"Shocked me too, the things we used to do On Grass"
OK, it's meant to convey the feelings you had as a youngster lying in a field on a hot summer's day, but like so many other XTC lyrics, it's a double entendre.

26. Talking Viet Nam Potluck Blues - Tom Paxton |
|
Edited on Fri Oct-08-04 03:37 PM by ParanoidPat
:smoke: I'm dating myself here. :hippie:
On Edit: Added lyrics as best I can remember them.
Now when I landed in Viet Nam I hardly got to see Saigon they shaped us up and called the roll and off we went on a long patrol
Swapin' lies, swattin' flies, firin' the odd shot here and there
The Captain called a halt one night and we had chow by the pale moonlight a lovely dinner they'd planned for us with a taste like a seat on a cross town bus
Some of the veterans left theirs layin' in the cans for the Viet Cong to find Deadlier than a land mine!
Well after dinner someone told a joke an' a couple of the fella's began to smoke I took a whiff as the cloud rolled by and my nose went up like an infield fly
Captain was a blond fella from Yale, he looked up at me and said, "Now what's the matter with you baby?"
"Well I may be crazy but I think not I'd swear to God that I smell pot! But who'd have pot in Viet Nam?"
He said "What do you think you've been sitting on? These funny little plants, thousands of 'em". Good GOD Almighty! PAAASSSSTURES OF PLENTY!
Well we all light up and by and by the whole platoon was flying high With the beautiful smile on the Captains face he smelled like midnight on St. Marks Place
Cleaning his weapon, chanting the Hare Krishna.
Well the time had come as it comes to all when I had to answer natures call I was stumblin' 'round in a beautiful haze when I met a little cat in black PJ's
Rifle, ammo belt, B.F. Goodrich sandles, he looked up at me and said, "Now Wat's 'matta wit choo baby?"
He said, "we was campin' down the pass and smelled you people blowin' grass and since by the smell you're smokin' trash I brought you a taste of a special stash,
Straight from uncle Ho's Victory Garden, we call it Hanoi Gold
So his squad and my squad settled down passed some lovely stuff around all too soon it was time to go the Captain got on the radio,
He said, "Hello headquarters, we have met the enemy and he has been smashed!"

33. "That Acapulco Gold" by the Rainy Daze |
|
Me and Martha took a honeymoon, Below the border 'neath the silvery moon, I was eighteen and she was twenty two, Now we're just a-doin' what the young folks do
We're goin' south, south, to get that Acapulco Gold Ain't nothin' it can't fix, Old dogs can learn new tricks, When the streets are lined with bricks Of Acapulco Gold.
Done in a sort of ragtag ragtime, jug band without a jug style.

I don't recall if it's by NOFX or Blink 182. The singer isn't annoying-sounding like Blink, so maybe it's NOFX. Fun song.

White Rabbit by the worst band in the world.
Unbound, by Robbie Robertson.

Flaming: Pink Floyd:
Alone in the clouds all blue Lying on an eiderdown yippie ! You can't see me, but I can you
Lazing in the foggy dew Sitting on an Unicorn No fear! You can't hear me, but I can you
Watching buttercups come to light Sitting on a dandelion Too much! I won't touch you, but then I might
Swimming through the starlit sky Traveling by telephone Hey-ho ! Here we go ever so hiiiiiiiiiiiiigh!
(break for typical psychedelic instrumental)
Alone in the clouds all blue Lying on an eiderdown - yippie ! You can't see me, but I can you
