Laurie Anderson - John Lilly lyrics
Now in this book there are a lot of stories about talking
animals: talking snakes, and birds,
and fish; and about people who try to communicate with them.
John Lilly, the guy who says he can talk to dolphins,
said he was in an aquarium and he was talking to a
big whale who was swimming around and around in his
tank. And the whale kept asking him questions telepathically.
And one of the questions the whale kept asking was:
do all oceans have walls?
You know, I've always thought that one of the most
serious defects of the human body was that you couldn'tLaurie Anderson - John Lilly - http://motolyrics.com/laurie-anderson/john-lilly-lyrics.html
close your ears. You can't point them anywhere or close
them, they just sort of hang there on the sides of
your head. But an acupuncturist explained to me that
the pressure points in the ears are very important
because the whole body is represented right there in
the ear. The ears, he said,
are vestigial fetuses, little versions of yourself,
one male and one female, and he showed me here's the
lobe, that's the miniature upside down head,
and this curve here is the spine,
and right here are the little genitals,
and that was when I went back to wearing hats.
