Black sails knifing through the pitchblende night
Away from the radioactive landmass madness
From the silver-suited people searching out
Uncontaminated food and shelter on the shores
No glowing metal on our ship of wood only
Free happy crazy people naked in the universe
WE SPEAK EARTH TALK
GO RIDE THE MUSIC
If you smile at me you know I will understand
Cause that is something everybody everywhere does
In the same language
I can see by your coat my friend that you're from the other side
There's just one thing I got to know
Can you tell me please who won
You must try some of my purple berries
I been eating them for six or seven weeks now
Haven't got sick once
Probably keep us both alive
Wooden ships on the water very free and easy
Easy you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
Very free and easy
Sail away where the mornin sun goes high
Sail away where the wind blows sweet and young birds fly
Take a sister by her hand
Lead her far from this barren land
Horror grips us as we watch you die
All we can do is echo your anguished cry and
Stare as all you human feelings die
We are leaving
You don't need us
Go and take a sister by her hand
Lead her far from this foreign land
Somewhere where we might laugh again
We are leaving
You don't need us
Sailing ships on the water very free and easy
Easy you know the way it's supposed to be
Silver people on the shoreline leave us be
Very free
And gone
NO C'MON
GO RIDE THE MUSIC
C'MON RIDE IT CHILD

Jefferson Airplane è un gruppo rock statunitense formatosi a San Francisco nel 1965. Considerati uno dei pilastri del movimento psichedelico degli anni '60, hanno contribuito in modo significativo alla musica e al clima culturale della Summer of Love. Il loro album più famoso, *Surrealistic Pillow* (1967), contiene il singolo di successo «Somebody to Love», che li ha lanciati sulla scena nazionale. Altri brani rappresentativi includono «White Rabbit» e «Volunteers». La band è stata caratterizzata da un sound innovativo che mescolava rock psichedelico, folk e blues, con testi spesso ispirati a temi sociali e spirituali. Tra i membri più noti si ricordano Grace Slick (voce), Marty Balin (voce) e Jorma Kaukonen (chitarra). Dopo una serie di successi negli anni '60, la band ha attraversato periodi di crisi e cambiamenti di formazione, fino al suo scioglimento nel 1972. Nel corso degli anni, Jefferson Airplane è stato riconosciuto come uno dei gruppi più influenti della storia del rock.
