" Mamma told me not to come " by The Three Dog Night in 1970 .
" Want some whiskey in your water, sugar in your tea. What's all these crazy questions you're asking me. This is the craziest party that could ever be. Don't turn on the lights cause I don't want to see.
Mamma told me not to come. That ain't the way to have fun. Open up the window, let some air into this room. Think I'm almost choking from the smell of stale perfume. And that cigarette you're smoking scare me half to death. Open up the window sucker, let me catch my breath.
The radio was blasting, someone's knocking at the door. I'm looking at my girlfriend, she's passed out on the floor. I've seen so many things I ain't never seen before. Don't know what it is I don't want to see no more.
1970: Camera : Nikon Photomic Ftn with 135mm f/2.8 Nikkor lens and Professional MS motion picture 35mm film(ASA 50 rated at 80) processed in E-3 (light reversal) developer.
This is original untouched color. The exposure was 1/60th of a second at f/11... handheld.
