Letras:


Arnold Layne.
(Barrett)

Arnold Layne had a strange hobby - collecting clothes
Moonshine, washing line
They suit him fine.

On the wall hung a tall mirror
Distorted view
See thru' baby blue.

He dug it - oh Arnold Layne
It's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know
Why can't you see
Arnold Layne.

Now he's caught
A nasty sort of person
They gave him time
Doors clang, chain gang.

He hates it - Oh Arnold Layne
It's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know
Why can't you see
Arnold Layne
Don't do it again.


Candy And A Currant Bun.
(Barrett)

Let's Roll Another One

Oh my girl sitting in the sky
Go buy candy and encouragement
I like to see you cry
Lay back

Oooh, don't talk to me
Please, just fuck with me
Please you know I'm feeling frail

Talk, talk, talk to me
Please just walk with me
Please no feeling frail

It's true sun's shining very bright
It's you I'm gonna love tonight
Ice cream tastes good in the afternoon
Ice cream tastes good if you eat it soon

Ooh, don't touch me child
Please - no !
You drive me wild
Please you know I'm feeling frail

Don't try another cat
Don't go where other you must know why
Ver very very frail

Oh my girl sitting in the sun
Go buy candy and a currant bun
I like to see you run
Like that...

Oh my girl fading in the sun
Go buy a candy and a currant bun
I'm high! Don't try to spoil the fun
Go cry or I'll have another one

Ooh don't touch me child
Please, you know you drive me wild
Please, you know I'm feeling frail

Ooh don't talk to me
Please, just walk with me
Please, you know I'm feeling frail

It's true sun's shining very bright
It's you I'm gonna love tonight
Ice cream tastes good if you eat it right
Ice cream tastes good if you treat it right

Ooh don't talk to me
Please, you know you drive me wild
Please, you know I'm feeling frail

Oh my girl fading in the sun
Go buy a candy and a currant bun
I'm high don't try to spoil the fun
Go cry or I'll have another one


See Emily Play.
(Barrett)

Emily tries but misunderstands
She's often inclined yo borrow somebodys dream
'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
She's gazing through trees in sorrow
Hardly a sound '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

Put on a gown that touches the ground
Float on a river for ever and ever
Emily

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
See Emily Play


Scarecrow.
(Barrett) 

The black and green scarecrow as everyone knows 
Stood with a bird on his hat and straw everywhere. 
He didn't care. 
He stood in a field where barley grows. 

His head did no thinking 
His arms didn't move except when the wind cut up 
Rough and mice ran around on the ground 
He stood in a field where barley grows. 

The black and green scarecrow is sadder than me 
But now he's resigned to his fate 
'Cause life's not unkind - he doesn't mind. 
He stood in a field where barley grows. 


Apples And Oranges.
(Barrett)

Got a flip-top pack of cigarettes in her pocket
Feeling good at the top
Shopping in sharp shoes
Walking in the sunshine town feeling very cool
But the butchers and the bakers in the supermarket stores
Getting everything she wants from the supermarket stores
Apples and oranges
Apples and oranges

Cornering neatly she trips up sweetly
To meet the people
She's on time again
And then
I catch her by the eye then I stop and have to think
What a funny thing to do 'cause I'm feeling very pink
Apples and oranges
Apples and oranges

I love she
She loves me
See you
See you
See you

(Apples and oranges)
(Apples and oranges)
(Apples and oranges)
(Apples and oranges)
(Apples and oranges)

Thought you might like to know
I'm the lorry driver man
She's on the run
Down by the river side
Feeding ducks in the afternoon tide (quack quack)
Apples and oranges
Apples and oranges
Apples and oranges.


Paint Box.
(Wright)

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

What a way to spend that evening
They all turn up with their friends
Playing the game
But in the scene I should have been
Far away
Away - away - away - away - away
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene 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
Away - away - away - away - away

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
Be - a - be - a - be - a - be - a - be
Getting up, I feel as if I'm remembering this scene before
I open the door to an empty room
Then I forget.
