Charlie T travels in my mind
His words on paper create signs
Once I heard him in the Village
Sounded like a communist farmer
Protesting, strumming with rage
War has killed his brother
Charlie T travels in our mind
His words on paper create signs
He fought for Civil Rights
Never missed a celebration
His voice was all he got
With the King’s revolution
Charlie T travels in my mind
His words on paper create signs
Like a mouse trapped by a cat
Charlie T was persecuted
He wore a lightbulb as a hat
That was his only secret
Charlie T travels in your mind
His words on paper create signs
On a rainy day he took the road
On the back of his bike
Why did he take it ?
Now he’s off the road
Lying on his back.
Charlie T travels in your mind
His words on paper create signs
He typed for days on his machine
Seeking the right expression
His poems were seen as obscene
Never liked this kind of reaction
Charlie T travels in our mind
His words on paper create signs
Charlie T was friend with Jesus
Spent time in another land
He acted like a genius
Buried us under sand
Charlie T travels in our mind
His words on paper create signs
CHARLIE T
