H-o-o-o-ld on there...
The melody and the guitar riff for Dazed & Confused were lifted from jake Holmes' 1967 original...
Only the lyrics were changed and the volume raised on the LZ version.
Here are the original lyrics (as I hear them...to the melody of..um..Dazed & Confused)
I'm dazed and confused since days ago
Am I being choosed, well I'd just like to know
Give me a clue as to where I am at
Feel like a mouse and you act like a cat
I'm dazed and confused, hangin' on by a thread
I'm being abused, I'd be better off dead
and I can't stand this teasin', I'm startin' to crack
If you're out to get me, you're on the right track
Yeah I'm dazed and confused and it's all upside down
Am I bein' choosed, do you want me around?
Secrets are fun to a certain degree
But this one's no fun 'cause its secret's on me.
