    GOODNIGHT & ENJOY
    SYD BARRETT octopus

    Trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
    you have no word
    trip, trip to a dream dragon
    hide your wings in a ghost tower
    sails crackiling at ev'ry plate we break
    cracked by scattered needles
    little minute gong
    coughs and clears his throat
    madam you see before you stand
    hey ho, never be still
    the old original favourite gran
    grasshoppers green herbarian band
    and the tune they play in us confide...
    so trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
    you have no word
    Please leave us here
    close our eyes to the octopus ride!
    Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
    isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
    twenty even less to me than I thought
    with a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
    clover honey pots and mystic shining feed...
    well, the madcap laughed at the man on the border
    hey ho, huff the talbot
    Cheetah he cried shouted kangaroo
    so through their tree they cried
    Please leave us here
    close our eyes to the octopus ride!
    The madcap laughed at the man on the border
    hey ho, huff the talbot
    the winds they blew and the leaves did wag
    and they'll never put me in their bag
    the seas will reach and always see
    so high you go, so low you creep
    the winds it blows in tropical heat
    the drones they throng on mossy seats
    the squeaking door will always creep
    two up, two down we'll never meet
    so merrily trip for good my side
    Please leave us here
    close our eyes to the octopus ride
