Let There Be More Light
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 flowing robes
Was Lucy in the sky
Oh oh did you ever
No no never ever will they
I'll say
Summoning his cosmic powers
And glowing slightly from his toes
The psychic emenations flowed
Remember A Day
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...
Remember... remember...
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Little by little the night turns around
Counting the leaves which tremble at dawn
Lotuses lean on each other in yearning
Under the eaves the swallow is resting
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
Over the mountain watching the watcher
Breaking the darkness, breaking the grapevine
One inch of love is one inch of shadow
Love is the shadow that ripens the vine
Set the controls for the heart of the sun
...the heart of the sun
Witness the man who raves at the wall
Making the shape of his question 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
Corporal Clegg
Corporal Clegg had a wooden leg
He won it in the war, in nineteen forty-four
Corporal Clegg had a medal too
In orange 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?
Mrs. Clegg, you must be proud of him
Mrs. Clegg, another drop of gin
Corporal Clegg, umbrella in the rain
He's never been the same, no one is to blame
Corporal Clegg received his medal in a dream
From Her Majesty the Queen - his boots were very clean
Mrs. Clegg, you must be proud of him
Mrs. Clegg, another drop of gin
Corporal Clegg
See Saw
Marigolds are very much in love
But he doesn't mind
Picking up his sister
He makes his way to the see-saw land
All the way she smiles
She goes up while 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'll 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
Jugband blues
It's awfully considerate of you to think of me there
And I'm most obliged to you for making it clear
That I'm not there
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?
