The Three Mushrooms Songtext
von Gilberto Gil

The first mushroom
Makes room for my mind
To get inside the magic room
Of Dionysus house

Time is over, war is over
I am safe and sound
I live and love, I drink and eat
I can leap and bound

Now I am dying all my life away
As well as I am being reborn
Day after day

The second mushroom
Makes room for my body
To get inside the tragic room
Of Dionysus house


Time is on, war is all
I am busy and sad
From mists of pain
I rise and fall

Like an endless rain
Now I am doing what I have to do
Fulfilling all my will of conquest
Moon after moon

The last mushroom
Makes room for the unknown
I get inside the secret room
Of an unthinkable house

In which I feel the grace
In which I get to be the space
From which I see the Earth
Exploding into a light
That the last mushroom aroused, oh yeah

The last mushroom (the last mushroom)
Oh yeah (oh yeah)
Atomic mushroom
Atomic mushroom (atomic mushroom)
Atomic mushroom (atomic mushroom)
