Unsheathed the babies not screamin enough, the singers not singing enough, Ramanas not breathing to us, behold the unsheathing, it's love, the blade is not ready to cut, it's dull from out thinking, it's rough free love is a world I can't linger too long in, free love was just another party for the hippies to ruin, behold the unsheathing, it's love, behold the unsheathing, it's love free love is a knife through the jugular vein son, free love, I can't afford to add up what you f***ers are made of, free love is a world that I can't linger too long in, free love was just another party for the hippies to ruin. yyyyyyyyyyeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!
