For my own parts I never had thoughts which I could not set to words with even more distinctiveness in the manner I conceived it ;There is however a class of fancy and which are not thoughts,and to which is as yet I found it absolutely impossible to adopt to language.These thoughts & fantasies which arise in the soul;ALAS! however only at the time ofintense tanquility; when the body & mind in perfect combination;Just like when you listen to the Musicof Pink Floyd!So I captured this fancy ,when all that we see or seem is but a Dream Within A Dream.
Sorry BOAB & party,I never meant to ofend you all,as i knew not that you find me irritating,but my intension behind using your names was to point out that these are the folks who are sincerely into PINK FLOYD & do not fool around like some of us.All Apologies.Never shall i relate to you any posts from now on.

Et Tu Brute ??

Ummm...thanks. I think.

Their minds say gotcha heart
Lets move it along

And airports see it all the time
When someone's last goodbye
Blends in with someone's sigh
Cos someone's coming home
In hand a single rose

No trophy, no flowers, no flashbulbs, no wine,
He's haunted by something he cannot define.
Bowel-shaking earthquakes of doubt and remorse,
Assail him, impale him with monster-truck force.
In his mind, he's still driving,still making the grade.
She's hoping in time that her memories will fade.
Cause he's racing and pacing and plotting the course,
He's fighting and biting and riding on his horse.
The sun has gone down and the moon has come up,
And long ago somebody left with the cup.
But he's striving and driving and hugging the turns.
And thinking of someone for whom he still burns.

from The Distance

I feel like dancing, in the rain,
can I have a volunteer?
Just keep right on dancing,
what a damn jolly good idea!

Take your little brother swimming
with a brick, (that's alright.)

-Queen, Tie Your Mother Down

Everything under the sun is tune,
but the sun is eclipsed by the moon.

-Pink Floyd, Dark Side of the Moon

Ch-ch-ch-ch Chances,
Turn and face the strange
Ch-ch-Changes,
Don't tell them to grow up and out of it.

-David Bowie, Changes

Mother, post the whole damn song... there are lines better than that, take for example

"if you want a friend feed any animal"

No, but it's just after that bit though, maybe thirty seconds I think.
