Testo Octopus - Syd Barrett
Testo della canzone Octopus (Syd Barrett), tratta dall'album The Madcap Laughs
Trip to heave and ho'
Up, down, to and fro'
You have no word
Trip, trip to a dream dragon
Hide your wings in a ghost tower
Sails cackling at every plate we break
Cracked by scattered needles
The little minute gong
Coughs and clears his throat
Madam, you see before you stand
Hey, ho, never be still
The old original favorite grand
Grasshoppers green herbarian band
And the tune they play is "In Us Confide"
So, trip to heave and ho'
Up, down, to and fro'
You have no word
Please, leave us here
Close our eyes
To the octopus ride
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood?
Isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood?
Meant even less to me than I thought
With a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
Clover honey pots and mystic shining feed
Well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border
Hey, ho, huff the Talbot
Cheat he cried shouting "kangaroo"
It's true, in their tree they cried
Please, leave us here
Close our eyes
To the octopus ride
Please, leave us here
Close our eyes
To the octopus ride
The madcap laughed at the man on the border
Hey, ho, huff the Talbot
The winds they blew and the leaves did wag
They'll never put me in their bag
The seas will reach and always seep
So high you go, so low you creep
The wind it blows in tropical heat
The drones they throng on mossy seats
The squeaking door will always squeak
Two up, two down, we'll never meet
So merrily trip forgot my side
Please, leave us here
Close our eyes
To the octopus ride
