Jane’s Addiction
Three Days (Live, 1990)
[Spoken]
It's once in a lifetime
This moment is once in a lifetime
It will not be presented to you again like a beer commercial
You better suck on it now
'Cause it will be gone
Take a look around
Not too bad
Me, I make sure I do this everyday
This is my morning
Are you guys stunned or what?
You're stunned, huh?
You guys are my coffee, man
I haven't even put sugar in it yet, man
And I, and I won't, I won't

[Intro]
At this moment
You should be with us
Feeling like we do
Like we love to
And I will again, hehehe
I'll miss you, my dear Xiola

[Verse 1]
Three days was the morning
My focus three days old
My head, it landed
Into the sound of cricket bows, oh-oh
[Refrain]
I am a proud man anyway
Covered now by three days

[Verse 2]
Three ways was the morning
Three lovers in three ways
And we knew when she landed
Three days, she'd stay

[Refrain]
I am a proud man anyway
I'm covered now by three days

[Chorus]
We saw shadows of the morning light
Shadows of the evening sun
'Til the shadows and the lights were one
Shadows of the morning light
Shadows of the evening sun
'Til the shadow and the lights were one

[Verse 3]
True hunting's over
No herds to follow
Without game
Men prey on each other
Family weakens
By the bites we swallow
Oh-oh-oh
[Verse 4]
True leaders gone
Of the land and people
We choose no kin
But adopted strangers
Family weakens
By the lengths we travel
Oh-oh-oh

[Bridge]
All of us with wings, oh-oh
All of us with wings, oh-oh
All of us are with wings
All of us are with wings
With wings, all of us with wings
Go! Oh-oh

[Guitar Solo]

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
Erotic Jesus
Lays with his Marys
Loves his Marys
Bits of puzzle
Is fitting each other
[Refrain]
All now with wings

[Verse 6]
Oh, my Mary
Never wonder
Night is shelter
From nudity's shiver
From—

[Refrain]
All now with wings
One, two, three, four

[Interlude]
Yeah!
