The Chambers Brothers' Time Has Come Today'; "My soul has been psychedelicized"

Sometimes I think Prince likes to steal his best stuff. I was just playing The Chambers Brothers' Time Has Come Today' and while I was checking up on back-ups, I heard something familiar...

"And my soul has been psychedelicized?" And sung with the words 'has been' mumbled, it comes off as Soul Psychodelicide... funny.

Whaddayathink? Coincidence or isprired by?

Time has come today
Young hearts can go their way
Can't put it off another day
I don't care what others say
They say we don't listen anyway
Time has come today
(Hey)

Oh
The rules have changed today (Hey)
I have no place to stay (Hey)
I'm thinking about the subway (Hey)
My love has flown away (Hey)
My tears have come and gone (Hey)
Oh my Lord, I have to roam (Hey)
I have no home (Hey)
I have no home (Hey)

Now the time has come (Time)
There's no place to run (Time)
I might get burned up by the sun (Time)
But I had my fun (Time)
I've been loved and put aside (Time)
I've been crushed by the tumbling tide (Time)
And my soul has been psychedelicized (Time)

(Time)
Now the time has come (Time)
There are things to realize (Time)
Time has come today (Time)
Time has come today (Time)

Time [x11]

Oh
Now the time has come (Time)
There's no place to run (Time)
I might get burned up by the sun (Time)
But I had my fun (Time)
I've been loved and put aside (Time)
I've been crushed by tumbling tide (Time)
And my soul has been psychedelicized (Time)

(Time)
Now the time has come (Time)
There are things to realize (Time)
Time has come today (Time)
Time has come today (Time)

Time [x4]
Yeah

I always disagree with the stealing concept...as we are all one family being fed the same ideas by The Hierarchy...We are who we are through Grace.

I love these lyrics though.

Is why I used the words 'inspired by'.

And true, the song is great.

Isn't there an uncredited Chambers Brothers sample in 'Thieves In The Temple'?

I think it's that harmonica sound.
