Astronomy Domine

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

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

Lucifer 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




Mathilda Mother

There was a king who ruled the land
His majesty was in command
With silver eyes, the scarlet eagle
Showered silver on the people

Oh oh Mathilda
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 oh Mathilda
Tell me more
Tell me more



Flaming

Alone 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

Take Up Thy Stetoscope And Walk

Doctor 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



Interstellar Overdrive

(instrumental)



The Gnome

I want to tell you a story
About a little man, if I can

A gnome named Grimble Grumble
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
Hooooray

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
Hooooray
Hooooray




Chapter 24

All movement is accomplished in six stages,
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the young light
It forms when darkness is increased by one

Change return success
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune
Sunset

The time is with the month of winter solstice
When the change is due to come
Thunder in the Earth, the course of Heaven
Things cannot be destroyed once and for all

Change return success
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune
Sunset,
Sunrise

All movement is accomplished in six stages,
And the seventh brings return
The seven is the number of the young light
It forms when darkness is increased by one

Change return success
Going and coming without error
Action brings good fortune
Sunset, sunrise, sunrise, sun sunrise
Sunrise



The Scarecrow

The 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

I'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
