2401 Lyrics
There's a hero living at 2401 and all around
A family circus in the sun
Got his Mothers working
While you're having fun
Trying to change the system
Many things that must be done
Where did Moon go?
Better call at GTO
In the red room
Pam is planning where to go
Gail and Pauline
Who is prowling round your door?
A maniac, The Raven
Could he have his gun back?
No! 2401, got myself a place to stay
On the railroad, Kansas nearer every day
Miss Christine cooking
Looking very gay
How do you say a Thank You?
How do you ever tear yourself away?
A family circus in the sun
Got his Mothers working
While you're having fun
Many things that must be done
Where did Moon go?
Better call at GTO
Pam is planning where to go
Gail and Pauline
Who is prowling round your door?
Could he have his gun back?
No! 2401, got myself a place to stay
On the railroad, Kansas nearer every day
Looking very gay
How do you say a Thank You?
How do you ever tear yourself away?

I'm a believer that John Mayall was making a song that had mention of many 60's songs from artists that lived in the Laural Canyon area of California; Frank Zappa, Birds, Monkees, Mama and Papas, and others, as sort of a Thank-you to 'them'. The song 2401 also tells how these songs are changing society....making those who listen to the 60's lyrics better people.
@Rapidrickone Don't forget "The GTO's" John didn't. FYI, 2401 was Zappas address on Laurel Cyn. Bl. Moon, is Frank's daughter, Etc.
