+        (verse
+            "On the first part of the journey,
+            I was looking at all the life.
+            There were plants and birds and rocks and things
+            There was sand and hills and rings.
+            The first thing I met was a fly with a buzz
+            And the sky, with no clouds.
+            The heat was hot and the ground was dry
+            But the air was full of sound.")
+
+        (chorus
+            "I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
+            It felt good to be out of the rain.
+            In the desert, you can’t remember your name,
+            ’Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain.
+            La, la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la.
+            La, la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la.")
+
+        (verse
+            "After two days, in the desert sun,
+            My skin began to turn red.
+            After three days, in the desert fun
+            I was looking at a river bed.
+            And the story it told of a river that flowed
+            Made me sad to think it was dead.")
+
+        (chorus
+            "You see I’ve been through the desert on a horse with no name
+            It felt good to be out of the rain.
+            In the desert, you can’t remember your name,
+            ’Cause there ain’t no one for to give you no pain.
+            La, la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la.
+            La, la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la, la-la.")
+
+        (interlude)
+
+        (verse
+            "After nine days, I let the horse run free,
+            ’Cause the desert had turned to sea.
+            There were plants and birds and rocks and things
+            There was sand and hills and rings.
+            The ocean is a desert with its life underground
+            And a perfect disguise above.
+            Under the cities, lies a heart made of ground
+            But the humans will give no love.")
