Pink Floyd - A New Machine (Part 2)
I will always be here
I will always look out from behind these eyes
It′s only a lifetime
It′s only a lifetime
It′s only a lifetime
I will always be here
I will always look out from behind these eyes
It′s only a lifetime
It′s only a lifetime
It′s only a lifetime
Little by little the night turns around.
Counting the leaves which tremble and turn.
Lotus′s lean on each other in union.
Over the hills where 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.
Morning to birth is born into 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. who is the man who arrives at the wall?
Making the shape of his questions at asking.
Thinking 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.
Come on, my friends,
Let′s make for the hills.
They say there′s gold but I′m looking for thrills.
You can get your hands on whatever we find,
Because I′m only coming along for the ride.
Well, you go your way,
I′ll go mine.
I don′t care if we get there on time.
Everybody′s searching for something, they say.
I′ll get my kicks on the way.
Over the mountains, across the seas
Who knows what will be waiting for me?
I could sail forever to strange sounding names.
Faces of people and places don′t change.
All I have to do is just close my eyes
To see the seagulls wheeling on those far distant skies.
All I want to tell you, all I want to sayIs count me in on the journey.
Don′t expect me to stay.
For millions of years mankind lived just like animals
Then something happened which unleashed the power of our imagination
We learned to talk
Ther′s a silence surrounding me
I can′t seem to think straight
I′ll sit in the corner
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 weaknesss
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
Why won′t you talk to me
You never talk to me
What are you thinking
What are you feeling
Why won′t you talk to me
You never talk to me
What are you thinking
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
Why won′t you talk to me
You never talk to me
What are you thinking
What are you feeling
Why won′t you talk to me
You never talk to me
What are you thinking
What are you feeling
I feel like I′m drowning
You know I can′t breathe now
We′re going nowhere
We′re going nowhere
You shout in your sleep.
Perhaps the price is just too stepp.
Is your conscience at rest if once put to the test?
You awake with a start to just the beating of your heart.
Just one man beneath the sky,
Just two ears, just two eyes.
You set sail across the sea of longpast thoughts and memories.
Childhood′s end,
Your fantasies merge with harsh realities.
And then as the sail is hoist,
You find your eyes are growing moist.
All the fears never voiced say you have to make your final choice.
Who are you and who am I to say we know the reason why?
Some are born;
Some men die beneath one infinite sky.
There′ll be war, there′ll be peace.
But everything one day will cease.
All the iron turned to rust;
Doctor doctor
I′m in bed.
Doctor doctor
Achin′ 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......
You know that I care what happens to you
And I know that you care for me
So I don′t feel alone
Of the weight of the stone
Now that I′ve found somewhere safe
To bury my bone
And any fool knows a dog needs a home
Would you like to something before you leave?
Perhaps you′d care to state exactly how you feel.
We say goodbye before we′ve said hello.
I hardly even like you.
I shouldn′t care at all.
We met just six hours ago.
The music was too loud.
From your bed I came today and lost a bloody year.
And I would like to know, how do you feel?
How do you feel?
Not a single word was said.
They lied still without fears.
Occasionally you showed a smile, but what was the need?
I felt the cold far too soon in a wind of ninetyfive.
My friends are lying in the sun, I wish I was there.
Tomorrow brings another town, another girl like you.
Have you time before you leave to greet another man
Just to let me know, how do you feel?
How do you feel?
Goodbye to you.
Childish bangles too.
I′ve had enough for one day.
Big man, pig man, ha ha charade you are.
You well heeled big wheel, ha ha charade you are.
And when your hand is on your heart,
You′re nearly a good laugh,
Almost a joker,
With your head down in the pig bin,
Saying "Keep on digging."
Pig stain on your fat chin.
What do you hope to find.
When you′re down in the pig mine.
You′re nearly a laugh,
You′re nearly a laugh
But you′re really a cry.
Bus stop rat bag, ha ha charade you are.
You fucked up old hag, ha ha charade you are.
You radiate cold shafts of broken glass.
You′re nearly a good laugh,
Almost worth a quick grin.
You like the feel of steel,
You′re hot stuff with a hatpin,
And good fun with a hand gun.
You′re nearly a laugh,
You′re nearly a laugh
But you′re really a cry.
Hey you Whitehouse,
Ha ha charade you are.
You house proud town mouse,
Ha ha charade you are
You′re trying to keep our feelings off the street.
You′re nearly a real treat,
All tight lips and cold feet
And do you feel abused?
You gotta stem the evil tide,
And keep it all on the inside.
Mary you′re nearly a treat,
Mary you′re nearly a treat
But you′re really a cry.
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
To meet, sometime
Everybody wakes, and in the morning
Hot tea and can′t stop yawning
Pass the butter please.
Have you ever read the
Daily Standard?
Reading all about the plane that′s landed
Upside down?
And no one knows what
I did today
There can be no other way
But I would just like to say
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
To meet sometime
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
To meet sometime
Everybody cares about the weather
And everybody should know better
What a waste of time
Everybody lives beneath the ceiling
Living out a dream that sends them reeling
To a distant place
But no one knows what
I did today
There can be no other way
But I would just like to say
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
To meet sometime
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
To meet sometime
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
It would be so nice
To meet sometime
Floating down through the clouds
Memories come rushing up to meet me now
In the space between the heavens
And in the corner of some foreign field
I had a dream
Goodbye Max
Goodbye Ma
After the service when you′re walking slowly to the car
And the silver in her hair shines in the cold November air
You hear the tolling bell
And touch the silk in your lapel
And as tear drops rise to meet the comfort of the band
You take her frail hand
And hold on to the dream
A place to stay
Enough to eat
Somewhere old heroes shuffle safely down the street
Where you can speak out loud
About your doubts and fears
And what′s more no-one ever disappears
You never hear their standard issue kicking in your door
You can relax on both sides of the tracks
And maniacs don′t blow holes in bandsmen by remote control
And everyone has recourse to the law
And no one kills the children anymore
Night after night
Going round and round my brain
His dream is driving me insane
In the corner of some foreign field
The gunner sleeps tonight
What’s done is done
We cannot just write off his final scene
Take heed of his dream
Take heed
I have always been here
I have always looked out from behind these eyes
it feels like more than a lifetime
feels like more than a lifetime
Sometimes I get tired of the waiting
sometimes I get tired of being in here
is this the way it has always been?
could it ever have been different?
Do you ever get tired of the waiting?
do you ever get tired of being in there?
don′t worry, nobody lives forever,
nobody lives forever
Ooooo Babe,
Don′t leave me now.
Don′t say it′s the end of the road.
Remember the flowers I sent.
I need you, Babe,
To put through the shredder in front of my friends.
Oh Babe,
Don′t leave me now.
How could you go?
When you know how I need you,
To beat to a pulp on a Saturday night.
Oh Babe,
Don′t leave me now.
How can you treat me this way?
Running away.
Oh Babe,
Why are you running away?
jesus jesus what′s it all about
trying to clout these little ingrates into shape
when I was their age all the lights went out
there was no time to whine and mope about
and even now part of me flies over
dresden at angels one five
though they′ll never fathom it behind my
sarcasm desperate memories lie
sweetheart sweetheart are you fast asleep, good
′cos that′s the only time that I can really talk to you
and there is something that I′ve locked away
a memory that is too painful
to withstand the light of day
when we came back from the war the banners and
flags hung on everyones door
we danced and we sang in the street and
the church bells rang
but burning in my heart
my memory smoulders on
of the gunners dying words on the intercom
Remember when you were young
You shone like the Sun
Shine on, you crazy diamond !
Now there′s a look in your eyes
Like black holes in the sky
Shine on, you crazy diamond !
You were caught on the cross fire
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 you 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!
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 lead role in a cage?
How I wish,
How I wish you were here
We′re 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.
Daddy′s flown across the ocean
Leaving just a memory
A snap shot in the family album
Daddy what else did you leave for me
Daddy what d′ya leave behind for me
All in all it was just a brick in the wall
All in all it was all just bricks in the wall
We don′t need no education
We don′t need no thought control
No dark sarcasm in the classroom
Teachers leave them kids alone
Hey! Teachers! Leave them kids alone!
All in all it′s just another brick in the wall.
All in all you′re just another brick in
the wall.
Bath of tequila, Manuel
Leaf and cringle
Laugh at my lisp and kill you
I think
This Spanish music
It sets my soul on fire
Lovely seniorita
Your eyes are like stars
Your teeth are like pearls
Your ruby lips seniorita
Marigolds are very much in love, but he doesn′t mind
Picking up his sister,
He makes his way into the seas or land
All the way she smiles
She goes up while he goes down, down
Sits on a stick in the river
Laughter in his sleep
Sister′s throwing stones, hoping for a hit
He doesn′t know so then
She goes up while he goes down, down
Another time, another day
A brother′s way to leave
Another time, another day
She′ll be selling plastic flowers on a Sunday afternoon
Picking up weeds, she hasn′t got the time to care
All can see he′s not there
She grows up for another man, and he′s down
Another time, another day
A brother′s way to leave
Another time, another day
Another time, another day
A brother′s way to leave
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, ev′rything 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, ev′rything 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, ev′rything if you want things.
I′ve got a clan of gingerbread men.
Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men.
A cloud of eider down
Draws around me softening the sound
Sleepy time in my life
With my love by my side
And she′s breathing low
And the candle dies.
When night comes down you lock the door
The book falls to the floor
As darkness falls and waves roll by
The seasons change
The wind is raw.
Now wakes the hour that sleeps the swan
Behold a dream, the dream is gone
Green fields
A cold rain is falling
If you didn′t care what happened to me,
And I didn′t care for you
We would zig zag our way
Through the boredom and pain
Occasionally glancing up through the rain
Wondering which of the buggers to blame
And watching for pigs on the wing.
Did you know...it was all going to go so wrong for you
And did you see it was all going to be so right for me
Why did we tell you then
You were always the golden boy then
And that you′d never lose that light in your eyes
Hey you...did you ever realise what you′d become
And did you see that it wasn′t only me you were running from
Did you know all the time but it never bothered you anyway
Leading the blind while i stared out the steel in your eyes
The rain fell slow, down on all the roofs of uncertainty
I thought of you and the years and all the sadness fell away from me
And did you know...
I never thought that you′d lose that light in your eyes
Lucifer Sam saw your cat
Always sitting by your side
Always by your side
That cat′s something I can′t explane
Jennifer Gentle you′re the witch
You′re the left side, he′s the right side
Oh no
That cat′s something I can′t explane
Wouldn′t say we′re going to see
Me a hip cat, me a ship′s cat
Somewhere, anywhere
That cat′s something I can′t explain
The night is crawling, shifting sand
Hiding around on the ground
He′ll be bound when you′re around
That cat′s something I can′t explain
You say the hill′s too steep to climb,
Trying it!
You say you′d like to see me try,
Climb it!
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 treeline and the clouds
I look down hear the sound of the things you said today
Fearlessly the idiot faced the crowd, smiling
Nothing waits, the magistrate turns ′round, frowning
I know the fool who wears the crown
Go down in your own way
And everyday is the right day
And as you rise above the fearlines in the frown
You look down
Hear the sound of the faces in the crowd
Oh my God, what a fabulous room!
Are all these your guitars?
This place is bigger than our apartment.
Uh, could I have a drink of water?
Ya want some? Huh?
Oh wow! Look at this tub!
Wanna take a bath?
What′re you watching?
Hello?
Are you feeling ok?
Day after day,
Our love turns gray,
Like the skin on a dying man.
And night after night,
We pretend it′s all right
A great day for freedom"
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 cane 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 neighbours 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 gray
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 bitted residue slipped away...slipped away
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, 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 sounds around
The icy waters under
Lime and limpid green, the sounds around
The icy waters underground.

I′ve got to get on with this
hold on john
I think there′s something good on
button your lip don′t let the shield slip
take a fresh grip on your bullet proof mask
and if they try to break down your disguise with their questions
you can hide hide hide
behind paranoid eyes
you put on your brave face and slip over the road for a jar
fixing your grin as you casually lean on the bar
laughing too loud at the rest of the world
with the boys in the crowd
you hide hide hide
behind petrified eyes
you believed in their stories of fame fortune and glory
now you′re lost in a haze of alchohol soft middle age
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 then 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.
Bridges burning gladly,
Merging with the shadows,
Flickering between the lines.
Stolen moments floating softly on the air,
Born on wings of fire and climbing higher.
Ancient bonds are breaking,
Moving on and changing sides.
Dreaming of a new day,
Cast aside the other way.
Magic visions stirring,
Kindled by and burning flames rise in her eyes.
The door stands ajar,
The wall that once were high.
Beyond the gilded cage,
Beyond the reach of ties.
The moment is at hand.
She breaks the golden band.
Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg
He won it in the war, in 1944.
Corporal Clegg had a medal too
In orange, red, and blue
He found it in the zoo.
Dear, dear were they really sad for me?
Dear, dear will they really laugh at me?
Mrs. Clegg, you must be proud of him.
Mrs. Clegg, another drop of gin.
Corporal Clegg umbrella in the rain
He′s never been the same
No one is to blame
Corporal Clegg recieved his medal in a dream
I was spending my time in the doldrums
I was caught in a cauldron of hate
I felt persecuted and paralysed
I thought that everything else would just wait
While you are wasting your time on your enemies
Engulfed in a fever of spite
Beyond your tunnel vision reality fades
Like shadows into the night
To martyr yourself to caution
Is not going to help at all
Because ther′ll be no safety in numbers
When the right one walks out of the door
Can you see your days blighted by darkness?
Is it true you beat your fists on the floor?
Stuck in a world of isolation
While the ivy grows over the door
So i open my door to my enemies
And i ask could we wipe the slate clean
But they tell me to please go fuck myself
You know you just can′t win
One sound, one single sound
One kiss, one single kiss
A face outside the window pane
However did it come to this?
A man who ran, a child who cried
A girl who heard, a voice that lied
The sun that burned a fiery red
The vision of an empty bed
The use of force, he was so tough
She′ll soon submit, she′s had enough
The march of fate, the broken will
Someone is lying very still
He has laughed and he has cried
He has fought and he has died
He′s just the same as all the rest
He′s not the worst, he′s not the best
And still this ceaseless murmuring
"Look mummy, there′s an aeroplane up in the sky"
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
Did you ever wonder why we had to run for shelter when the
Promise of a brave new world unfurled beneath a clear blue
Sky?
Did you see the frightened ones?
Did you hear the falling bombs?
The flames are all gone, but the pain lingers on.
Goodbye, blue sky
Goodbye, blue sky.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
Goodbye.
"The 11:15 from Newcastle is now approaching"
"The 11:18 arrival...."
A 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 returns 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 other course of heaven.
Things cannot be destroyed once and for all.
Change returns success
Going and coming without error.
Action brings good fortune.
Sunset, sunrise.

The path you tread is narrow and the drop is shear and very high
The ravens all are watching from a vantage point near by
Apprehension creeping like a choo-train up your spine
Will the tightrope reach the end; will the final cuplet rhyme
And it′s high time
Cymbaline
It′s high time
Cymbaline
Please wake me
Butterfly with broken wings is falling by your side
The ravens all are closing in there′s no where you can hide
Your manager and agent are both busy on the phone
Selling colored 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
Good morning, The Worm, Your Honour,
The Crown will plainly show,
The prisoner who now stands before you,
Was caught red-handed showing feelings.
Showing feelings of an almost human nature.
This will not do.
Call the schoolmaster!
I always said he′d come to no good,
In the end, Your Honour.
If they′d let me have my way,
I could have flayed him into shape.
But my hands were tied.
The bleeding hearts and artists,
Let him get away with murder.
Let me hammer him today.
Crazy.
Toys in the attic, I am crazy.
Home, home again
I like to be here when I can
when I come home cold and tired
it′s 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
We smile and smile
We smile and smile
Laughter echoes in your eyes
We climb and climb
We climb and climb
Footfall softly in the pines
We cry and cry
We cry and cry
Sadness passes in a while
We role and role
We role and role
Help me role away the stone
There was a king who ruled the land.
His majesty was in command.
With silver eyes the scarlet eagle
Showers silver on the people.
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.
Across the stream with wooden shoes
With bells to tell the king the news
A thousand misty riders climb up
Higher once upon a time.
Wandering and dreaming
The words have different meaning.
Yes they did.
For all the time spent in that room
The doll′s house, darkness, old perfume
And fairy sories held me high on
Clouds of sunlight floating by.
Oh Mother, tell me more
Tell me more.
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
Aaaaaaaah
When the fat old sun in the sky is falling,
Summer evening birds are calling.
Summer′s thunder time of year,
The sound of music in my ears.
Distant bells,
New mown grass smells so sweet.
Goodbye, cruel world,
I′m leaving you today.
Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
Goodbye all you people,
There′s nothing you can say,
To make me change my mind.
Goodbye.
I′m so afraid of mistakes that I made
Taking every time that I wake
I feel like a hard-boiled butter man
So give me a time when the countries will lie on the storyline if kind
Are days are made since the first page
I′ve lived every line that you wrote
Take me down, take me down, from the shelf above your head
So give me a time when the countries will lie on the storyline if kind
Remember a day before today
A day when you were young.
Free to play alone with time
Evening never came.
Sing a song that can′t be sung
Without the morning′s kiss
Queen-you shall be it if you wish
Look for your king
Why can′t we play today
Why can′t we stay that way
Climb your favorite apple tree
Try to catch the sun
Hide from your little brother′s gun
Dream yourself away
Why can′t we reach the sun
Why can′t we blow the years away
Blow away
Blow away
Remember
Remember
they disembarked in 45
and no one spoke and no one smiled
there were too many spaces in the line
gathered at the cenotaph
all agreed with hand on heart
to sheath the sacrificial knifes
but now
she stands upon southampton dock
with her handkerchief
and her summer frock clings
to her wet body in the rain
in quiet desperation knuckles
white upon the slippery reins
she bravely waves the boys goodbye again
and still the dark stain spreads between
his shoulder blades
a mute reminder of the poppy fields and graves
and when the fight was over
we spent what they had made
but in the bottom of our hearts
we felt the final cut
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 forbodings 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 ′till 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.
tell me true tell me why was jesus crucified
is it for this that daddy died?
Was it for you? Was it me?
Did I watch too much t.v.?
Is that a hint of accusation in your eyes?
If it wasn′t for the nips
being so good at building ships
the yards would still be open on the clyde
and it can′t be much fun for them
beneath the rising sun
with all their kids committing suicide
what have we done maggie what have we done
what have we done to england
should we shout should we scream
′′what happened to the post war dream?′′
oh maggie maggie what have we done?
