Analysis of Excuse Me While I Kiss The sky



Jimi was crazy in his days of purple haze
 Getting tossed with the sauce
 As a mouse is stuck in its maze
 Had screaming sounds with his guitar
 He was a shooting star
 Never will there ever be a man quite like Jimi
 He was willing to achieve
 With hey Joe where you going with that gun in your hand

I hope society today will live to understand
 Playing his guitar with his tongue
 This may have frightened a tender hearted nun but it was all in fun
 Cross town traffic was fantastic
 He had a heart of gold
 To bad he had to die
 Jimi was the man with plan

Hopefully someday everyone will understand ?
