Amnesia

[Verse 1]

It was a dark and stormy night

And the ship was rockin' on the open sea

Tossing and turning and rolling in our bunks

The first mate the boatswain and me

From Bristol to the Ivory Coast

Then on to Jamaica

Down in the hold there is no sound

We're taking rock n' roll to America

[Chorus]

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

[Verse 2]

The king of England waits in exile

In the crack fields of Bolivia

The burning white house, the shining path

Back to reconquer Americay

Eric Burdon stunned in Mississippi

On the Animal's US tour

Mardi gras Indian segregation

1964

[Chorus]

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

[Verse 3]

Up the river wah wah throbbing

Heavy artillery

Blackface painted floodlit jungle

Gringo military

Any old army high on drugs

Fighting the rock n' roll war

Truth justice and led zeppelin

Heavy metal marine corps...

[Chorus]

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember

Bless my soul what's wrong with me

I forgot to forget to remember
