[Anthony Moore]

ok, i know this is a shot in the dark, but i heard this on the classic rock/oldies station and have no ida who it is or the name of the song:

It sounds like the chorus starts with the vocalist saying "JUDY IN THE SKY"

at the end of the song it says something like "dont take my glasses" with some sort of distortion to his voice

any ideas? i know the melody, but cant really put it into words...

anyone help out?

It's Judy in Disguise performed by John Fred/Fraga and His Playboy Band not sure what year it was released I am guess around 1965 or so.

Hope this helps.

Yup... but closer to '68, I think... the lyrics are a hoot:

Judy in disguise, Well, that's what you are,
Lemonade pie with a brand new car.
Cantalope eyes come to me tonight
Judy in disguise with glasses.

Keep a-wearin' your bracelets, and your new rara,
Cross your heart with your living bra.
Chimney sweep sparrow with guise
Judy in disguise with glasses.

Come to me tonight, come to me tonight,
taking everything in sight, except for the strings on my kite.

Judy in disguise, well, what you aiming for,
A circus of horrors, yeah, well that's what you are.
You made me a life of ashes,
I guess I'll just take your glasses

thanks so much

seeing the lyrics like that makes it sound like a satire on Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds
