Picture yourself in a boat on a river
With tangerine trees and marmalade skies
Somebody calls you, you answer quite slowly
A girl with kaleidoscope eyes
Cellophane flowers of yellow and green
Towering over your head
Look for the girl with the sun in her eyes and she’s gone
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Lucy in the sky with diamonds
Here comes the sun
Here comes the sun (I say)
It’s all right
Sunshine go away today
I don’t feel much like dancing
Some man’s gone, he’s tried to run my life
He don’t know what he’s asking
The lunatic is in my head
The lunatic is in my head
You raise the blade, you make the change
You rearrange me ’ till I’m sane
You lock the door
And throw away the key
There’s someone in my head but it’s not me
I see a ship from a golden sky
I sent a message, will they understand it?
Computer’s ready but to overload
This isn’t happening the way I planned it
It’s not me talking
It’s not me talking
Your soul and mine will carry on
When this transparent world is gone
There’s nothing strange in what I say
It’s always meant to be this way
Power streams where love is strong
Energy converts, never gone
There’s never going to be an end
A million atoms can’t pretend
Until the cold ground swallows me
Me and Ide, go running free
Then we’ll change, not disappear
All channels receiving loud and clear
And when one of us is gone,
And one of us is left to carry on,
Then remembering will have to do,
Our memories alone will get us through
Think about the days of me and you,
You and me against the world.
And when I die, and when I’m gone
There’ll be one child born
In this world
To carry on, to carry on
Wonderful baby livin’ on love
The sandman says maybe he’ll take you above,
Up where the girls fly on ribbons and bows,
Where babies float by just
Counting their toes.
I’ll tuck you in, warm within
Keep you free from sin
Till the Sandman he comes
Sleep with one eye open
Gripping your pillow tight
Exit: light
Enter: night
Take my hand
We’re off to never never land
It’s not far to never-never land, no reason to pretend
And if the wind is right you can find the joy of innocence again
Oh, the canvas can do miracles, just you wait and see
Believe me
Sailing takes me away to where I’ve always heard it could be
Just a dream and the wind to carry me
And soon I will be free
I look to the sea, reflections in the waves spark my memory
Some happy, some sad
I think of childhood friends and the dreams we had
We live happily forever, so the story 's told
But somehow we missed out on that pot of gold
But we’ll try best that we can to carry on
Ocean gypsy of the moon
The sun has made a thousand nights
For you to hold
Ocean gypsy where are you?
The shadows followed by the stars
Have turned to gold, turned to gold
My Maria there were some blue and sorrow times
Just my thoughts about you bring back my peace of mind
Gypsy lady you’re a miracle work for me
You set my soul free like a ship sailing on the sea
So take a letter Maria…address it to my wife
Say I won’t be coming home…gotta start a new life
Gimme a ticket for an aeroplane
Ain’t got time to take a fast train
Lonely days are gone, I’m-a goin’ home
My baby just-a wrote me a letter
Gonna buy a tank and an aeroplane
When she catches up with me
Won’t be no time to explain
She thinks I’ve been with another woman
And that’s enough to send her half insane
I hear the roar of the big machine
Two worlds and in between
Love lost, fire at will
Dum-dum bullets and shoot to kill, I hear
Dive bombers, and
Empire down
Empire down
At the Pentagon he’ll rise
The President he will advise
His reputation growing all the while.
With his picture on the wall
He’ll get that long awaited call.
And press the firing buttons with a smile.
So buy a gun for your son right away, sir
Shake his hand like a man and let him play, sir.
Let his little mind expand, place a weapon in his hand
For the skills he learns today will some day pay, sir.
Heigh ho!
Do you know,
The names of the U.S. residents
Who then became the Presidents
And got a view from the White House loo
Of Pennsylvania Avenue
