about

The lyrical inspiration for this song came from 2 quite different sources;
1. I read that one of Syd Barrett's favorite books was 'The Little Grey Men' by BB (D. J. Watkins-Pitchford). The opening of the first verse is a quote from the front of that book.
2. The original Cockspur Bajun Rum label had a lovely quote about life wich I have taken for the second verse.

lyrics

'The wonder of the world, the beauty and the power, the shapes of things, their colours, lights and shades; these I saw. Lokk ye also while (your) life lasts'.
(BB, 1942)
'Teckin' time out 'ent laziness'
(Original Cockspur Bajun Rum label)
