Syd Barrett
It Is Obvious (take 5)
It is obvious, take 5
Do that rhythm that you were just playing, just then (Which one?)
That one you just tried, just a minute ago
Yeah okay, off you go
It is obvious
May I say, oh baby, that it is found on another plane?
Yes I can creep into cupboards, even sleep in the hall
Your stars, my stars, a simple cot bars
Only an impulse
Mumble listen dolly
Drift over your mind, holly
Creep into bed when your head's on the ground
Reason it is written on the brambles
Stranded on the spikes, my blood red, oh listen
Remember those times I could call
Through the clear daytime and you'd be there
Braver and braver, a handkerchief waver
The louder your lips to a loud hailer
Growing together, the good of each other
On a wondering, stumbling, fumbling, rumbling
Minds shot together, our minds shot together
So equally over a valley, a hill
Wood on quarry stood
Each of us crying
Velvet curtain of grey
Mark the blanket where the sparrows play
And the trees by the waving corn stranded
My legs move the last empty inches to you
The softness, the warmth from the weather in suspense
Mote to a grog, star of white chalk
Minds shot together, our minds shot together
