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
That was written in the 60's in the "cycodelic" times im sure ppl understood. The question is was that hard for you?? Listen to the song while your on acid and tell me it makes no sense... There are more drug referances in that song that mainly pertain to that era that are of little use today. Now we use dialated eyes as apposed to other sayings that would have been common knowlege in the 60's.

People today are more simple minded and easier to please. Show me the average family in the 60's with a TV remote.. PPL thought more then and now we have nothing to think of....
