Little by little the kurds turn around Counting the kids which have 30 siblings Molotovs leaning on each other and burning İnside the konak ağa is resting Wey wey wey wey wey Set the apo free biji kurdistan Over the mountain watching the soldier Breaking the country waking the terror One inch of kaş is one inch of martı Love is the nevroz which will be piroz Wey wey wey wey wey Set the apo free biji kurdistan Witness the Apo who raves at Imralı Making the shape of barış süreci Halaybaşı will fall in the evening Will he pay for kaçak elektirik Wey wey wey wey wey Set the apo free biji kurdistan

In a while Ill find the time to make the sunshine mine In a smile I saw a single eagle in the sky Wheeling, soaring, gliding by On a hill there lived a man with many shining things Shiny pool, a shiny car and shiny diamond rings Wining, dining, shining king And the eagle flies in clear blue skies Breathing in the clear blue air Back here on the ground another dealer coughs and dies And fifty more come rolling off The Ford production line Then a man appearing like a mirage on the sand In his hand a moving picture of the crumbling land Screaming, dealing, movie man Here we go, hold your nose and see if something blows Close your eyes, count to ten and see the sunrise rise Climbing, high into the sky By the ornamental lake, a diamond lies Upon the finger of the king On high the eagle spies the glitter of a gun And wheeling in a climbing turn he flies into the sun
There was a boy whose name was Jim His friends, they were very good to him They gave him tea, and cakes, and jam And slices of delicious ham Oh Mother, tell me more Why’d ya have to leave me there Hanging in my infant air Waiting? You only have to read the lines They’re scribbly black and everything shines The chief defect of Henry King Was chewing little bits of string At last he swallowed some which tied Itself in ugly knots inside Wandering and dreaming The words have different meaning Yes they did In finding she was left alone Went tiptoe to the telephone, 999 And summoned the immediate aid Of Londons Noble Fire Brigade For all the time spent in that room The doll’s house, darkness, old perfume And fairy stories held me high On clouds of sunlight floating by Oh Mother, tell me more
Tell me more Aaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaah Aaaaaaaah
Wasting my time Resting my mind And I’ll never pine For the sad days and the bad days When we was workin’ from nine to five And if you don’t mind I’ll spend my time Here by the fire side In the warm light and the love in her eyes And if you don’t mind I’ll spend my time Here by the fire side In the warm light of her eyes
Raving and drooling, I fell on his neck with a scream He had a whole lot of terminal shock in his eye Thats what you get for pretending the rest are not real Babbling and snapping at far away flies He will zig zag his way back through memories of boredom and pain How does it feel to be empty and angry and spaced Split up the middle between the illusion of safety in numbers And the fist in your face
Where were you when I was burned and broken? While the days slipped by from my window watching And where were you when I was hurt and I was helpless? ‘Cause the things you say and the things you do surround me While you were hanging yourself on someone else’s words Dying to believe in what you heard I was staring straight into the shining sun Lost in thought and lost in time While the seeds of life and the seeds of change were planted Outside, the rain fell dark and slow While I pondered on this dangerous but irresistible pastime I took a heavenly ride through our silence I knew the moment had arrived For killing the past and coming back to life I took a heavenly ride through our silence I knew the waiting had begun And headed straight… into the shining sun
The path you tread is narrow And the drop is shear and very high The ravens all are watching From a vantage point nearby Apprehension creeping Like a tube-train up your spine Will the tightrope reach the end Will the final couplet rhyme And it’s high time Cymbaline It’s high time Cymbaline Please wake me A butterfly with broken wings Is falling by your side The ravens all are closing in And there’s nowhere you can hide Your manager and agent Are both busy on the phone Selling coloured photographs To magazines back home And it’s high time Cymbaline It’s high time Cymbaline Please wake me The lines converging where you stand They must have moved the picture plane The leaves are heavy around your feet You hear the thunder of the train And suddenly it strikes you That they’re moving into range Doctor Strange is always changing size And it’s high time Cymbaline It’s high time Cymbaline Please wake me And it’s high time Cymbaline It’s high time Cymbaline Please wake me
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young In a world of magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The ringing of the division bell had begun 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 nights 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 unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition Theres a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes still stray to the horizon Though down this road weve been so many times 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 For ever and ever
Jesus Christ, I might as well be dead I cant see how dangerous It must feel to me Training human cogs for the machine Without some shell-shocked lunatic like me Bombarding their still soft shells With sticks and stones That were lying around In the pile of unspeakable feelings Id found When I turned back the stone Turned over the stone Of my own disappointment back home
One, two, three, four Here comes Santa in his sleigh Those silver bells they sound so gay His shiny sleigh is heaped with toys To give to all good girls and boys With dolls and gollywogs and clockwork trains Trams, tin soldiers and little model planes Going to fill your stocking so long as youve been good And Im sure that you have because you know you should Middle eight! Have I got to sing that? Yes! No you dont sing, you just say it Okay All right? Right One, two, three . . . Cheerful face is wreathed in smiles Can see him coming for miles and miles As he passes by hell catch your ear With Merry Christmas, guys, and a happy New Year! Man! Shout that as a cheery Christmas greeting, Alan Yeah, shout that one out, right? Turkey and sausages and Christmas pud Have another helping John! Oh, I dont think I could Christmas parcels under the tree None for you and six for me!
Pink Floyd Wish You Were Here Shine On You Crazy Diamond I-IV Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun Shine on you crazy diamond Now theres a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky Shine on you crazy diamond You were caught on the crossfire 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 Threatened 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!
Momma loves her baby And Daddy loves you too And the sea may look warm to you Babe And the sky may look blue Ooooh Babe Ooooh Baby blue Ooooh Babe If you should go skating, boy On the thin ice of modern life Pay attention at school ator all the rules Take a job and the wife But dont be surprised, when a crack in the ice Appears under your feet Sinking out of your depth and out of your mind With your fear flowing out behind you As you claw the thin ice Help me, help me Help me, help me Ooh, baby, please help me

Why does anyone do anything? I dont know; I was really drunk at the time! I was just telling him it was in, he could get it in number two. He was asking why it wasnt coming up on freight eleven. After, I was yelling and screaming and telling him why it wasnt coming up on freight eleven. It came to a heavy blow, which sorted the matter out.
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 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 its sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way but youre 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 naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over Thought Id something more to say Home, home again I like to be here when I can And when I come home cold and tired Its 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

“Icy wind of night be gone this is not your domain” In the sky a bird was heard to cry Misty morning whisperings and gentle stirring sounds Belied the deathly silence that lay all around Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes through the endless summer Making for the sea In the lazy water meadow I lay me down All around me golden sun flakes settle on the ground Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes through the endless summer Making for the sea In the lazy water meadow I lay me down All around me golden sun flakes covering the ground Basking in the sunshine of a bygone afternoon Bringing sounds of yesterday into this city room Hear the lark and harken to the barking of the dog fox Gone to ground See the splashing of the kingfisher flashing to the water And a river of green is sliding unseen beneath the trees Laughing as it passes through the endless summer Making for the sea
Speech has allowed the communication of ideas Enabling human beings to work together, to build the impossible Mankinds greatest achievements have come about by talking Our greatest hopes could become reality in the future With the technology at our disposal, the possibilities are unbounded All we need to do is make sure we keep talking
Shall we buy a new guitar Shall we drive a more powerful car Shall we work straight through the night Shall we get into fights Leave the lights on Drop bombs in the East Contract diseases Bury treasure Store up lights on Drop bombs in the East Contract diseases Bury treasure Store up lights on Drop bombs in the East Contract diseases Bury treasure Store up leisure But never relax at all With our backs to the wall
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 and curdled with fright His knees have trembled and 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 an 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
As you look around this room tonight Settle in your seat and dim the lights Do you want my blood, do you want my tears? What do you want? Should I sing until I can’t sing anymore? Play these strings until my fingers are raw Ill do my best to please What do you want from me? Do you think that I know something you don’t know? If I don’t promise you the answers would you go? Should I stand out in the rain? Do you want me to make a daisy chain for you? I’m not the one you need What do you want from me? You can have anything you want You can drift, you can dream, even walk on water Anything you want You can own everything you see Sell your soul for complete control Is that really what you need? You can lose yourself this night See inside, there is nothing to hide Turn and face the light What do you want from me?
He made his way to the border In the shadow, under the trees Down by a stream, in a hollow Turn your head, feel the breeze And the Red Queen was waiting for the news For the White King to move And the balance hung upon the head of one who tried To stay within the shadows And keep his undercover secret tight They let him in by a backway Into a chamber reserved for the Queen She took the note that he gave her Opened it slowly and started to read Run to the treasury and bring me back some gold Give it to the pawn who came, she cried He says the White King thinks the game of chess is wrong And all the courtiers crowded her And this is what she told the gathered round Go to the store by the dungeon Take all the red paint, take all the white Make up a newborn colour Cover your neighbor, well be alright There will be no game today, she cried across the board Every day will be a holiday And all the pieces cheered as tidings spread abroad And the Pink Queen sat And smiled at the cat, who smiled back
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, dont help them to bury the light Dont 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, Im 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 Always doing what youre told Can you help me? Hey you, out there beyond the wall Breaking bottles in the hall Can you help me? Hey you, dont tell me theres no hope at all Together we stand, divided we fall
Lime 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 Lime and limpid green, the sounds surrounds The icy waters under Lime and limpid green, the sounds surrounds The icy waters underground
Heavy hung the canopy of blue Shade my eyes and I can see you White is the light that shines through the dress that you wore She lay in the shadow of the wave Hazy were the visions of her playing Sunlight on her eyes but moonshine made her cry ev’ry time Green is the colour of her kind Quickness of the eye deceives the mind Envy is the bond between the hopeful and the damned
Run. Run. Run. Run Run. Run. Run. Run Run. Run. Run. Run Run. Run. Run. Run You better make your face up in your favourite disguise With your button down lips and your roller blind eyes With your empty smile and your hungry heart Feel the bile rising from your guilty past With your nerves in tatters as the cockle shell shatters And the hammers batter down the door You better run Run. Run. Run. Run Run. Run. Run. Run Run. Run. Run. Run Run. Run. Run. Run You better run all day and run all night And keep your dirty feelings deep inside And if youre taking your girlfriend out tonight You better park the car well out of sight Cause if they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks Theyre gonna send you back to Mother in a cardboard box You better run good

— and disciplinary remains mercifully Yes and um, I’m with you Derek, this star nonsense Yes, yes Now which is it? I am sure of it 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 to 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 leading role in a cage? How I wish, how I wish you were here Were 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
For millions of years mankind lived just like the 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 And no one can bother me I think I should speak now I can’t seem to speak now My words won’t come out right I feel like I’m drowning I’m feeling weak now But I can’t show my weakness I sometimes wonder 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 I feel like I’m drowning You know I can’t breathe now We’re going nowhere We’re going nowhere
Us and them And after all were only ordinary men Me and you God only knows its 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 its only round and round Havent you heard its a battle of words? The poster bearer cried Listen son, said the man with the gun Theres room for you inside I mean, theyre not gonna kill ya So if you give em a quick short, sharp, shock, they wont do it again Dig it? I mean he get off lightly Cause I wouldve given him a thrashing I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion But really, I mean good manners dont cost nothing do they, eh? Down and out It cant be helped but theres a lot of it about With, without And wholl deny its what the fightings all about? Out of the way, its a busy day Ive got things on my mind For the want of the price of tea and a slice The old man died
Beyond the horizon of the place we lived when we were young In a world filled with magnets and miracles Our thoughts strayed constantly and without boundary The division bells ringing had begun Down 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 nights 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 unfurled We reached the dizzy heights of that dreamed of world Encumbered forever by desire and ambition Theres a hunger still unsatisfied Our weary eyes will stray to the horizon Though down this road weve been a hundred times The grass was greener The light was brighter The dawn mist glowing The water flowing With friends surrounded The nights of wonder The light was brighter The grass was greener For ever and ever
And I am not frightened of dying Any time will do, I dont mind Why should I be frightened of dying? Theres no reason for it, youve gotta go sometime I never said I was frightened of dying
Down, down. Down, down. The star is screaming Beneath the lies. Lie, lie. Tschay, tschay, tschay Careful, careful, careful with that axe, Eugene The stars are screaming loud Tsch Tsch Tsch
What shall we use to fill the empty spaces Where we used to talk ? How shall I fill the final places ? How should I complete the wall ?
Good evening ladies and gentlemen and welcome to Earls Court. My name is Gary Yudman and we are going to have a great show this evening. The band is backstage and will be ready to go in just a few minutes. Before the show begins, the house management would just like to request a few things First, please no fireworks. Also, please no flash cameras. And any unauthorized audio or video equipment that is being used may be confiscated, so, please, save yourself a lot of hassle Well, I think the band is about ready to go now
On the turning away From the pale and downtrodden And the words they say Which we won’t understand Don’t accepting that what’s happening Its just a case of others’ suffering Or you’ll find that you’re joining in The turning away It’s a sin that somehow Light is changing to shadow And casting its shroud Over all we have known Unaware how the ranks have grown Driven on by a heart of stone We could find that we’re all alone In the dream of the proud On the wings of the night As the daytime is stirring Where the speechless unite In a silent accord Using words you will find are strange Mesmerised as they light the flame Feel the new wind of change On the wings of the night No more turning away From the weak and the weary No more turning away From the coldness inside Just a world that we all must share It’s not enough just to stand and stare Is it only a dream that there’ll be No more turning away?
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 paperboy 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 Ill 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 til Im sane You lock the door And throw away the key Theres someone in my head but its not me And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear You shout and no one seems to hear And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes Ill see you on the dark side of the moon I cant think of anything to say except Hahahahahahaha! I think its marvellous! Hahaha..
On the day the wall came down They threw the locks onto the ground And with glasses high we raised a cry for freedom had arrived On the day the wall came down The Ship of Fools had finally run aground Promises lit up the night like paper doves in flight I dreamed you had left my side No warmth, not even pride remained And even though you needed me It was clear that I could not do a thing for you Now life devalues day by day As friends and neighbors turn away And there’s a change that, even with regret, cannot be undone Now frontiers shift like desert sands While nations wash their bloodied hands Of loyalty, of history, in shades of grey I woke to the sound of drums The music played, the morning sun streamed in I turned and I looked at you And all but the bitter residues slipped away Slipped away
Daddys flown across the ocean Leaving just a memory A snap shot in the family album Daddy what dya leave behind for me? Daddy what dya leave behind for me? All in all its just another brick in the wall All in all its just another brick in the wall
Im not ready! This is not a drill. This is it I need time to think No. You came in like a bird through a window and out. Its done But I have to find the words Hold a thought like holding a breath till you cant hold it anymore. Then hold it more, till you think youre going to die. And let it go... A thought wave. Soundwaves of pure thought Im getting voices... Thought waves. You can do that! Take a breath, hold it... Of all the gin joints in all the towns in all the world... she walked into mine You go girl So woe to you Oh woe to you and me And woe to all of us But we can save the Earth from turning to dust and bones Dust and bones; from fire and flood Look heres the thing Heres what Im saying The Earth is the common You cant save it for yourself but you can save it for others And the others will save it for you The other is us and we are the other We are of a kind We are natural born to kindness Which means to act as to our kind as kin to kin As kindred which is to act kindly What is the good? Its nothing but a contest of kindness To be unkind is against nature and it makes us feel bad To be selfish is against nature because it is against our kindness We are as natural born to unselfishness as a mother to her baby Her milk is the milk of human kin and kindness But when we live for trickery and gain we turn against nature And nature will turn against us We will be lords of dust And bones
Breathe, breathe in the air Dont be afraid to care Leave but dont leave me Look around and choose your own ground For long you live and high you fly And smiles youll give and tears youll cry And all you touch and all you see Is all your life will ever be Run, rabbit, run Dig that hole, forget the sun And when at last the work is done Dont sit down, its time to dig another one For long you live and high you fly But only if you ride the tide And balanced on the biggest wave You race toward an early grave

Us and them And after all were only ordinary men Me and you God only knows its 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 its only round and round Havent you heard its a battle of words? The poster bearer cried Listen son, said the man with the gun Theres room for you inside I mean, theyre not gonna kill ya So if you give em a quick short, sharp, shock, they wont do it again Dig it? I mean he get off lightly Cause I wouldve given him a thrashing I only hit him once! It was only a difference of opinion But really, I mean good manners dont cost nothing do they, eh? Down and out It cant be helped but theres a lot of it about With, without And wholl deny its what the fightings all about? Out of the way, its a busy day Ive got things on my mind For the want of the price of tea and a slice The old man died

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 senses reel A fatal attraction is holding me fast How can I escape this irresistible grasp? Can’t keep my eyes from the circling sky Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I Ice is forming on the tips of my wings Unheeded warnings, I thought I thought of everything No navigator to find my way home Unladen, 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 sky Tongue-tied and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I Above the planet on a wing and a prayer My grubby halo, a vapor 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 Could 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 and twisted Just an earth-bound misfit, I
I dont need no arms around me And I dont need no drugs to calm me I have seen the writing on the wall Dont think I need anything at all No, dont think Ill need anything at all All in all it was all just bricks in the wall All in all you were all just bricks in the wall
Come in here, dear boy, have a cigar, youre gonna go far Youre gonna fly high, youre never gonna die Youre gonna make it if you try, theyre gonna love you Well, Ive always had a deep respect an I mean that most sincerely The band is just fantastic, that is really what I think Oh, by the way, which ones Pink? And did we tell you the name of the game, boy?

Its a hell of a start, it could be made into a monster If we all pull together as a team And did we tell you the name of the game, boy? We call it riding the gravy train
All this love, is all I am A ball is all I am Im 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 I will see the sunshine show All around I hear strange sounds Come drifting round my ears Dark the light and long the night I feel my dawn is near Warm glow, moon gloom Always need a little more room Waiting here seems like years I will see the sunshine show
What shall we use to fill the empty Spaces where she used to walk How shall we fill the final places How shall we complete the wall?
Remember when you were young You shone like the Sun Shine on, you crazy diamond Now theres a look in your eyes Like black holes in the sky Shine on, you crazy diamond You were caught in the crossfire 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 Threatened 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 Nobody knows where you are How near or how far Shine on you crazy diamond Pile on many more layers And Ill be joining you there Shine on you crazy diamond And well bask in the shadow of yesterdays triumph And sail on the steel breeze Come on, you boy child, you winner and loser Come on, you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
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 paperboy 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 Ill 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 til Im sane You lock the door And throw away the key Theres someone in my head but its not me And if the cloud bursts, thunder in your ear You shout and no one seems to hear And if the band youre in starts playing different tunes Ill see you on the dark side of the moon I cant think of anything to say except Hahahahahahaha! I think its marvellous! Hahaha..
And I am not frightened of dying Any time will do, I dont mind Why should I be frightened of dying? Theres no reason for it, youve gotta go sometime I never said I was frightened of dying
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 thats to come And everything under the sun is in tune But the sun is eclipsed by the moon (There is no dark side in the moon really Matter of fact its all dark)
Lady divine, I hear on the grapevine Gabriel came to the stable last night Lady divine, I hear on the grapevine Gabriel came to the stable last night

Ive been mad for fucking years Absolutely years, been over the edge for yonks Been working me buns off for bands Ive always been mad, I know Ive been mad Like the most of us have Very hard to explain why youre mad Even if youre not mad
Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run You better make your face up in your favourite disguise With your button down lips and your roller blind eyes With your empty smile and your hungry heart Feel the bile rising from your guilty past With your nerves in tatters as the cockleshell shatters And the hammers batter down the door You better run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run Run, run, run, run You better run all day and run all night And keep your dirty feelings deep inside And if youre taking your girlfriend out tonight You better park the car well out of sight Cause if they catch you in the back seat trying to pick her locks Theyre gonna send you back to mother in a cardboard box You better run Hey, open up! HaHaHaHaHaaaaaaaaaa! Hammer, Hammer...
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 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 its sinking Racing around to come up behind you again The sun is the same in a relative way but youre 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 naught or half a page of scribbled lines Hanging on in quiet desperation is the English way The time is gone, the song is over Thought Id something more to say Home, home again I like to be here when I can And when I come home cold and tired Its 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
So ya Thought ya Might like to, go to the show To feel the warm thrill of confusion That space cadet glow Ive got some bad news for you sunshine Pink isnt well, hes at home in his bed And they sent us along with a surrogate band Were gonna find out where you fans really stand
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 and curdled with fright His knees have trembled and 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 an 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

Daddys flown across the ocean Leaving just a memory Snapshot in the family album Daddy what else did you leave for me? Daddy what you leave behind for me? All in all it was just a brick in the wall All in all it was just another brick in the wall
What shall we use To fill the empty Spaces Where waves of hunger roar? Shall we set out across this sea of faces In search of more and more applause? Shall we buy a new guitar? Shall we drive a more powerful car? Shall we work straight through the night? Shall we get into fights? Leave the lights on? Drop bombs? Do tours of the East? Contract diseases? Bury bones? Break up homes? Send flowers by phone? Take to drink? Go to shrinks? Give up meat? Rarely sleep? Keep people as pets? Train dogs? Race rats? Fill the attic with cash? Bury treasure Store up leisure But never relax at all? With our backs to the wall
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 Shes 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 Im feeling very pink Apples and oranges Apples and oranges I love she She loves me See you See you See you Thought you might like to know Im the lorry driver man Shes on the run Down by the river side Feeding ducks in the afternoon tide Apples and oranges Apples and oranges Apples and oranges
Day after day love turns gray Like the skin on a dying man And night after night we pretend its all right But I have grown older, and You have grown colder, and Nothing is very much fun any more And I can feel one of my turns coming on I feel cold as a razor blade Tight as a tourniquet Dry as a funeral drum Run to the bedroom In the suitcase on the left Youll find my favourite axe Dont look so frightened This is just a passing phase Just one of my bad days Would you like to watch TV? Or get between the sheets? Or contemplate the silent freeway? Would you like something to eat? Would you like to call the cops? Do you think its time I stopped? Why are you running away?
