Thanks Rick, I appreciate your comments.

Just in case our readers haven’t hear of Pink Floyd:

The Piper at the Gates of Dawn (1967)
Pink Floyd
Pink Floyd’s first LP and the only LP that was made under the leadership of Syd Barrett. Almost all of the songs were written by Barrett. The title of the album comes from one of Barrett’s favourite books entitled: The Wind in the Willows by Kenneth Grahame.
Astronomy Domine
(Barrett) 4:12

Lime and limpid green, a second scene
A fight between the blue you once knew.
Floating down, the sound resounds
Around the icy waters underground.
Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda
And Titania, Neptune, Titan.
Stars can frighten.


Blinding signs flap,
Flicker, flicker, flicker blam. Pow, pow.
Stairway scare Dan Dare who's there?
Lime and limpid green
The sounds surrounds the icy waters underground
Lime and limpid green
The sounds surrounds the icy waters underground.
