1983 -- Jimi Hendrix



Hurray I awake from yesterday  Alive but the war is here to stay
So my love catherina and me  Decide to take our last walk thru the noise to the sea
Not to die but to be reborn  Away from the lands so battred and torn  Forever forever

Oh say can you see it’s really such a mess  Every inch of earth is a fighting nest
Giant pencil and lipstick-tube shaped things  Continue to rain and cause screamin’ pain
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red  As our feet find the sand
And the sea is straight ahad  Straight up ahead

Well it’s too bad that our friends can’t be with us today  Well it’s too bad
The machine that we built   Would never save us that’s what they say
That’s why they ain’t comin’ with us today  And they also said it’s impossible
For a man to live and breathe undrerwater  Forever was a main complaint
Yeah and they also threw this in my face they said  Anyway you know good and well
It would be beyond the will of god  And the grace of the king  Grace of the king

So my darling and I make love in the sand   To salute the last moment ever on dry land
Our machine it has done it’s work played it’s part well  Without a scratch on our body

 when we bid it farewell  Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile
Before our heads go under we take our last look at the killing noise  Of the out of style
The out of style out of style oh yeah  


So down and down and down and down we go  Hurry my darlin’ we mustn’t be late
For the show   Neptune champion games to an aqua world is so my dear
Right this way smiles a mermaid   I can hear atlantis full of cheer
Atlantis full of cheer  I can hear atlantis full of cheer



In this song, Hendrix sings about how he wants to escape the war-torn world and all the horrible things going on  and be reborn as a merman using a machine, which is probably drugs. He decides to leave "the out of style" to their destructive ways and live underwater.
