Mr Mojo Risin -Jim Morrison


Mr Mojo Risin

He lit my fire, he reached within, my soul to take, the Lizard King.

Through the Doors of perception he cried,
"I’m the crawling King snake baby,
I’m the Changeling; I roam the City at night.
I live up town, I live down town, I live all around. 
My star is bright".

He lit my fire, he reached within, my soul to take, the Lizard King.

Florida child, he returned, with leather pants thrust, angry chant, Yeah! "C'mon, c'mon, c'mon, c'mon now Touch me, babe" - and then the bust.
In self destruct he headed west to the La women
He loved the best.

He lit my fire, he reached within, my soul to take, the Lizard King.

His Angel face began to change, to chubby cherub with grizzly beard. His voice like gravel lowered
in range. Riding on the storm he cried again, “There is a killer on the road”, through the driving rain.

He lit my fire, he reached within, my soul to take, the Lizard King.

To Paris, a poet to be, in streets of rebel Glory.
He loved her madly; she could be his guide,
While he tried to break through to the other Side.
Now finished with records and tours,
and so he had closed the Doors.

He lit my fire, he reached within, my soul to take, the Lizard King.

He was here and there too short a while, a demon haunting his full lip smile.
He joined a band of poets and painters, lying cold in 
Pere lachaise. A tourist hive,
With the chilling words, “no one gets out of here alive”.

He lit my fire, he reached within, my soul to take, the Lizard King.
