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 crackiling at ev'ry plate we break
Cracked by scattered needles
Little minute gong
Coughs and clears his throat
Madam you see before you stand
Hey ho, never be still
The old original favourite gran
Grasshoppers green herbarian band
And the tune they play 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
Twenty 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
Cheetah he cried shouted kangaroo
So through their tree they cried
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
And they'll never put me in their bag
The seas will reach and always see
So high you go, so low you creep
The winds it blows in tropical heat
The drones they throng on mossy seats
The squeaking door will always creep
Two up, two down we'll never meet
So merrily trip for good my side
Please leave us here
Close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Roger Keith Barrett, known as Syd Barrett, was a British singer-songwriter, guitarist, and composer considered one of the pioneers of psychedelic rock. Born in Cambridge in 1946, Barrett founded Pink Floyd in 1965 with Nick Mason, Roger Waters, and Richard Wright. As frontman and primary songwriter for the band's early material, he played a crucial role in their initial success with albums like "The Piper at the Gates of Dawn" (1967), considered a masterpiece of psychedelic rock. Barrett left Pink Floyd in 1968 due to mental health issues, likely caused by excessive drug use. After leaving the band, Barrett continued to record music as a solo artist but without achieving previous success. Despite his short career with Pink Floyd, Syd Barrett remains an icon of psychedelic rock and a legendary figure for his innovative and visionary songs, such as "Astronomy Domine", "See Emily Play", and "Interstellar Overdrive".
