to hear and see everything

Yeah...

Aww, shucks

If my daddy could see me now

Everything, everything, everything, oh everything.
