The First Sound

(album: Stop Your Motor - 1971)

I'm sitting and listening for the first sound of the day
To take me to dare me, to comfort, to scare me
New games to play
Oh sunlight, my first light
Oh, whaddaya say

Yes, darkness, I have been waiting to change the beat of my drum
The common, the magic, the comic, the tragic
Oh, let it come
Oh sunlight, my first light
Oh, whaddaya say

Excite me! Daylight, invite me to spin the wheel
Excite me! Daylight, invite me to have a feel of ups and downs
And rounds and rounds and rounds and rounds and rounds

Oh! Let it come!

Whaddaya say!

Oh, excite me! Daylight, invite me to spin the wheel
Excite me! Daylight invite me to have a feel of ups and downs
And rounds and rounds and rounds and rounds and rounds!

Oh, in darkness, I have been waiting to change the beat of my drum!
The common, the magic, the comic, the tragic
Oh, let it come
Oh sunlight, my first light
Oh, whaddaya say
Whaddaya say
Whaddaya say
Oh, whaddaya say!...
