One of These Days
One of these days
I'm going to cut you into little pieces
Arnold Layne
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 through baby blue
He digs it
Oh, Arnold Layne
It's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know
Two to know
Two to know
Why can't you see?
Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne
Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne
Now he's caught
A nasty sort of person
They gave him time
Doors band
Chain gain
He hates it
Oh, Arnold Layne
It's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know
Two to know
Two to know
Why can't you see?
Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne
Arnold Layne
Arnold Layne don't do it again
Fearless
You say the hill's too steep to climb
Just climb it
You say you'd like to see me try
Climbing
You pick the place and I'll choose the time
And I'll climb
The hill in my own way
Just wait a while for the right day
And as I rise above the tree lines and the clouds
I look down
Hear the sound of the things you said today
Fearlessly, the idiot faced the crowd
Smiling
Merciless, the magistrate turns 'round
Frowning
And who's the fool who wears the crown?
And go down in your own way
And every day is the right day
And as you rise above the fear-lines in his brow
You look down
Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd
(Soccer (football) crowd singing)
Brain Damage
The lunatic is on the grass
The lunatic is on the grass
Remembering games
And daisy chains and laughs
Got to keep the loonies on the path
The lunatic is in the hall
The lunatics are in my hall
The paper holds their folded faces to the floor
And every day the paper boy brings more
And if the dam breaks open many years too soon
And if there is no room upon the hill
And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade
You make the change
You rearrange me 'till I'm sane
You lock the door
And throw away the key
And there's someone in my head, but it's not me
And if the cloud bursts thunder in your ear
You shout and no one seems to hear
And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes
I'll see you on the dark side of the moon
"HaHaHa! HaHaHa! HaHaHa!..."
Eclipse
All that you touch
And all that you see
All that you taste
All you feel
And all that you love
And all that you hate
All you distrust
All you save
And all that you give
And all that you deal
And all that you buy
Beg, borrow or steal
And all you create
And all you destroy
And all that you do
And all that you say
And all that you eat
And everyone you meet
And all that you slight
And everyone you fight
And all that is now
And all that is gone
And all that's to come
And everything under the sun is in tune
But the sun is eclipsed by the moon
"There is no dark side of the moon really.
Matter of fact it's all dark."
Set The Controls For The Heart Of The Sun
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
Lotus's lean on each other in yearning
Over the hills a swallow is resting
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Over the mountain
Watching the watcher
Breaking the darkness
Waking the grapevine
Knowledge of love is knowledge of shadow
Love is the shadow that ripens the wine
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun (repeating)
Witness the man who waves at the wall
Making the shape of his questions to heaven
Whether the sun will fall in the evening
Will he remember the lesson of giving?
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
The heart of the sun
The heart of the sun (repeating)
See Emily Play
Emily tries but misunderstands
She often inclined
To borrow somebody's dreams 'till tommorow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play
Free games for may

Soon after dark
Emily cries
Gazing through trees in sorrow
Hardly a sound 'till tommorow
There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose you mind and play

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

There is no other day
Let's try it another way
You'll lose your mind and play

"Aye an' a bit of Mackeral settler rack and ruin Ran it doon
by the haim, 'ma place. Well I slapped me and I slapped it
doon in the side and I cried, cried, cried."
"The fear a fallen down taken never back the raize and then
Craig Marion, get out wi' ye Claymore out mi pocket a' ran
doon, doon the middin stain picking the fiery horde that
was fallen around ma feet. Never he cried, never shall it ye
get me alive ye rotten hound of the burnie crew. Well I
snatched fer the blade. O my Claymore cut and thrust and I
fell doon before him round his feet."
"Aye! A roar he cried frae the bottom of his heart that I
would nay fall but as dead, dead as 'a can be by his feet; de
ya ken?...and the wind cried back."
[In English] "Thank you.

The memories of a man in his old age
Are the deeds of a man in his prime
You shuffle in gloom of the sickroom
And talk to yourself as you die
Life is a short, warm moment
And death is a long cold rest
You get your chance to try in the twinkling of an eye
Eighty years, with luck, or even less
So all aboard for the American tour
And maybe you'll make it to the top
And mind how you go
And I can tell you 'cause I know
You may find it hard to get off
And You are the angel of death
And I am the dead man's son
And he was buried like a mole in a fox hole
And everyone's still on the run
And who is the master of fox hounds?
And who says the hunt has begun?
And who calls the tune in the courtroom?
And who beats the funeral drum?
The memories of a man in his old age
Are the deeds of a man in his prime
You shuffle in gloom of the sickroom
And talk to yourself till you die
Embryo
All this love
Is all I am
A ball is all I am
I'm so new
Compared to you
And I am very small
Warm glow
Moon gloom
Always need a little more room
Waiting here
Seems like years
Never see the light of day
All around
I hear strange sounds
Come gurgling in my ear
Red the light
And dark the night
I feel my dawn is near
Warm glow
Moon gloom
Always need a little more room
Whisper low
Here I go
I will see the sunshine show
