ASTRONOMY DOMINE

---

IME and limpid green,
a second scene,
A fight between the blue
you once knew.
         Floating down, the sound resounds
         Around the icy waters underground
         Jupiter and Saturn Oberon Miranda
         And Titania Neptune Titan
         Stars can frighten...

         Blinding signs flap flicker flicker flicker
         Blam pow pow
         Stairway scare Dan Dare who's there...

         Lime and limpid green
         The sound surrounds the icy waters under
         Lime and limpid green
         The sound surrounds the icy waters
         Underground

LUCIFER SAM

UCIFER Sam Siam cat Always sitting by your side Always by your side That cat's something I can't explain

Jennifer Gentle you're a witch      You're the left side      He's the right side oh no      That cat's something I can't explain      Lucifer go to sea      Be a hip cat      Be a ship's cat      Somewhere anywhere      That cat's something I can't explain      Night prowling sifting sand      Padding around on the ground      He'll be found      When you're around      That cat's something I can't explain      Written by Syd Barrett

MATILDA MOTHER

---

HERE was a king
who ruled the land
His majesty
was in command
     With silver eyes the scarlet eagle
     Showered silver on the people
     Oh Mother tell me more

     Why'd you have to leave me there
     Hanging in my infant air, waiting
     You only have to read the lines of
     Scribbly black and everything shines

     Across the stream with wooden shoes
     Bells to tell the King the news
     A thousand misty riders
     Climb up higher once upon a time

     Wondering and dreaming
     The words have different meanings
     Yes they did...

     For all the time spent in that room
     The doll's house darkness old perfume
     And fairy stories held me high up
     On clouds of sunlight floating by
     Oh Mother tell me more
     Tell me more...

FLAMING

LONE in the
clouds all blue
         Lying on an eiderdown, yippee
         You can't see me but I can you

         Lazing in the foggy dew
         Sitting on a unicorn no fear
         You can't hear me but I can you

         Watching buttercups cup the light
         Sleeping on a dandelion too much
         I won't touch you but then I might

         Streaming through the starlit skies
         Travelling by telephone
         Hey ho here we go
         Ever so high

         Alone in the clouds all blue
         Lying on an eiderdown, yippee
         You can't see me but I can you

OCTOR
Doctor
I'm in bed
Doctor Doctor
Aching head
         Doctor Doctor gold is lead
         Doctor Doctor choke on bread
         Doctor Doctor underfed
         Doctor Doctor gold is lead
         Doctor Doctor Jesus bled
         Doctor Doctor pain is red
         Doctor Doctor dark doom
         Gruel ghoul greasy spoon
         Used spoon June gloom

         Music seems to help the pain
         Seems to motivate the brain
         Doctor kindly tell your wife
         That I'm alive
         Flowers thrive
         Realise
         Realise
         Realise

WANT to tell You a story 'Bout a little Man if I can

A gnome named Grimble Gromble          And little gnomes stay in their homes          Eating, sleeping, drinking their wine          He wore a scarlet tunic          A blue-green hood, it looked quite good          He had a big adventure          Amidst the grass, fresh air at last          Wining, dining, biding his time...          And then one day          Hooray, another way for gnomes to say          Ooh my...          Look at the sky, look at the river          Isn't it good?          Look at the sky, look at the river          Isn't it good?          Winding, finding places to go          And then one day          Hooray, another way for gnomes to say          Ooh my          Ooh my...          Written by Syd Barrett

SCARECROW

---

HE 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.

BIKE

---

'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 things

         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

         You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
         I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

         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

         You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
         I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

         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

         You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world
         I'll give you anything, everything if you want things

         I know a room of musical tunes
         Some rhyme, some ching, most of them are clockwork

         Let's go into the other room and make them work

SEE EMILY PLAY

MILY tries, but misunderstands,
ah ooohh
She often inclined to borrow
somebody's dreams till tomorrow
         There is no other day
         Let's try it another way
         You'll lose your mind and play
         Free games for May
         See Emily play

         Soon after dark Emily cries
         ah ooohh
         Gazing through trees in sorrow hardly a sound till tomorrow
         There is no other day
         Let's try it another way
         You'll lose your mind and play
         Free games for May
         See Emily play

         Put on a gown that touches the ground
         ah ooohh
         Float on a river forever and ever, Emily, Emily
         There is no other day
         Let's try it another way
         You'll lose your mind and play
         Free games for May
         See Emily play
