two heads

after bathing at baxter's, 1967

music and lyrics: grace slick

in a major

lead guitar solos in a mixolydian



 F#m               C#m     E   E

You want two heads on your body

F#m                               E      E

And you've got two mirrors in your hand.

F#m                   A               C#m          A  

  Priests are made of brick with gold crosses on a stick

         G           A              C#m  F#m

and your nose is too small for this land.


A

Inside your head is your town

A

inside your room your jail

A

inside your mouth the elephant’s trunk and booze

A                    F#m

the only key to your bail


 F#m                 C#m   E    E

Two heads can be put together.

    F#m                    E                E

And you can fill both your feet with sand.

F#m                       A           C#m    

  No one will know you've gutted your mind

 A   G             A                C#m      F#m

 but what will you do with your bloody hands?


A

Your lions are fighting with chairs,

A

your arms are incredibly fat;

A

Your women are tired of dying alive

A                          F#m

if you've had any women at that.



F#m                       C#m       E       E

Wearing your comb like an ax in your head

F#m            E              E

List'ning for signs of life;          

F#m                        A  C#m      A

  Children are sucking on stooone and lead

    G              A            C#m        F#m

 And chasing their hoops with a knife;


A

New breasts and jewels for the girl,

A

Keep them polished and shining;

A

Put a lock on her belly at night, sweet life,

A               F#m 

For no child of mine.
