Clowns and Jugglers Lyrics - Pink Floyd
Review The Song (4)
Trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
you have no word
trip, trip to a dream dragon
hide your wings in a ghost tower
sails cackling at every plate we break
was cracked by scattered needles
the little minute gong
coughs and clears his throat
madam you see before you stand
hey ho, never be still
the old original favorite grand
grasshoppers green Herbarian band
and the tune they play is "In Us Confide"
so trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
you have no word
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
meant even less to me than I thought
with a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
clover honey pots and mystic shining feed...
the madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the Talbot
the winds they blew and the leaves did wag
they'll never put me in their bag
the raging seas will always seep
so high you go, so low you creep
the wind it blows in tropical heat
the drones they throng on mossy seats
the squeaking door will always squeak
two up, two down we'll never meet
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Sit up, touching hips
to a madcap galloping chase
"Cheat" he cried shouting kangaroo
it's true in their tree they cried
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
The madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the Talbot
you have no word
trip, trip to a dream dragon
hide your wings in a ghost tower
sails cackling at every plate we break
was cracked by scattered needles
the little minute gong
coughs and clears his throat
madam you see before you stand
hey ho, never be still
the old original favorite grand
grasshoppers green Herbarian band
and the tune they play is "In Us Confide"
so trip to heave and ho, up down, to and fro'
you have no word
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Isn't it good to be lost in the wood
isn't it bad so quiet there, in the wood
meant even less to me than I thought
with a honey plough of yellow prickly seeds
clover honey pots and mystic shining feed...
the madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the Talbot
the winds they blew and the leaves did wag
they'll never put me in their bag
the raging seas will always seep
so high you go, so low you creep
the wind it blows in tropical heat
the drones they throng on mossy seats
the squeaking door will always squeak
two up, two down we'll never meet
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
Sit up, touching hips
to a madcap galloping chase
"Cheat" he cried shouting kangaroo
it's true in their tree they cried
Please leave us here
close our eyes to the octopus ride!
The madcap laughed at the man on the border
hey ho, huff the Talbot

Song Meaning??? | Reviewer: mpop | 7/8/10
This song was stuck in my head all day! I want to draw it, but I need some help figuring out what it means. please help me honour the memory of Syd by posting your ideas and info! :)
(any comments pertaining to "something he wrote on a head-full of acid" are not welcome)
WTF sing365 | Reviewer: Jerry | 1/2/10
Its bad enough that these are the lyrics to Octopus, NOT Clowns and Jugglers, but its really fucked up how you guys keep labeling Syd Barrett solo songs as Pink Floyd. The guy is severely underrated as it is, and you're basically shitting on the memory of a genius songwriter. Please stop.
oops | Reviewer: Jerry | 1/2/10
Ok this is a version of Octopus, found on Opel... but still! It should be credited to Barrett! Except I think you have a version of the lyrics on here credited to Barrett, so it can't do any harm, if anything it might turn more Floyd fans on to Syd, which would be awesome.
THIS IS SYD | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/15/07
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? YOUR LISTINGS FOR ALL OF SYD'S SOLO ALBUMS ARE ATTRIBUTED TO THE FLOYD. ONCE AGAIN, SYD IS GETTING DISSED.
