[Intro: Peter Jenner]

“Moon in twelve thousand

… one … Scorpio … braving the skies …

Libra … Portalia … Mao … Lapintin … Roscoe Thomas …

Pluto was not discovered until 1930

… nine two three select …

Mars is in conjunction with a fixed star of

… reduce, execute now if possible …”

[Verse 1: Syd Barrett & Richard Wright]

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

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 2: Syd Barrett & Richard Wright]

Blinding signs flap

Flicker, flicker, flicker, blam

Pow, pow

Stairway scare Dan Dare, who’s there?

[Verse 3: Syd Barrett & Syd Barrett & Richard Wright]

Lime and limpid green, the sound surrounds

The icy waters under—

Lime and limpid green, the sound surrounds

The icy waters underground

*Scream*

[Verse 1]

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

[Refrain]

Set the controls for the heart of the sun

[Verse 2]

Over the mountain, watching the watcher

Breaking the darkness, waking the grapevine

One inch of love is one inch of shadow

Love is the shadow that ripens the wine

[Refrain]

Set the controls for the heart of the sun

[Interlude]

(The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun…)

[Verse 3]

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?

[Refrain]

Set the controls for the heart of the sun

[Outro]

(The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun

The heart of the sun, the heart of the sun…)
