+ (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.")

+
+ (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.")
