"Astronomy Domine"
Lime and limpid green, a second sceneA fight between the blue you once knew.Floating down, the sound resoundsAround the icy waters underground.Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda and Titania.Neptune, Titan, Stars can frighten.Lime and limpid green, a second sceneA fight between the blue you once knew.Floating down, the sound resoundsAround 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 aroundThe icy waters underLime and limpid green, the sounds aroundThe icy waters underground.
"Lucifer Sam"
Lucifer Sam, siam cat.Always sitting by your sideAlways by your side.That cat's something I can't explain.Ginger, ginger, Jennifer Gentle you're a witch.
You're the left sideHe'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.At night prowling sifting sand.Hiding around on the ground.He'll be found when you're around.That cat's something I can't explain.
"Matilda Mother"
There was a king who ruled the land.His majesty was in command.With silver eyes the scarlet eagleShowers silver on the people.Oh Mother, tell me more.Why'd'ya have to leave me thereHanging in my infant airWaiting?You only have to read the linesThey're scribbly black and everything shines.Across the stream with wooden shoesWith bells to tell the king the newsA thousand misty riders climb upHigher once upon a time.Wandering and dreamingThe words have different meaning.Yes they did.For all the time spent in that roomThe doll's house, darkness, old perfumeAnd fairy sories held me high onClouds of sunlight floating by.Oh Mother, tell me moreTell me more.AaaaaaaahAaaaaaaahAaaaaaaah
"Flaming"
Alone in the clouds all blueLying on an eiderdown.Yippee! You can't see meBut I can you.Lazing in the foggy dewSitting on a unicorn.No fair, you can't hear meBut I can you.Watching buttercups cup the lightSleeping on a dandelion.Too much, I won't touch youBut then I might.
Screaming through the starlit skyTravelling by telephone.Hey ho, here we goEver so high.Alone in the clouds all blueLying on an eiderdown.Yippee! You can't see meBut I can you.
"Take Up Thy Stethescope And Walk"
Doctor doctor!I'm in bedAchin' headGold is leadChoke on breadUnderfedGold is leadJesus bledPain is redAre goonGrow goGreasy spoonYou swoonJune bloomMusic seems to help the painSeems to cultivate the brain.Doctor kindly tell your wife thatI'm alive - flowers thrive - realize - realizeRealize.
"The Gnome"
I want to tell you a storyAbout a little manIf 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 adventureAmidst the grassFresh air at last.Wining, dining, biding his time.And then one day - hooray!Another way for gnomes to sayHoooooooooray.Look at the sky, look at the riverIsn't it good?Look at the sky, look at the riverIsn't it good?Winding, finding places to go.And then one day - hooray!Another way for gnomes to say
