i can die with this song at the background…. so nice
One of my favorites song from Amon Düül II
I listened to this group in the 70's. I love the use of the mellotron, whic predated the synthesizer. Very innovateive group. Right up there with Pink Floyd. Their sound is really astounding. Thanks for posting.

amazing track and epic band.
Always good track to play someone who's never heard Amon Duul, so many dynamics!
You walk
Surrounded by the stars
For many days
And you knock
At the gates of night
No answer
But you walk in
With your decrees
And you go out
With shaking knees
A street-sweeper appears
Makes your dusty feet clean
Come and jump
On my Are-You-Tired machine
At sunrise
You play your violin
On Napoleon's nose
A cop comes and says
You're one of those
But you jump
Into the trumpet of a clown
And you say to yourself
Maybe I should leave this town?
You walk
Beside the twilight street
Jewel of the town
And you pass
The make-up zoo
Where hungry people meet
They ask you
And you give them
All you need
For a trip to the South
Maybe you think
What sort of idiot am I
Without a bone in my mouth
And you turn to the sunrise
You see a famous face
Behind a golden fence
A voice sounds round the corner:
"This is your very last chance!"
But you laugh
Like the son of a kangaroo
I don't believe the TV screen!
I don't believe you too!
Listened during college days. Forgotten how innovative their music was.
Blown minded

Best listened to either in the dark or with eyes closed, through good headphones, with volume high. Gives me shivers every time.
