Rising Sun Songtext
von George Harrison

On the street of villains
Taken for a ride
You can have the devil as a guide
Crippled by the boundaries
Programmed into guilt
′Til your nervous system starts to tilt.

And in the room of mirrors
You can see for miles
But everything that's there is in disguise
Every word you′ve uttered
And every thought you've had
Is all inside your file
The good and the bad.


But in the rising sun
You can feel your life begin
Universe at play inside your DNA
You're a billion years old today
Oh the rising sun
And the place it′s coming from
Is inside of you and now your payment′s overdue
Oh the rising sun
Oh the rising sun

On the avenue of sinners
I have been employed
Working there 'til I was near destroyed
I was almost a statistic inside a doctor′s case
When I heard the messenger from inner space
He was sending me a signal that so for long I had Ignored
But he held on to my umbilical cord
Until the ghost of memory trapped in my body mind
Came out of hiding to become alive.

And in the rising sun
You can hear your life begin
And it's here and there nowhere and everywhere
Though it′s atmosphere is rare
Oh the rising sun
And the place that it's coming from
Is inside of me and now I feel it constantly
Oh the rising sun
Oh the rising sun


But in the rising sun
You can feel your life begin
Universe at play inside your DNA
You′re a billion years old today
Oh the rising sun
And the place it's coming from
Is inside of you and now your payment's overdue
Oh the rising sun
Oh the rising sun
Oh the rising sun
