When I was a kid in school
They showed me symbols on a card
Then they sent them from a locked and bolted room
I had to fake that it was hard
Circle, square, triangle, waves
I got them crystal clear by the hour
And all I said was "may I please take a rest?"
I didn't want them to know I was possessed

With Psi Power
Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at
I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

When I was a teenage kid
and I hung around the streets
I could see inside the mind
of any girl that I wanted to meet
Wave, triangle, circle, square
They opened to me like a flower
Would you like to have your mind caressed?
Can't you feel that I'm possessed

With Psi Power
Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

Psi Power
Psi Power
Psi Power
I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

It's like a radio you can't switch off
There's no way to get peace of mind
I'd like to live inside a lead-lined room
And leave all this Psi Power behind

Circle, square, triangle, waves
It's a gift that soon turns sour
Why don't they let me get some rest?
It's too much to understand and to digest

Psi Power
Psi Power
Psi Power

I can read your mind like a magazine
I see where you're at
I know what you mean
I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep

In the tenth second of forever,
I thought of the sea and a white yacht drifting...
In the ninth second of forever,
I thought of a leaf, a stone,
the plastic fragment of a child's toy...
In the eighth second of forever,
I remembered a warm room where voices played...
In the seventh second of forever,
I thought of the life I would not lead...
In the sixth second of forever,
I saw your mouth whispering something I could hear...
In the fifth second of forever,
I thought of the vermilion deserts of Mars,
The jewelled forests of Venus...
In the fourth second of forever,
I could remember nothing that I did not love...
In the third second of forever,
I thought of rain against a window, I thought of the wind...
In the second second of forever,
I thought of the pair of broken shades lying on the tarmac...
In the first and final second of forever,
I thought of the long past that had led to now,
and never... never... never... never...

Lyrically, those are probably my twop favourite Hawkwind tracks (although, strictly speaking, Psi Power isn't a Hawkwind track, its a Hawklords one :tongue5: )
