The Three Mushrooms
Gilberto Gil
The first mushroom
Makes room for my mind
To get inside the magic room
Of Dionisius' 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 Dionisius' 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
The last mushroom
Atomic mushroom
