Lyrics Syd Barrett

Syd Barrett

No Good Trying

It's no good trying to place your hand

Where I can't see because I understand

That you're different from me

Yes I can tell

That you can't be what you pretend

And you're rocking me backwards

And you're rocking towards the

Red and yellow mane of a stallion horse.

It's no good trying to hold your love

Where I can't see because I understand

That you're different from me

Yes I can tell

That you can't be what you pretend

The caterpillar hood won't cover the head of you

Know you should be home in bed.

It's no good holding your sequin fan

Where I can't see because I understand

That you're different from me

Yes I can tell

That you can't be what you pretend

Yes you're spinning around and around in a car

With electric lights flashing very fast...
