Magic Carpet Lyrics

Magic Carpet lyrics

(Thompson/Graham McPherson/Foreman)



[Backgroung vocals on intro and chorus : "Caution !"]



I am the little white liar who lights up the desires

Of unsuspecting self indulging fools neverending

In their quest for bending the golden rule



"E" on every corner crack for little Jack Horner

Who laughs hysterically at the mourner trying to pull him

Up from the ground can't he see there's no peace for the wicked

Or the likes of you and me so



Hop aboard this magic carpet ride

(There's no turning back once you decide)

Welcome aboard this magic carpet ride

(There's no pulling out in me you can confide)



You've got to make up your own mind

Just where it is you're destined to

Don't let anyone downheart or dissuade you

You're on a straight course               Ride on through !!



The eagle eye is sleeping so into your thoughts I'm creeping

Not sure of what you're feeling could be your wet dreaming

Or oh! is this the real thing or just another rehearsal

Of the act you were born to



Hop aboard my magic carpet ride

(There's no turning back once you decide)

Welcome aboard this magic carpet ride

(There's no pulling out in me you can confide)



You've got to make up your own mind

Just where it is you're destined to

Don't let anyone downheart or dissuade you

You're on a straight course               Ride on through !!



You've got to make up your own mind

Just where it is you're destined to

Don't let anyone downheart or dissuade you

You're on a straight course               Ride on through !!

(And if you're working
