Oxygen to the Brain Songtext
von Brian Wilson

Open up, open up, open your eyes
It′s time, it's time, it′s time to rise
Okay, let's take it slow
You ain't got no place to go

I cried a million tears
I wasted a lot of years
Life was so dead (so dead)
Life was so dead (so dead)

Oxygen, oxygen right to the brain
Skip the vice versus, get to the refrain
Let yourself go, don′t carry that weight
Never destroy when you can create

Ready steady, California
I′m filling up my lungs again
And breathing light

How could I have got so low
I'm embarassed to tell you so
I laid around this whole place
I hardly ever washed my face


Oxygen, oxygen right to the brain
Skip the vice versus, get to the refrain
Let yourself go, don′t carry that weight
Never destroy when you can create

Ready steady, California
I'm filling up my lungs again
And breathing light

Now it don′t matter what your age is
Don't you know it′s just a state of mind
Let's get the jump on it before it's too late
Friendly reminder, friendly reminder

So take a lesson from one who knows
Just where being lazy goes
There′s a time to live
A reason to live, to live, to live

Oxygen, oxygen right to the brain
Skip the vice versus, get to the refrain
Let yourself go, don′t carry that weight
Never destroy when you can create

Ready steady, California
I'm filling up my lungs again
And breathing light


Open up, open up, open your eyes
It′s time, it's time, it′s time to rise
Okay, let's take it slow
You ain′t got no place to go
