Baron von Tollbooth / Your Mind Has Left Your Body


Baron von Tollbooth / Your Mind Has Left Your Body

Thank goodness it is Friday

Baron von Tollbooth & the Chrome Nun is an album by Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, and David Freiberg from Jefferson Airplane. The album was released at the same time as Thirty Seconds Over Winterland. All the members of Jefferson Airplane make an appearance on the album, but on most of the tracks Jerry Garcia of the Grateful Dead performs lead guitar and Chris Ethridge of the Flying Burrito Brothers performs bass.

Notes: The album was recorded during November and December 1972.

The original release had a single sheet insert with musician information for each song. The lyrics and credits information was on the inner sleeve. It is well worth searching out an LP copy of this album for the full size artwork on the insert and inner and outer sleeves.

Baron Von Tollbooth & The Chrome Nun were nicknames given to Kantner and Slick by David Crosby.

Grace Slick - piano, vocals

Paul Kantner Your Mind Has Left Your Body lyrics

Lyrics & Music: Paul Kantner
You have left your body be aware if you care
Your mind has left your body and for this one moment you are
Under the polar ice cap in a place we call home
How is it there white bear like that where you grow...
Now all of you come back to here and now elsewhen to there
Move on out the other way where...
Do you find yourself floating growing there

Chorus
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow let it grow
You can exercise your mind on where you want to go
And y'can see the city lights flashin' two thousand miles below you
You can feel the sands of Zanzibar or pierce the nearest sun
Find out what and who you are and if you need to run

Chorus
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow let it grow
There is one moment in your life and it can come at any time
And you remember all of what went on from the instant you were born
Thru your early years
And if you can fasten on that moment and expand thru the afterglow
You can reverse your mind in time and travel back to when
The earth was formed
The sky was born
And the universe began

Chorus
Riders of the rainbow
Let it grow let it grow
You have left your body
Return when you may
Save it for another day... beyond you
