Lyrics

When I was young, they took me to the dentist
I had a toothache, but that's okay
They gave me some time and that night in my bedroom
I worked it loose like I used to do
One little boy in a dentist's chair
Heard a hundred angels flying past him
What a gas, sitting there
The same little boy with a few more years
Took a sniff of this, a taste of that
What a drag, nothing there
And then one day, he saw you walk
And heard you didn't talk
Saw the writing on the wall
It didn't thunder anymore
White lightning, it's got nothing on you
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Oh it didn't shine like you, Lord
White lightning way out in the blue
With a million angels singin'
Oh it didn't sound like you, Lord
Come on to tell, when I tell you to breathe in
I will take out everything while you're sleeping
Always refusing the heavenly music
When you awake it will have a new meaning
White lightning, it's got nothing on you
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Oh it didn't shine like you, Lord
White lightning way out in the blue
With a million angels singin'
Oh it didn't sound like you, Lord
