A Saucerful of Secrets” Lyrics

Let There Be More Light

(Waters) 5:38

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 him there and

Knew the road revealed to him

The living soul of 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 service men were heard to sigh

For there revealed in glowing robes

Was Lucy in the sky

Oh - oh - did you ever know - know

Never ever will they

I cannot say

Something in his cosmic art

And glowing slightly from his toes

His psychic emanations flowed

“Remember a Day”

(Wright) 4:33

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

“Set the Controls for the Heart of the Sun”

(Waters) 5:28

Little by little the night turns around.

Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn.

Lotuses lean on each other in yearning.

Under the eaves the swallow is resting.

Set the controls for the heart of the sun.

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 raves 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”

(Waters) 4:12

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 received his medal in a dream

From Her Majesty the queen

His boots were very clean.

Mrs. Clegg, you must be proud of him

Mrs. Clegg, another drop of gin.

“See Saw”

(Wright) 4:36

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

“Jugband Blues”

(Barrett) 2:59

It's awfully considerate of you to think of me here

And I'm much obliged to you for making it clear that I'm not here.

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

And I'm wondering who could be writing this song.

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.

And the sea isn't green

And I love the Queen

And what exactly is a dream

And what exactly is a joke.
