There's a lot to be said for taking a good hard look at yourself.
I always believed that if I ran off to India
Wore sandals and shaved my head
And used Body shop conditioner, and incense like crazy
I could call myself a spirit head
But I only went to India to look on top
I wore sandals cause I'd smoked all my money
And I shaved off all my hair cause I had the fleas
I'd been sleeping all over
And the Body shop conditioner was a present from a friend
And the incense used to hide the smell
Of the drug den that I lay in
And so I ask myself what my motives are
For this lying need to look so free
And if I tell myself real honestly
What more can I admit to, open up a door
He said I'm gonna find out what I'm here for
He said I'd find out soon
I got too much Saturn and not enough Moon
I always believed that if I never missed a Yoga class
Read my horoscope in the dailies
And recycle bottles, and know a Red Indian
I could call myself a spirit man
But I was only doing Yoga cause I fancied the teacher
And stars cause it looked good on paper
And I only went to church cause my granny gave me money
When confession was over
And I only knew the Indian cause his brother's a dealer
And bottles had a price on their return
So I could go and play, Oh my my
And so I ask myself what my motives are
For this lying need to look so free
And if I tell myself real honestly
What more can I admit to, open up a door
He said I'm gonna find out what I'm here for
He said I'd find out soon
I got too much Saturn and not enough Moon
So now that you know why I don't love you
And now that you see that I'm so scared
Am I a good man ?
Am I a deep deep man ?
What more can I admit to, open up a door
He said I'm gonna find out what I'm here for
He said I'd find out soon
I got too much Saturn
How can I admit it, open up a door
He said I'm gonna find out what I'm here for
He said I'd find out soon
I got too much Saturn and not enough Moon
After Marty Robbins released his songs of the islands album, I came to think he must originally be from Hawaii. Nope. He just recorded their songs. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=i1VnRvq90Wk

Good morning. I recall when steam powered trains went diesel. Those beautiful steam belching engines replaced with ugly box-like monstrosities -

I have a co-worker named Wayne Eddy.
I wonder whether he got teased about it as a kid?
I saw Broderick Crawford in some movies I really liked. When I was a kid I saw him in The Last Posse. One of those fifties films in which the star has been mortally wounded, but lives long enough to explain how and why he got killed, like D.O.A. He says to the outlaw, "You won't shoot me. There are too many witnesses." Blam. Mortally wounded.
