Songtexte: The Byrds. The Notorious Byrd Brothers. Artificial Energy.

Sitting all alone now, I took my ticket to ride
Just a matter of time now 'til I'll be up in the sky
Coming up on me now, I'm king for a night
What's it gonna be now, how willful things are building insight

Do you think it's really the trip that you seek?
I've got my doubts it's happened to me

Artificial energy is racing in my mind
I've got a strange feeling, I'm going to die before my time
I'm coming down off amphetamines
And I'm in jail 'cause I killed the queen
