BEST SYD BARRETT HOMEPAGE

[littledavid]

www.pink-floyd.org/barrett/

ABSOLUTE BEST
BEST INTERVIEWS ETC
MY CRAZED ITALIAN FRIEND VITTORIO MOCCHIA STARTED THIS YEARS AGO AND I TRIED TO HELP HIM WITH THE WORDS
AS I'VE HAD THEM ALL MEMORIZED
EVERY SINGLE WORD TO EVERY SONG HE EVER DID
SINCE THE ALBUMS CAME OUT
SO I AM LISTED AS THE CHIEF DEBUGGER
IS THAT AN HONOR?
OH WELL
AS WINNIE CHURCHILL ALWAYS WROTE AT THE END OF HIS SPEECHES
KBO
ONE DAY SOMEONE HAD TO EXPLAIN TO ROOSEVELT THAT MEANT KEEP BUGGERING ON

VITTO STILL GETS SOME WORDS WRONG
IT'S DIMPLES DANGEROUS AND BLESS'D
NOT PIMPLES!

AND THAT HOUSE HE HAS POSTED FROM A SATELLITE PIC IS NOT SYD'S HOUSE
THEY HAVE ANOTHER PIC OF HIS HOUSE
BUT YOU CAN SEE THE ROOF AND OTHER STUFF
IS DIFFERENT

OTHER THAN THAT IT'S THE BEST OUT THERE
STUFF BY SYD HIMSELF
AND HIS NEPHEW
AND OLD BANDMATES BEFORE FLOYD
REALY THE BEST THERE IS

[littledavid]

WELL, I'LL BE DANGED!

THEY CHANGED IT TO DIMPLES!

they still got a coupla things wrong
it's "allll NIGHT!
greasy tv peace fiend
sayin
that's love
yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah
that's love"...

(he was singing about john lennon because--well various reasons
it's impolite so speak of the dead)

and it's "love: an empty silent guest"
not son and guess

but they took those pimples out and got the blessed dimples in so i'm happy
and so is syd i bet



RATS

Got it hit down
spot knock inside a spider
says: "That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
"That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
says: "That's love - All know it
TV, teeth, feet, peace, feel it...
"That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"
"That's love yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!"

like the fall that brings me to
I like the fall that brings me to
I like the cord around sinew
I make a cord around sinew

Duck, the way to least is less
The deep craving of the metal west
'ell tomorrow's rain and test
'ell tomorrow's rain and test
Love an empty sun and guess
Love an empty sun and guess
dimples dangerous and blessed

Heaving, arriving, tinkling
mingling jets and statuettes
seething wet we meeting fleck
seething wet we meeting fleck
lines and winds and crib and half
each fair day I give you half
of each fair day I give you half
I look into your eyes and you,
flathe in the sun for you...

Bam, spastic, tactile engine
heaving, crackle, slinky, dormy, roofy, wham
I'll have them, fried bloke
broken jardy, cardy, smoocho, moocho, paki, pufftle
sploshette moxy, very smelly,
cable, gable, splintra, channel
top the seam he's taken off

rats, rats lay down flat
we don't need you, we act like that
and if you think you're un-loved
then we know about that...
rats, rats, lay down flat!
yes, yes, yes, yes, lay down flat!

This is a sketch of Syd's girlfriend's nephew in the mid-sixties
which he "knocked off in about two minutes"
according to her

OK:

HEAVING WRITHING TINKLING INK
MINGLING JETS AND STATUETTES
SEETHING WET WE MEETING FLECK
SEETHING WET WE (MATING?) FLECK
LINES AND WINDS AND CRIBBIDGE LAUGH
AND EACH FAIR DAY I GIVE YOU HALF
OF EACH FAIR DAY I GIVE YOU HAVE
I LOOK INTO YOUR EYES
AND YOU
PLAY 'PIN THE SUN FOR YOU'

THEN IN THE NEXT VERSE YOU SEE WHY I HAVE "I'LL HAVE MINE FRIED, BLOKE"
UNDER THE CRAZED ELECTRIFIED BLUEBIRD ON EVERY PAGE OF MY WEBSITE ;D ;D
