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 (Wright)
Remember a day before today A day when you were young Free to play along with time
Evening never comes
Sing a song that can't be sung Without the morning's kiss Queen you shall be if you wish Look for your king
Why can't we play today Why can't we stay that way
Climb your favourite 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)
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn Lotus's lean on each other in yearning Over the hills 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 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 (Waters)
Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg He won it in the war in nineteen forty four
Corporal Clegg had a medal too In orange, red and blue He found it in the zoo
Dear, oh dear, oh are they really sad for me? Dear, oh dear, oh will they really laugh at me?
Missus Clegg, you must be proud of him Missus 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
From her Majesty, the Queen His boots were very clean
Missus Clegg, you must be proud of him Missus Clegg, another drop of gin?
Corporal Clegg Corporal Clegg (...)
All right men -- in you go!
(...)
Corporal Clegg (...)

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 (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
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?
