LET THERE BE MORE LIGHT
Let There Be More Light (Waters)
Far, far, far, far away, way
People heard him say, say
I will find a way, way
There will come a day, day
Something will be done
Then at last the mighty ship
descending on a point of flame
Made contact with the human race
at Mildenhall
Now, now, now is the time, time, time
To be, be, be aware
Carter's father saw it there
And knew the Rhull revealed to him
The living soul of Hereward the Wake
Oh my, something in my eye, eye
Something in the sky, sky
Waiting there for me
The outer lock rolled slowly back
The servicemen were heard to sigh
For there revealed in glowing robes
was Lucy in the sky
Oh, oh, did you ever
No, no, never ever will they
I'll say
Summoning his cosmic power
And glowing slightly from his toes
His psychic emanations flowed
REMEMBER A DAY
Remember a Day (Wright) Why can't we play today |
Erinnerungen an einen Tag |
SET THE CONTROLS FOR THE HEART OF THE SUN
Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun (Waters)
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
Lotus's lean on each other in yearning
Under the eaves the swallow is resting
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Kurs auf das Herz der Sonne (Waters)
Nach und nach verschwindet die Nacht
Zählt die zitternden Blätter in der Dämmerung
Lotuse
Unter der Traufe ruht eine Schwalbe
Setzt den Kurs auf das Herz der Sonne
Over the mountain watching the watcher
Breaking the darkness waking the grapevine
One inch of love is one inch of 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
(...)
Witness the man who waves at the wall
Making the shape of his questions to heaven
Whether 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

CORPORAL CLEGG
Corporal Clegg (Waters)
Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg
He won it in the war
in nineteen forty four
Corporal Clegg hatte ein hölzernes Bein
Er gewann es im Krieg
um Neunzehn Vierundvierzig
Corporal Clegg had a medal too
In orange, red and blue
He found it in the zoo
Corporal Clegg besaß auch einen Orden
in orange rot und blau.
Er fand ihn im Zoo.
Dear, oh dear, oh are they really sad for me?
Dear, oh dear, oh will they really laugh at me?
Ohje, ohje, oh, sind sie wirklich böse auf mich?
Ohje, ohje, oh, werden sie wirklich über mich lachen?
Missus Clegg, you must be proud of him
Missus Clegg, another drop of gin
Frau Clegg, Sie können stolz auf ihn sein
Frau Clegg, noch ein Schlückchen Gin?
Corporal Clegg, umbrella in the rain
He's never been the same
No one is to blame
Corporal Clegg, ein Schirm im Regen
Er ist nie wieder der alte geworden
Niemand ist schuld
Corporal Clegg recieved his medal in a dream
From her Majesty, the Queen
His boots were very clean
Corporal Clegg erhielt seinen Orden im Traum
von Ihrer Majestät, der Königin
Seine Stiefel waren sehr sauber
Missus Clegg, you must be proud of him
Missus Clegg, another drop of gin?
Frau Clegg, Sie können stolz auf ihn sein
Frau Clegg, noch ein Schlückchen Gin?

SEE‐SAW
See Saw (Wright)
Marigolds are very much in love
But he doesn't mind
Picking up sister
He makes his way into the see-saw land
All the way up she smiles
She goes up as 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's 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
JUGBAND BLUES
Jugband Blues (Barrett)
It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here
And I'm most obliged to you for making it clear
That I'm not here
Es ist schrecklich rücksichtsvoll von euch an mich hier zu denken
Und ich bin euch sehr verpflichtet, es völlig klar zu machen
daß ich nicht da bin.
And I never knew the moon could be so big
And I never knew the moon could be so blue
And I'm grateful that you threw away my old shoes
And brought me here instead dressed in red
Und ich wußte nie, daß der Mond so groß sein kann
Und ich wußte nie, daß der Mond so blau sein kann
Und ich bin dankbar, daß ihr meine alten Schuhe weggeworfen habt.
Und mich stattdessen in rot hierhergebracht habt.
And I'm wondering who could be writing this song
Und ich frage mich, wer so ein Lied wohl schreiben mag
I don't care if the sun don't shine
And I don't care if nothing is mine
And I don't care if I'm nervous with you
I'll do my loving in the Winter
Es macht mir nichts aus, wenn die Sonne nicht scheint
Und es macht mir nichts aus, wenn mir nichts gehört
Ich werde eben im Winter lieben
And the sea isn't green
And I love the Queen
And what exactly is a dream?
And what exactly is a joke?
Und das Meer ist nicht grün
Und was genau ist ein Traum?
Und was genau ist ein Scherz?
