That's It for the Other One - Grateful Dead

The other day they waited, the sky was dark and faded,

Solemnly they stated, «He has to die, you know he has to die.»

All the children learnin', from books that they were burnin',

Every leaf was turnin';

to watch him die, you know he had to die.

The summer sun looked down on him, his mother could but frown on him,

And all the others sound on him, but it doesn’t seem to matter.

And when the day had ended, with rainbow colors blended,

His mind remained unbended, he had to die, you know he had to die.

A spanish lady comes to me, she lays on me this rose.

It’s rainbows spiral round and round and tremble then explode.

It left a smokin' crater of my mind I’d like to have blown away.

The heat came round and busted me for smilin' on a cloudy day.

Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around,

comin' around, in a circle

Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around, in a circle,

Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' in a circle.

Escaping through the lilly fields I came across an empty space,

It trembled then exploded, left a busstop in it’s place.

The bus came by and I got on, that’s when it all began,

There was cowboy Neal at the wheel and the bus to never-never land.

Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around,

comin' around, in a circle

Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' around, in a circle,

Comin', comin', comin' around, comin' in a circle.

And when the day had ended, with rainbow colors blended,

Their minds remained unbended,

He had to die, Oh, you know he had to die.
