[00:19.59]So we were down in Brazil and,
[00:20.97]man, that place is wild
[00:22.71]We were in Rio de Janeiro,
[00:24.33]and uh, we had this, this sort of, uh
[00:26.78]Security-guard type guy,
[00:28.21]and he was supposed to take us around and say hey
[00:30.67]Could, you know, could you take us to the
[00:32.04]The favelas and show us the prostitution and the drug deals and the night fights and the
[00:36.49]You know, the street life of your town,
[00:38.88]and he said sure, so we, we pull up to this hooker
[00:41.69]And she's wearing some kind of a, a bright green miniskirt,
[00:45.32]and it turns out it's a transsexual
[00:47.13]And he says "Get over here!"
[00:48.32]and she comes over and she thinks she's busted,
[00:49.88]but she's not busted
[00:52.48]Naw, she's not busted,
[00:53.54]he just wanted to smack her on the ass a few times
[00:55.92]and say "Hey, what's up, girl?"
[00:57.05][02:18.37]Get out of bed and I clear up my head
[00:59.72][02:21.12]and I don't want to go but I do it instead
[01:03.31][02:24.60]We all dream within a dream
[01:12.73][02:33.89]Get into bed and I turn off my head
[01:15.46][02:36.71]And I? started to float but I sunk when she said,
[01:18.96][02:40.28]"we're all dreams within a dream"
[01:41.12]So I remember we got our driver's license,
[01:43.08]and my friend Hillel had this little Dodson, painted green, and...
[01:46.87]Hollywood would get so crazy in the winter--
[01:50.38]the rains would come and the hills would just kind of melt down into the city lights
[01:54.59]And, well, you know, we smoked weed and we'd go up in the hills
[01:57.93]and we'd listen to progressive rock music and just kind of trip out and...
[02:02.20]Well, we would dream, you know, we would dream,
[02:04.72]and we would talk about what we wanted to do,
[02:06.63]and we would talk about girls and music
[02:09.29]And, you know, Hillel wanted to be a rock star--
[02:11.67]I didn't even know what that was, I was like,
[02:13.43]whatever you want to do, man, I'm coming with you
[02:16.91]I'm right with you, my friend
[02:59.68]Why in the world would you want it to be--
[03:03.63]why would you want to take it so...
[03:06.44]so literally?
[03:10.13]All these things that come down from the sky,
[03:13.38]raining upon your head,
[03:16.06]make you stop and wonder why--ah!
[03:20.41]Can't they just spell it out, make it clear,
[03:23.67]make it easy to read for the simple man like me?
[03:28.61]I don't think so
[03:31.47]I reach out to my family and I say
[03:34.71]It's not about religion and the God sitting in a chair
[03:39.26]in the sky with a punishing hand, oh
[03:44.05]It's about heaven in your heart
[03:49.51]Now when shall we start?
[03:52.78]I wanna choose love instead of fear
[03:57.19]Won't you come right now over here and be a part of my
[04:02.90](Ah)
[04:07.61]This time
[04:10.08]I love you
