One night when I was sleeping A gypsy woman sneak into my head, and she said, "I've got a bottle of schnapps Let's get to know each other drinking, A belly full of laughs And some thoughts that beyond thinking. Let's play a game of those cards My friend Because tonight I'm going to show you How the night it never, never, never end".
Morning is one thousand dreams away And our mad condition telling us to stay. So stay we will We've got that gypsy lady perched upon our bow And the empire ship be heading Where the wild ones they are now. Oh how the gods look down and frown At those who never stood and said My name is no-one And went a little mad, And went a little mad.
And from time to time she sneak back inside me And she say "Lucky sing the secrets that I taught you always". Replied "as long as I am living I never forget That the sun is never rising and is never set". So, let's make some fire And smoke and then We'll go exploring In the night that never, never, never end.
Morning is one thousand dreams away And our mad condition telling us to stay. So stay we will We've got that gypsy lady perched upon our bow And the empire ship be heading Where the wild ones they are now. Oh how the gods look down and frown At those who never stood and said My name is no-one And went a little mad, And went a little mad.
I've got a tingle in my back And something sparking in my toes, I get the shivers through my body When that trumpet blows. And while asleep I am awake And while awake I am dreaming Before I start to think I am scheming To start a party tonight, my friends, Because the woman in my head she said Tonight is never, never going to end.
