Reviews
The opening salvo of Tim Buckley's psychedelic masterpiece Goodbye and Hello, "No Man Can Find the War" is a multi-layered psychedelic masterpiece. First premiered on the Leonard Bernstein CBS television special Inside Pop: The Rock Revolution, this song is one of the strongest anti-Vietnam War statements of the psychedelic era. Some slightly dated sonic explosion sound effects pepper the track, yet it remains a great, low-key psychedelic protest song.

Lyrix
Photographs of guns and flame
Scarlet skull and distant game
Bayonet and jungle grin
Nightmares dreamed by bleeding men
Lookouts tremble on the shore
But no man can find the war
Tape recorders echo scream
Orders fly like bullets stream
Drums and cannons laugh aloud
Whistles come from ashen shroud
Leaders damn the world and roar
But no man can find the war
Is the war across the sea?
Is the war behind the sky?
Have you each and all gone blind?
Is the war inside your mind?
Humans weep at human death
All the talkers lose their breath
Movies paint a chaos tale
Singers see and poets wail
All the world knows the score
But no man can find the war |
