Song of the day: “Five To One” - The Doors - The Doors Box Set

Nobody gonna come up here and love me, huh?
Come’on.
Alright for you baby.
That’s too bad.
I’ll get somebody else. Yeah.

Five to one, baby, one in five
No one here gets out alive, now
You get yours, I get mine
Gonna make it, baby, if we try, yeah come’on

The old get older, the young get stronger
May take a week and it may take longer.
They got the guns, but we got the numbers
Gonna win, yeah, we’re taking over. Come’on. Let’s take over, yeah!

Ahhhhhh!
You’re all a bunch of fuckin’ idiots!
Lettin’ people tell you what you’re gonna do!
Lettin’ people push you around!
How long do you think it’s gonna last?
How long are you gonna let it go on?
How long are you gonna let ‘em push you around?
How long?
Maybe you like it! Maybe you like being pushed around!
Maybe you love it! Maybe you love gettin’ your face stuck in the shit! Come’on!
You love it, don’t ya?
You love it.
You’re all a bunch of slaves! Lettin’ everybody push you around.
What are you gonna do about it?
What are you gonna do about it?
What are you gonna do about it!
What are you gonna do about it!
What are you gonna do about it!
What are you gonna do!

Your ballroom days are over, baby
Night is drawing near
Shadows of the evening crawl across the years.

You walk across the floor with flowers in your hands
Trying to tell me no one understands
Trade in your hours for a handful of dimes
Gonna make it baby in our prime.

Get together one more time.
Get together one more time.
Get together one more time.
Get together one more time.
Get together one more time!
Get together one more time!
Get together one more time!

Now come’on, honey.
How you go along and work for me sweetheart,
I’ll be there in just a little while.
You see, I gotta go out in this car with these people … and get
Fucked up.

Get together one more time!
Get together one more time!
Get together one more time!
Get together one more time!

Hey, I’m not talking about no revolution.
I’m not talking about no demonstration.
I’m not talking about gettin’ out in the streets.
I’m talking about having some fun.
I’m talking about dancing.
I’m talking about love yo neighbor … ‘till it hurts.
I’m talking about grab your friend.
I’m talking about love.
I’m talking about some love.
I’m talking about some love.
I’m talking about love.
Love. Love. Love. Love.
Love. Love. Love. Grab your … fuckin’ friend and love him!
Come’on.

Lunatic? Genius? … Prophet?
