Lightbulb WRONG!!!:Syd SOLO Lyrics Typos CAN change meanings!

The following corrections should be made to all those Barrett solo lyricsites out there,which all seem to have the same errors.
Since I'm new here, i must apologize ahead of time if anyone suffers from the redundancy of the following typo references. it's extremely likely they have all been discussed ad nauseum.....

It is Obvious/ Mind Shot
the words--"your stars my stars are simple cock bars" that SHOULD be---"simple cot bars" with all the cupboard creeping and hall laying, Syd lying on his back under a bed with a snugglepal isn't so hard to envision.

Dominoes
i've seen it on the lyric sites--- "losing when my mind's astray"
Should read--- "losing wind, my mind's astray" perhaps a reference to the occasional breathlessness of his vocals.

Waving my Arms/ I never Lied to You
more of an interpretation--this i have seen phrased as a question.
i take it as a statement; syd resigned to his fate of being alone without love, in a cold recording studio, apartment, cellar etc....
"...Be with you, to be alone can only be why I am here, what's meant to be."

I am new here so I don't know how many times these typos have came up in topic but 2 that kill me are

Terrapin:

The clown is dark- he is clearly saying the clam is dark, how did they come up with clown??


She Took A Long Cold Look:

lazing here on a painting dream- he is saying painting green, I have listened to it over and over and it is green.

Sorry, just wanted to clear that up!
