Mindbender

While browsing through a pawnshop,
I saw this old guitar,
Its keys were bent and rusted,
its body scratched and scared…
Holy Moses!
Would you believe that guitar began to talk..?
I swear it is…
Now it started like a thinkin,
I wasn't stoned nor drinkin,
when I heard that talkin guitar say:
My daddy was a Gibson
my momma was a Fender…
That's why they call me,
Mindbender,
Mindbender…
That's my name…
You better believe it…
It was a mind bending thing..!
(solo 1)
I said: Now listen, guitar,
What you're tryin to do ?
People will think I'm crazy,
if they see me talkin to you ..!
He said: What's that you say?
I said: You'd better hold your tongue..!
Now it started like a thinkin,
I wasn't stoned nor drinkin,
when, I swear, I heard that guitar say:
My daddy was a Gibson
my momma was a Fender…
That's why they call me,
Mindbender, Mindbender…
That's my name, my name…
You'd better believe it, brother…
It was a mind bending thing…
(solo 2)
