Lyrics
Intro
Backwards loops of consciousness collide
While establishment lies multiply and divide
Studio walls breathing with electric hum
Prophetic visions of what's yet to come
Verse
Morning paper headlines blur and fade
Truth gets lost in the masquerade
Satellite beams carrying coded dreams
Nothing here is quite what it seems
Pre-Chorus
Tune out, drop down, feel the frequency
Question all authority
Chorus
Dear President Reagan, can you hear our call
Through the television static and the palace wall
We're sending you our message from the underground
Where the flower children gather without a sound
Verse 1
Kaleidoscope visions paint the morning sky
While the war machine keeps rolling by
In boardrooms made of marble they decide our fate
But love is all we need to open up the gate
Pre-Chorus
Turn on, tune in, let the music play
There's got to be another way
Chorus
Dear President Reagan, can you hear our call
Through the television static and the palace wall
We're sending you our message from the underground
Where the flower children gather without a sound
Verse 2
Backward masking secrets in the radio waves
Speaking truth to power from beyond the grave
The revolution's coming but it won't use guns
Just consciousness expanding until morning comes
Pre-Chorus
Turn on, tune in, let the music play
There's got to be another way
Chorus
Dear President Reagan, can you hear our call
Through the television static and the palace wall
We're sending you our message from the underground
Where the flower children gather without a sound
Outro
Peace and love, peace and love
That's all we're thinking of
Bridge
Strawberry fields of consciousness unfold
While plastic soldiers march in lines of gold
The ministry of truth rewrites the past
But psychedelic dreams are built to last
Verse 3
Crystal radio transmissions from the moon
Tell us that the change is coming soon
Corporate puppets dancing on their strings
While we discover what tomorrow brings
Pre-Chorus
Drop out, drop in, feel the cosmic flow
There's so much more than they will ever know
Final Chorus
Dear President Reagan, we've found our voice
In meditation halls we make our choice
The underground is rising from the earth
A generation claiming its rebirth
Verse 4
Sitar strings are weaving through the cosmic dust
While establishment foundations turn to rust
Mirror fragments showing alternate realities
Where peace prevails across the seven seas
Pre-Chorus
Plug in, fade out, let your spirit soar
There's magic waiting just beyond the door
Chorus
Dear President Reagan, time is running thin
The age of Aquarius is about to begin
We're broadcasting love through satellite and wire
Setting all the dormant hearts on fire
Bridge 2
Mandala patterns spinning in the smoke
While ancient wisdom whispers what they spoke
The Pentagon's geometry can't contain
The circles of compassion breaking every chain
Verse 5
Tambourine prophecies ring through the hall
As plastic empires crumble and fall
We're painting rainbows on the concrete gray
Tomorrow's children lighting up the way
Pre-Chorus
Breathe deep, reach out, feel the universe expand
There's power growing in our peaceful band
Final Chorus
Dear President Reagan, hear the temple bells
Our revolution breaks your binding spells
From rooftops high
Verse 6
Incense burning in the capitol dome
While we journey far from what they call home
Electric sitars pierce the morning mist
Names of power crossed off freedom's list
Pre-Chorus
Phase out, phase in, let the colors blend
All illusions have to reach their end
Chorus
Dear President Reagan, see the writing clear
Upon the walls of your cathedral of fear
We're weaving spells of hope through acid rain
Breaking all the links in your golden chain
Outro
Om mani padme hum
Om mani padme hum
The future's already begun
