[QUOTE="john, post: 4462, member: 86"] [B]"Arnold Layne"[/B] 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 Oh, Arnold Layne It's not the same, takes 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 bang - chain gang - he hates it Oh, Arnold Layne It's not the same, takes 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 [B]"Fearless"[/B] You say the hill's too steep to climb Chiding 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-line 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 Go down in your own way And everyday 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 [B]"Brain Damage"[/B] ("Works" Version) 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 re-arrange me 'til I'm sane You lock the door and throw away the key 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 [B]"Eclipse"[/B] 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. [B]"Free Four"[/B] One two three four! The memories of a man in his old age Are the deeds of a man in his prime. You shuffle in the 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. But mind how you go. I can tell you, 'cause I know. You may find it hard to get off. You are the angel of death And I am the dead man's son. He was buried like a mole in a fox hole. And everyone is 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 the gloom of the sickroom And talk to yourself as you die. [/QUOTE]
