Strawberry Alarm Clock - Sit With The Guru Lyrics

My favourite Strawberry Alarm Clock song. Way better than Incense and Peppermints imo. 🌬🎵☮♎🔯♈♊☯️

Clearly you haven't heard Incense and Peppermints properly lmao. This song is great but not that great.

i’m a sophomore in high school, and no one in my grade understands how good this issssss. strawberry alarm clock is legit of the most underrated bands ever

Where's my incense?....TJ STRUSKA

My Strawberry Alarm Clock says 4:20

Love this song i have the anthology with 18 songs including this one. I love the psychedelic sound. As it was part of the meditation thing.

This is mind expanding as is barefoot in baltimore

RIP Ed King...…..

High high where eagles fly, leave today untouched in the sky

early tool lol

Life's created, automated
Yesterday's invalidated
Hip mankind on, turn your mind on
Sit with the guru (guru, guru)
Meditation, ooh
High, high where eagles fly
Leave today untouched in the sky
Stretch out your mind to humanity
How many tomorrows can you see?

Good life livin', party givin'
No one walks who can be driven
Blunt the starkness, light the darkness
Sit with the guru (guru, guru)
Meditation, ooh
High, high where eagles fly
Leave today untouched in the sky
Stretch out your mind to humanity
How many tomorrows can you see?
How many tomorrows can you see?

Pussy willows, dew-kissed pillows
Silver cloud puffs up and billows
Full potential, transcendental
Sit with the guru (guru, guru)
Meditation, ooh
High, high where eagles fly
Leave today untouched in the sky
Stretch out your mind to humanity
How many tomorrows can you see?
How many tomorrows can you see?

Love the song. during the transcendental meditation era. I love all their music.

For some reason this song is beautiful but scary at the same time ....

really dated stuff

The new music since Madonna has been garbage that's when it started. And has been going downhill ever since.

"Life's created, automated, yesterday's invalidated".

That's what is happening, and a good way to simply explain the "Mandela Effect".

the hippies sang about this time we're in 50 years ago... The age of bullshit...

I can sit here and come up with some bullshit theory that thousands would believe in just because it explains a malfunction in memory.

High high where eagles fly....Sweet it’s meditation time😁

RIP Ed King

Which year is this?

Henry Martinez 1968

This bass player is so sophisticated.Its hard to believe that all these band members are as young as they are,when this was recorded.They must have had handlers.The keyboardist said they had a choir choreographer,who coached them.

A talent band

Still have all their 45's. Love them as much now as then! This sounds so damn good!

Que significa blunt the starkness y silver clouds puffs up and billows ?

Saludos desde Perú !

Love all of this music. In my day it was considered "heavy" ... in reality it's innocent bubblegum. Love it all.

Heavy was the DC5's debut album and The Sonics.

I mean, it’s not a far leap from SAC to Iron Butterfly, and from there Zeppelin and Sabbath. It’s a very odd series of influences considering very little modern metal is anything like this.

Yes absolutely

On this day in 1968 {May 25th} the Strawberry Alarm Clock performed "Sit With The Guru" on the Dick Clark ABC-TV network Saturday-afternoon program 'American Bandstand'...
Two months earlier on March 10th, 1968 the song entered Billboard's Hot Top 100 chart at position #75; two weeks later it would peak at #65 {for 2 weeks} and it spent 5 weeks on the Top 100...
The West Coast sextet had four other Top 100 records; "Incense and Peppermint" {#1 for 1 week in 1967}, "Tomorrow" {#23 in 1968}, "Barefoot In Baltimore" {#67 in 1968}, and a cover version of "Good Morning Starshine" from the musical 'Hair' {#87 in 1969}...
Group member John Carter passed away on June 10th, 2011 at the age of 65; he composed "Incense and Peppermint"...
May he R.I.P.

Takes me back to the golden era of the 60s....world was so innocent...

Finally saw an indian who listens to this song 🤗

I'm high high where eagles fly!

Wow, you sound really talented! 🙄

I love that part high high where eagles fly. The background singers and the stereo affect is excellent. Listen to it with headphones.

How many tomorrows can YOU see?

Many tomorrow's

@Desmond Sandoz 🌄

the lead guitar sounds so fun

songs like this make me want to live in a field of daisy's on lsd forever just living free with all my buddy's ... . freedom I've lived the truth thanks ♡♡

+Tony Harris peace,love and happiness with a touch of lsd lol

a tab & 420, baby.

Yes definitely flower power. I love all the music from summer of love.

Love psychedelic music i never took L.S.D.

Haven't heard this since 1970-thanks for posting this gem!

Great song! And have I mentioned that Randy Seol is extremely underrated as drummers go?

I always thought so my self of course not to many people have even heard of sac let alone any material past Incense and Peppermints hes great if listen i wish these guys could of done some more work

And as far as people go...

Wow, I haven't heard this since 1970 when I was 13, it's unusual to experience that. I remembered the words and sometimes I'd even mindlessly hum it while sitting in traffic not sure where or when I picked it up. It must of been the flip side of a 45 record. Thanks for the time travel RB, it meant a lot. JD

this is what i fear being a younger individual. like i hate the idea of forgetting yourself.

this is for the following at CUMC Lincoln, NE, Wed. night bites: J dynamite shorty esom / big mike m. / M.W. /M.B. 

I was born 17 years after the fact, but I dig it :-)

it's like the guy is talking quickly and nonchalantly, but also singing. this recording online sounds heavier

i listened to this song on record, in person, and the vocals sound thinner, like there really is one guy singing (with a slightly higher pitched, crisp, light voice). that high pitched oohing and aahing doesn't really exist on the record that I listened to. it's just simply the guy's voice. why is that so?

No matter what mood I am in or what time it is ,I can always listen to this song , This song takes a hold of you ,hard to let go , One of the few songs that will do this.

Que buenas canciones tienen estos batos !

How many tomorrow's can you see...

i can taste sound! and hear taste! wow i love lsd hello guru

Nothing describes how awesome this song is.

This song = happiness. And acid.

Absolutely mind-melting -- the next best thing to a year in an ashram. The only thing that comes close is Dicey and Paprika's version of "Edge of Seventeen."

"Wake Up... It's Tomorrow" is the best album from SAC!!

FlashTV yep. It's my personal favorite. Especially The Black Butter Trilogy

feels rainy <3

How many tomorrows can you see?

this is the song to listen to when you have no one around and your still high

org95 too accurate

@gdphantomkilla high high where eagles fly.

Me gusta mucho esta cancion "sientate con el guru" yeah :D

As DICK CLARK of American Bandstand fame would say,I'll give it an 85 score!
Great beat,nice instrumentation and vocals.Very catchy and appropriate for the
times.I think Strawberry Alarm Clock were very underrated.

@sexyeyes1969 those drugs were never abused :/

I grew up in this psychedelic era. It was interesting to experince the music the styles the attitudes then.
I never abused myself with drugs just got high on the music was enough for me..........

how many tomorrows can you see?
