Astronomy Domine.

(Barrett)

Lime and limpid green the second scene

the fights between the bleu you once knew

floating down the sound resounds

around the icy waters underground.

Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon there on the run

Titanian, Neptune, Titan, stars can frighten.

Winding signs flap

flicker flicker flicker flam pow pow

stairways scared and death rules there

blindman limpid green the sound

surrounds the icy waters on the

lime and limpid green the sound

surrounds the icy waters underground.

See Emily Play.

(Barrett)

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 today

see Emily play.

Soon after dark Emily cries

gazing trough trees in sorrow

hardly a sound till tomorrow.

Put on a gown that touches the ground

float on a river

for ever and ever

Emily, Emily.

There is no other day...

The Happiest Days Of Our Lives.

(Waters)

When we grew up and went to school

There were certain teachers who would

Hurt the children any way they could

By pouring their derision

Upon anything we did

And exposing every weakness

However carefully hidden by the kids

But in the town it was well known

When they got home at night, their fat and

Psycopathic wives would thrash them

Within inches of their lives.

Another Brick In The Wall (part 2).

(Waters)

We don't need no education

We don't need no thought control

No dark sarcasm in the classroom

Teachers leave the kids alone

Hey teacher leave us kids alone

All in all it's just another brick in the wall

All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

We don't need no education

We don't need no thought control

No dark sarcasm in the classroom

Teachers leave the kids alone

Hey teacher leave us kids alone

All in all you're just another brick in the wall

All in all you're just another brick in the wall.

Echoes.

(Gilmour, Mason, Waters, Wright).

Overhead the albatross hangs motionless upon the air

And deep beneath the rolling waves

In labyrinths of coral caves

The echo of a distant time

Comes willowing across the sand

And everything is green and submarine.

And no-one showed us to the land

And no-one knows the where or whys

But something stirs and something tries

And starts to climb towards the light.

Strangers passing in the street

By chance two separate glances meet

And I am you and what I see is me

And do I take you by the hand

And lead you through the land

And help me understand the best I can.

And no-one calls us to move on

And no-one forces down our eyes

And no-one speaks and no-one tries

And no-one flies around the sun.

Cloudless everyday you fall upon my waking eyes

Inviting and inciting me to rise

And through the window in the wall

Come streaming in on sunlight wings

A million bright ambassadors of morning.

And no-one sings me lullabies

And no-one makes me close my eyes

And so I throw the windows wide

And call to you across the sky.

Hey You.

(Waters)

Hey you ! out there in the cold

Getting lonely, getting old, can you feel me

Hey you ! Standing in the aisles

With itchy feet and fading smiles, can you feel me

Hey you ! don't help them to bury the light

Don't give in without a fight.

Hey you ! out there on your own 

sitting naked by the phone would you touch me

Hey you ! with your ear against the wall 

Waiting for someone to call out would you touch me

Hey you ! would you help me to carry the stone

Open your heart, I'm coming home.

But it was only a fantasy

The wall was too high as you can see

No matter how he tried he could not break free 

And the worms ate into his brain.

Hey you ! out there on the road

Doing what you're told, can you help me

Hey you ! out there beyond the wall

Breaking bottles in the hall, can you help me 

Hey you ! don't tell me there's no hope at all 

Together we stand, divided we fall.

Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun.

(Waters)

Little by little the night turns around

counting the leaves wich tremble in the dawn

notices leaning on each other and yearning

under the leaves the swallow is resting.

Set the controls for the heart of the sun.

On to the mountain watching the Watcher

breaking the darkness, breaking the grapevine

the moment your flaw is run to your shadow

notice the shadow that reopens the vine.

Set the controls for the heart of the sun,

heart of the sun.

Breaking the shape of his questions for ever

when the sun will fall in the evening

will he remember the lesson I gave him.

Set the controls for the heart of the sun,

heart of the sun.

Money.

(Waters)

Money, get away

get a good job with more pay and you're O.K.

money, it's a gas

grab that cash with both hands and make a stash

new car, caviar, four star daydream

think I'll buy me a football team.

Money, get back

I'm alright, Jack, keep your hands off my stack

money, it's a hit

don't give me that do goody good bullshit

I'm in the hi-fidelity first class travelling set

and I think I need a Lear jet.

Money, it's a crime

share it fairlybut don't take a slice of my pie

money, so they say

is the root of all evil today

but if you ask for a rise it's no surprise that they're

giving none away, away, away.

Keep Talking.

(Gilmour, Wright, Samson)

For millions of years mankind lived just like animals

Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination

We learned to talk.

There's a silence surrounding me

I can't seem to think straight

I'LL sit in the corner

No one can bother me

I think I should speak now

My words won't come out right

I feel like I'm drowning

I'm feeling week now

But I can't show my weakness

I sometimes wonder

Where do we go from me

It doesn't have to be like this

All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

Why won't you talk to me

You never talk to me

What are you thinking

What are you feeling

Why won't you talk to me

You never talk to me

What are you thinking

Where do we go from here

It doesn't have to be like this

All we need to do is make sure we keep talking

Why won't you talk to me

You never talk to me

What are you thinking

What are you feeling

Why won't you talk to me

You never talk to me

What are you thinking

What are you feeling

I feel like I'm drowing

You know I can't breathe now

We're going nowhere

We're going nowhere.

Sheep.

(Waters)

Harmlessly passing your time in the grassland away,

only dimly aware of a certain unease in the air

You better watch out, there may be dogs about.

I've looked over Jordan, and I have seen things are not what they seem.

What do you get for pretending the dangers not real.

Meek and obedient you follow the leader

down well trodden corridors, into the valley of steel.

What a surprise! A look of terminal shock in your eyes.

Now things are really what they seem. No, this is no bad dream.

The Lord is my shepherd. I shall not want He makes me down to lie.

Through pastures green He leadeth me the silent waters by.

With bright knives He releaseth my soul.

He maketh me to hang on hooks in high places.

He converteth me to lamb cutlets.

For lo, He hath great power, and great hunger.

When cometh the day we lowly ones,

trough quiet reflection and great dedication,

master the art of karate,

lo, we shall rise up,

and then we'll make the buggers eyes water.

Bleating and babbling I fell on his neck with a sream.

Wave upon wave of demented avengers

march cheerfully out of obscurity unto the dream.

Have you heard the news? The dogs are dead!

You better stay home and do as you're told,

get out of the road if you want to grow old.

Sorrow.

(Gilmour)

The sweet smell of a great sorrow lies over the land

plumes of smoke rise and merge into the leaden sky:

a man lies and dreams of green fields and rivers

but awakes to a morning with no reason for waking.

He's haunted by the memory of a lost paradise

in his youth or a dream, he can't be precise

he's chained forever to a world that's departed

It's not enough, It's not enough.

His blood has frozen & curled with fright

his knees have trembled & given way in the night

his hand has weakened at the moment of truth

his step has faltered.

One world, one soul

Time pass, the river roll.

And he talks to the river of lost love and dedication

and silent replies that swirl invitation

flow dark and troubled to any oily sea

a grim intimation of what is to be.

There's an unceasing wind that blows through this night

and there's dust in my eyes, that blinds my sight

and silence that speaks so much louder than words

of promises broken.

Shine On You Crazy Diamond (parts 1-7).

(Gilmour, Waters, Wright)

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom,

blown on the steel breeze.

Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger,

you legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Treatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.

Shine on you crazy diamond.

Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,

rode on the steel breeze.

Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter,

you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Time.

(Mason, Waters, Wright, Gilmour)

Ticking away the moments that make up a dull day

You fritter and waste the hours in an offhand way

Kicking around on a piece of ground in your home town

Waiting for someone or something to show you the way.

Tired of lying in the sunshine

Staying home to watch the rain

And you are young and life is long

And there is time to kill today

And then one day you find

Ten years have got behind you

No one told you when to run

You missed the starting gun.

And you run, and you run to catch up with the sun, but it's sinking

Racing around to come up behind you again

The sun is the same in a relative way, but you're older

Shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter

Never seem to find the time

Plans that either come to nought

Or half a page of scribbled lines

Hanging on in quiet desparation is the English way

The time is gone

The song is over

Thought I'd something more to say.

Home, home again

I like to be here when I can

When I come home cold and tired

It's good to warm my bones beside the fire

Far away across the field

The tolling of the iron bell

Calls the faithful to their knees

To hear the softly spoken magic spells.

The Fletcher Memorial Home.

(Waters)

Take all your overgrown infants away somewhere

And build them a home

A lttle place of their own

The fletcher memorial home for incurable tyrants and kings

And they can appear tothemselves every day

On closed circuit tv

To make sure they're still real

It's the only connection they feel

"Ladies and Gentelmen, please welcome

Reagan and haig, mr. begin and friends

Mrs. Thatcher and Paisley, Mr. Brezhnev and party

The gost of McCarthy

The memories of Nixon

And now adding colour a group of anonymous Latin American

Meat packing glitterati"

Did they expect us to treat them with any respect.

They can polish their medals and sharpen their smiles

And amuse themselves playing games for a while

Boom boom, bang bang, lie down you're dead

Safe in the permanent gaze of a gold glass eye

Their favourite toy

They'll be good girls and boys

In the fletcher memorial home for colonial wasters of life and limb.

Is everyone in?

Are you having a nice time?

Now the final solution can be applied.

Comfortably Numb.

(Gilmour, Waters)

Hello,

Is there anybody in there

Just nod if you can hear me

Is there anyone at home

Come on now 

I hear you're feeling down

I can ease your pain

And get you on your feet again

Relax

I'll need some information first

Just the basic facts

Can you show me where it hurts.

There is no pain, you are receding

A distant ship smoke on the horizon

You are coming through in waves

Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying

When I was a child I had a fever

My hands felt just like two balloons

Now I've got that feeling once again

I can't explain, you would not understand

This is not how I am 

I have become comfortably numb.

O.K. 

Just a little pin prick

There'll be no more aaaaaaaah! 

But you may feel a little sick

Can you stand up?

I do belive it's working, good

That'll keep you going through the show 

Come on it's time to go.

There is no pain you are receding 

A distant ship smoke on the horizon

You are only coming through in waves 

Your lips move but I can't hear what you're saying 

When I was a child 

I caught a fleeting glimpse

Out of the corner of my eye

I turned to look but it was gone

I cannot put my finger on it now

The child is grown

The dream is gone

And I have become

Comfortably numb.

When The Tigers Broke Free.

(Waters)

It was just before dawn one miserable morning

In black 'forty four

When the forward commander

Was told to sit tight

When he asked that his men be withdrawn

And the Generals gave thanks

As the other ranks held back

The enemy tanks for a while

And the Anzio bridge head

Was held for the price

Of a few hundred ordinary lives

And old King George sent Mother

A note when he heard that father was gone

It was, I recall, in the form of

A scroll, with gold leaf and all

And I found it one day

In a drawer of old photographs hidden away

And my eyes still grow damp to remember

His Majesty signed

With his own rubber stamp

It was dark all round, there was frost on the ground

When the tigers broke free

And no one survived 

From the Royal Fusiliers, company "C" There were all left behind

Most of them dead, the rest of them dying

And that's how the high command

Took my Daddy from me.

Us And Them.

(Waters, Wright)

Us and them

and after all we're only ordinary men

me and you

God only knows it's not what we would choose to do

forward he cried from the rear

and the front rank died

and the General sat, and the lines on the map

moved from side to side.

Black and blue

and who knows which is which and who is who

up and down

and in the end it's only round and round and round

haven't you heard it's a battle of words

the poster bearer cried

listen, son, said the man with the gun

there's room for you inside.

Down and out

it can't be helped but there's a lot of it about

with, without

and who'll deny it's what the fighting's all about

out of the way, it's a busy day

I've got things on my mind

for want of the price of tea and a slice

the old man died.

Learning To Fly.

(Gilmour, Moore, Ezrin, Carin)

Into the distance, a ribbon of black

stretched to the point of no turning back

a flight of fancy on a wind swept field

standing alone my sense reeled

a fatal attraction holding me fast, how

can I escape this irresistable grasp?

can't keep my eyes from the circling sky

tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I

ice is forming on the tips of my wings

unheeded warnings, I tought I thought of everything

no navigator to guide my way home

unladened, empty and turned to stone.

a soul in tension that's learning to fly

condition grounded but determined to try

can't keep my eyes from the -circling- skies

tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I.

above the planet on a wing and a prayer

my grubby halo, a vapour trail in the empty air

across the clouds I see my shadow fly

out of the corner of my watering eye

a dream unthreatened by the morning light

gould blow this soul right through the roof of the night

there's no sensation to compare with this

suspended animation, a state of bliss

can't keep my mind from the circling sky

tongue-tied & twisted just an earth-bound misfit, I.

Arnold Layne.

(Barrett)

Arnold Layne had a strange hobby

collecting clothes, moonshine washing lines

they suit him fine.

On the wall hung a tall mirror

distorted view, see through, baby blue

he dug 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 hated

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne

Arnold Layne.

Arnold Layne don't do it again.

Wish You Were Here.

(Gilmour, Waters)

So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell,

blue skies from pain.

Can you tell a green field from a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

And did they get you trade your heroes for ghosts?

Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze?

Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange

a walk on part in the war for a lead role in a cage?

How I wish, how I wish you were here.

We're just two lost souls swimming in a fish bowl,

year after year,

running over the same old ground. What have we found?

The same old fears,

wish you were here.

Jugband Blues.

(Barrett)

It's awfully considerate of you to think of me there

and I'm most obliged to you for making it clear

that I'm not there

and I never knew the room could be so big

and I never knew the room could be so blue

and I'm grateful that you threw away my old shoes

and brought me here instead dressed in red.

And I'm wandering who could be writing this song

I don't care if the sun don't shine

I don't care if nothing is mine

and I don't care I'm nervous with you

I'll do my loving in the winter

And the sea isn't green

and I love the queen

and what exactly is a dream

and what exactly is a joke.

High Hopes.

(Gilmour, Samson)

beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young

In a world of magnets and miracles

our troughts strayed constandly and without boundary

The ringing of the division bell had begin

Along the long road and on down the causeway

Do they still meet there by the cut

There was a ragged band that followed in our footsteps

Running before time took our dreams away

Leaving the myriad small creatures trying to tie us to the ground

To a life consumed by slow decay

The grass was greener

The light was brighter

With friends surrounded

The night of wonder

Looking beyond the embers of bridges glowing behind us

To a glimpse of how green it was on the other side

Steps taken forwards but sleepwalking back again

Dragged by the force of some inner tide

At a higher altitude with flag unfuried

We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world

Eneumbered forever by desire and ambition

There's a hunger still unsatisfied

Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon

Though down this road we've been so many time

The grass was greener

The light was brighter

The taste was sweeter

The nights of wonder

With friends surrounded

The dawn mist glowing

The water flowing

The endless river

Forever and ever.

Bike.

(Barrett)

I've got a bike, you can ride 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 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 gould 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 tune

some wine, some gin, most of them are clockwork

let's go into the other room and make them work.

Voz: Syd Barrett.

De: 1967 The Piper At The Gates Of Down.
