Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind.
Dead kings, many things I can't define.
Occasions, persuasions clutter your mind
Incense and peppermints, the color of time.
Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win, but nothing to lose.
Incense and peppermints, meaningless nouns.
Turn on, tune in, turn your eyes around.
Look at yourself, look at yourself, - Yeah, yeah.
Look at yourself, look at yourself,
Yeah, yeah, Yeah, yeah.
To divide the cockeyed world in two
Throw your pride to one side, the least you can do.
Beatniks and politics, nothing is new.
A yard stick for lunatics, one part of you.
Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win, but nothing to lose.
Good sense, innocence, cripplin' mankind.
Dead kings, many things I can't define.
Occasions, persuassions clutter your mind
Incense and peppermints, the color of time.
Who cares what games we choose?
Little to win, but nothing to lose.
Incense, peppermints, incense, peppermints.
Sha-la-la, sha-la-la (3x)

Thank you, my friend SGT John " Mac " McConnell for sharing the music video of Randy Seol of the Strawberry Alarm Clock performing Incense & Peppermints sometime in the 1970's or 1980's. Greg Munford who was a 16-year-old singer with a group called The Shapes sang lead on the b-side record but was never formally credited.
This is still a wonderful song IMHO which hearkens back to the peaceful psychedelic music days :-)
Here is a video of how I remember them performing this classic upbeat song back in 1967.

The original drummer quit by 1965 and was replaced by Randy Seol as drummer, singer of this song and songwriter.
