Arnold Layne had a strange hobby - collecting clothes
Moonshine, washing line
They suit him fine.
On the wall hung a tall mirror
Distorted view
See thru' baby blue.
He dug it - oh Arnold Layne
It's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know
Why can't you see
Arnold Layne.
Now he's caught
A nasty sort of person
They gave him time
Doors clang, chain gang.
He hates it - Oh Arnold Layne
It's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know
Why can't you see
Arnold Layne
Don't do it again.
Candy And A Currant Bun.
(Barrett)
Let's Roll Another One
Oh my girl sitting in the sky
Go buy candy and encouragement
I like to see you cry
Lay back
Oooh, don't talk to me
Please, just fuck with me
Please you know I'm feeling frail
Talk, talk, talk to me
Please just walk with me
Please no feeling frail
It's true sun's shining very bright
It's you I'm gonna love tonight
Ice cream tastes good in the afternoon
Ice cream tastes good if you eat it soon
Ooh, don't touch me child
Please - no !
You drive me wild
Please you know I'm feeling frail
Don't try another cat
Don't go where other you must know why
Ver very very frail
Oh my girl sitting in the sun
Go buy candy and a currant bun
I like to see you run
Like that...
Oh my girl fading in the sun
Go buy a candy and a currant bun
I'm high! Don't try to spoil the fun
Go cry or I'll have another one
Ooh don't touch me child
Please, you know you drive me wild
Please, you know I'm feeling frail
Ooh don't talk to me
Please, just walk with me
Please, you know I'm feeling frail
It's true sun's shining very bright
It's you I'm gonna love tonight
Ice cream tastes good if you eat it right
Ice cream tastes good if you treat it right
Ooh don't talk to me
Please, you know you drive me wild
Please, you know I'm feeling frail
Oh my girl fading in the sun
Go buy a candy and a currant bun
I'm high don't try to spoil the fun
Go cry or I'll have another one

"Arnold Layne" fue el primer sencillo de la banda de rock Pink Floyd, lanzado en 1967. La canción fue compuesta por Syd Barrett, y aunque la pieza no aparece en el primer álbum del grupo (The Piper at the Gates of Dawn) es considerada como uno de los mejores trabajos de los primeros años de la banda.
ResponderEliminarEl personaje central de la canción es alguien cuyo pasatiempo consiste en robar ropa de mujeres encontrada en tendederos. Pese a llegar al número 20 en los listados de música del Reino Unido, la canción atrajo la ira de la emisora Radio London, que retiró después de poco tiempo la canción de su programación.
