The Incredible String Band
The Juggler’s Song
Gather round friends and I'll show you what I made
Something in my bag that'll surprise you all
It's a secret, don't push, I'm not ready
Something to dazzle your eyes-o
Something to blow your mind away
Something that I made today
The first little ball is red and green
Oh it's pretty
Yes I know what you mean
I call it Substance, do dio dio do
What it will do I just don't know
But the trees may whisper and the hills may grow
While it's changing
The first and only juggler, I must be the best
I love to see the rings spin, never at rest
Up in the air and back to me
What it will do I just can't see
Something to blow your mind away
Something that I made today
The next little ball is silver and black
See it chase the first one forward and back
I call it Space, do dio dio do
What it will do I just don't know
But it seems to make a difference just to have it so
While it's changing
The next little ball is too hot to hold
I have to keep tossing it and I hope it gets cold
I call it Power do dio dio dio
What it will do I just don't know
But it seems to make the whole thingummywhojemyflippery rattle and go
While it's changing
The first and only juggler, and I must be the best
I love to see the rings spin, never at rest
Up in the air and back to me
What it will do I just can't see
Something to blow your mind away
Something that I made today
The next little ball is orange and blue
I can't juggle four so I'll toss it to you
And I call it Time...
