[00:00.679] When I was back there in seminary school
[00:04.679] There was a person there
[00:07.440] Who put forth the proposition
[00:09.931] That you can petition the Lord with prayer
[00:16.187] Petition the lord with prayer
[00:21.669] Petition the lord with prayer
[00:28.925] You cannot petition the lord with prayer!
[00:42.943] Can you give me sanctuary
[00:50.443] I must find a place to hide
[00:55.687] A place for me to hide
[01:11.928] Can you find me soft asylum
[01:18.675] I can't make it anymore
[01:24.184] The Man is at the door
[01:39.421] Peppermint miniskirts, chocolate candy
[01:47.191] Champion sax and a girl named Sandy
[02:02.426] There's only four ways to get unraveled
[02:06.674] One is to sleep and the other is travel, da da
[02:12.185] One is a bandit up in the hills
[02:15.923] One is to love your neighbor 'till
[02:19.932] His wife gets home
[02:30.179] Catacombs, Nursery bones, Winter women
[02:35.929] Growing stones
[02:38.937] Carrying babies
[02:40.677] To the river
[02:45.934] Streets and shoes
[02:47.925] Avenues
[02:50.174] Leather riders
[02:51.925] Selling news
[03:01.925] The monk bought lunch
[03:06.440] Ha ha, he bought a little
[03:07.428] Yes, he did, Woo!
[03:10.934] This is the best part of the trip
[03:12.688] This is the trip, the best part
[03:15.425] I really like
[03:16.685] What'd he say?
[03:23.169] Yeah!, Yeah, right!
[03:39.192] Pretty good, huh
[03:42.687] Huh!
[03:56.176] Yeah, I'm proud to be a part of this number
[04:03.676] Successful hills are here to stay
[04:08.424] Everything must be this way
[04:13.431] Gentle streets where people play
[04:17.920] Welcome to the Soft Parade
[04:22.683] All our lives we sweat and save
[04:27.177] Building for a shallow grave
[04:32.192] Must be something else we say
[04:37.175] Somehow to defend this place
[04:41.419] Everything must be this way
[04:46.175] Everything must be this way, yeah
[05:18.680] The Soft Parade has now begun
[05:23.673] Listen to the engines hum
[05:28.176] People out to have some fun
[05:33.177] A cobra on my left
[05:35.428] Leopard on my right, yeah
[05:42.423] The deer woman in a silk dress
[05:46.934] Girls with beads around their necks
[05:51.675] Kiss the hunter of the green vest
[05:55.427] Who has wrestled before
[05:58.683] With lions in the night
[06:05.932] Out of sight!
[06:10.186] The lights are getting brighter
[06:19.425] The radio is moaning
[06:25.169] Calling to the dogs
[06:28.921] There are still a few animals
[06:34.180] Left out in the yard
[06:37.420] But it's getting harder
[06:43.922] To describe sailors
[06:51.921] To the underfed
[07:02.428] Tropic corridor
[07:05.423] Tropic treasure
[07:07.425] What got us this far
[07:09.184] To this mild equator?
[07:11.686] We need someone or something new
[07:16.678] Something else to get us through, yeah, c'mon
[07:24.183] Callin' on the dogs
[07:26.180] Callin' on the dogs
[07:28.928] Oh, it's gettin' harder
[07:30.673] Callin' on the dogs
[07:32.181] Callin' in the dogs
[07:34.180] Callin' all the dogs
[07:36.431] Callin' on the gods
[07:38.690] You gotta meet me
[07:40.172] Too late, baby
[07:41.430] Slay a few animals
[07:43.939] At the crossroads
[07:44.923] Too late
[07:46.182] All in the yard
[07:47.428] But it's gettin' harder
[07:48.429] By the crossroads
[07:50.186] You gotta meet me
[07:51.423] Oh, we're goin', we're goin great
[07:53.439] At the edge of town
[07:55.170] Tropic corridor
[07:56.429] Tropic treasure
[07:58.684] Havin' a good time
[08:00.174] Got to come along
[08:01.931] What got us this far
[08:02.931] To this mild equator?
[08:03.427] Outskirts of the city
[08:03.937] You and I
[08:05.424] We need someone new
[08:06.191] Somethin' new
[08:06.685] Somethin' else to get us through
[08:07.932] Better bring your gun
[08:09.433] We're gonna ride and have some fun
[08:10.170] Better bring your gun
[08:12.679] Tropic corridor, Tropic treasure
[08:13.434] When all else fails
[08:14.924] We can whip the horse's eyes
[08:19.430] And make them sleep, And cry
