ARNOLD LAYNE

Arnold Layne had a strange hobby
Collecting clothes, moonshine washing lines
They suit him fine

On the wall hang a tall mirror
Distorted view, see through, baby blue
He got it

Oh Arnold Layne, it's not the same
It takes two to know, two to know,
Two to know, two to know
Why can't you see

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne
Arnold Layne

Now he's caught a nasty sort of person
They gave him time, doors bang chaingang
He hate it

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne
Arnold Layne,
Arnold Layne don't do it again

INTERSTELLAR OVERDRIVE

Инструментальная композиция

 


SEE EMILY PLAY

Emily tries but misunderstands
She's often inclined to borrow
Somebody's dreams till tomorrow

There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll loose your mind and play
Free games for May
See Emily play

Soon after dark Emily cries
Gazing through trees in sorrow
Hardly a sound till tomorrow

Put on a gown that trouches the ground
Float on a river
Forever and ever
Emily, Emily

REMEMBER A DAY

Remember a day before today
A day when you were young
Free to play along with time
Evening never comes

Sing song that can't be sung
Without the morning's kiss
Queen you shall be if you wish
Look for your king

Why can't we play today?
Why can't we stay that way?

Climb your favourite apple tree
Try to catch the sun
Hide from your little brother's gun
Dream yourself away

Why can't we reach the sun?
Why can't we blow the years away?
Blow away


PAINT BOX

Last night I had too much to drink
Sitting in a club with so many fools
Playing to rules
Trying to impress and feeling rather empty
I had another drink

What a way to spend that evening
You don't turn up with their friends
Playing the game
There in the scene or I should have been
Far away

Getting up, I feel so bad
Remembering what's been before?
I open the door to an empty room
Then I forget

The telephone rings and someone speaks
She would very much like to go
Out to a show
So what can I do, I can't think what to say
She sees through anyway

Out of the front door I go
Traffic's moving rather slow
Arriving late
There she waits looking very angry
As cross as she can be


JULIA DREAM

Sunlight bright upon my pillow
Lighter than an eiderdown
Wishing that the weeping-willow
Winds its branches round

Julia dream
Dream that queen
Queen of all my dreams

Every night I turn the light out
Waiting for the velvet blind
Will the scaly armadillo
Find me where I'm hiding

Will the misty master break me
Will the key unclock my mind
Will the following fortsteps catch me
Am I realy dying

CAREFUL WITH THAT AXE, EUGENE

Инструментальная композиция


CIRRUS MINOR

In a churchyard by a river
Lazing in the haze of midday
Laughing in the grasses and the graves

Yellow bird you are not lone
In signing and in flying on
In laughing and in leaving

Willow weeping in the water
Waving to the river-daughters
Swaying in the ripples and the reeds

On a trip to Cirrus Minor
Saw a crater in the sun
A thousand miles of moonlight later


THE NILE SONG

I was standing by the Nile
When I saw the lady smile
I would take her out for a while, for a while
Like tears that like a child
How her golden hair was blowing wild
Then she spread her wings to fly, for to fly
Soaring high above the breezes
Going always where she pleases

She will make it to the island in the sun
I will follow her in her shadow
And I'll watch her from my window
One day I will catch her

She is calling from the deep
Summoning my soul to endless sleep
She is bound to drag me down, drag me down.


BIDING MY TIME

Wasting my time, resting my mind
And I'll never pine for the sad days
And the bad days
When we was working from nine to five

And if you don't mind
I'll spend my time here by the fireside
In the warm light of the love in her eyes

BIKE

I've got a bike, you can ride it if you like
It's got a basket, a bell that rings
And things to make it look good
I'd give it to you if I could
But I borrowed it

You're the kind of girl
That fits in with my world
I'll give you anything, everything
If you want a thing

I've got a cloak, it's a bit of a joke
There's a tear up the front,
It's red and black
I've had it for months
If you think it could look good
Then I guess it should

I know a mouse and he hasn't got a house
I don't know why I call him Gerald
He's getting rather old but he's a good mouse

I've got a clan of gingerbread men
Here a man, there a man,
Lots of gingerbread men
Take a couple if you wish, they're on the dish

I know a room of musical tunes
Some wine, some gin,
Most of them are clock work
Let's go into the other room
And make them work
