Island

Lyrics: Ken Nordine
Music: [none]

Recited by Ken Nordine during the "space" section of the Grateful Dead's performance on 11 March 1993.

I got me this island
That I'm calling me
Every time that I go there
You know who I see

You can see me in me
More often than not
And that's pretty often
It's my favorite spot

There are plenty of spots
Called other than me
But they're someone else's
One look and you'll see

You can try like a fool
To be what you're not
The island you get
Is the island you got
