	the best floyd song from the syd barret era inho

Kyle Average	#2 by Kyle Bish at Jan 14, 2007 at 11:30 AM EST
	craigus's corrected lyrics are way better than the ones originally posted, but isn't the ending "the sound surrounds the icy waters underground" as in the orignal posting? That's what I hear in the song, anyway.

jacob Average	#3 by jacob ap at Feb 21, 2007 at 9:17 AM EST
	Gah, wrong title, then wrong lyrics!

sebastian Professional	#4 by sebastian at Jul 9, 2007 at 9:24 PM EST
	Once again wrong lyrics 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 around the icy waters under Lime and limpid green, the sounds around the icy waters underground

	I think it's very hard to describe the meaning of this song exactly. Like all of the early-period Floyd songs, it's very hard for us to guess what was going through Syd's mind at the time of writing. Sure it's nice to try, but only Syd can understand, really.

Christian Wanna Be	#6 by Christian Chavez at Oct 13, 2007 at 8:32 AM EST
	This Song gives the feeling of space travel, and the lyrics describe what you are seeing. At the beginning their is a countdown then the song takes off, then he's describing the earth.
