about

A potent blend of songs about God, War & LSD delicately & seamlessly arranged to bring their individual messages across... 'Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds' by the Beatles, 'Sky Pilot' by Eric Burdon & the Animals and 'Big Sky' by the Kinks. Note that the 3 songs are from the late 60's when creativity seemed to rime naturally with questioning The Man in all his incarnations.

lyrics

LUCY IN THE SKY WITH DIAMONDS
Picture yourself in a boat on a river,
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies.
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly,
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Cellophane flowers of yellow and green,
Towering over your head.
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes,
And she's gone.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the...

SKY PILOT
Sky pilot.....sky pilot
How high can you fly
You'll never, never, never reach the sky

He blesses the boys as they stand in line
The smell of gun grease and the bayonets they shine
He's there to help them all that he can
To make them feel wanted he's a good holy man

In the morning they return
With tears in their eyes
The stench of death drifts up to the skies

A soldier so ill looks at the sky pilot
Remembers the words
"Thou shalt not kill"

Sky pilot.....sky pilot
How high can you fly
You never, never, never reach...BIG SKY

Big sky looked down on all the people looking up at the big sky.
Everybody pushing one another around
Big sky feels sad when he sees the children scream and cry
But the big sky's too big to let it get him down.

Big sky too big to cry
Big sky too high to see
People like you and me

One day well be free, we wont care, just you see
Til that day can be, don't let it get you down

The girl with kaleidoscope eyes.

Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,
Lucy in the sky with diamonds,

BOOTIK MOOSIK Montreal, Québec

BEST COVER ALBUMS OF ALL TIME tag was tongue in cheek...
Then we started listening to others & began to wonder ;)

4 Montreal seasoned musicians have their way with classics songs & bands of the 60's & 70's, then begin composing...

They decided to start small.
A mini rock opera about God & his minions...
