Puppet Song LP Version - The Incredible String Band[00:00:00]
Now you may have observed if you walk into a wall[00:00:00]
You get a certain sensation of reality[00:00:04]
When you take a look through your memory book[00:00:08]
You may perceive a certain rhythmic regularity[00:00:12]
The crazy things your mind gets up to when you're away[00:00:16]
Throwing clouds of rain over brightest day[00:00:24]
There was once a little man[00:00:34]
He worked all day and slept all night[00:00:37]
He looked at the sun[00:00:42]
It didn't seem bright it didn't seen right[00:00:44]
He wondered did the world go rolling along on its own[00:00:56]
Or did some spirit move it with a black cat bone[00:01:04]
And he set out to find the causes behind[00:01:11]
The events in the world[00:01:15]
And the seasons of the mind[00:01:17]
So he asked his wife about it and his wife said yes[00:01:22]
Come back and see me if it's time to know less[00:01:25]
You do too much aquestioning of the world at large[00:01:29]
Everybody knows the politician's in charge[00:01:33]
So he went to the Kinghouse just the next day[00:01:37]
To see that politician with his hair dyed grey[00:01:40]
Jump down turn around blow you up or kiss the ground[00:01:44]
Trying to be the president of the land so gay[00:01:48]
He had false pretendies I had to love his style[00:01:54]
Bound to make some havoc with that violin smile[00:01:57]
Hey Salvador Dali make a walking talking something[00:02:01]
You paint some freaky pictures make a likeness of that man[00:02:07]
Muchos dollars if you can[00:02:11]
So the little man asked the politician who makes the plan[00:02:21]
Who makes the plan what happens to me[00:02:29]
And who has the key[00:02:34]
Now you are asking me who makes the scene[00:02:43]
His highness King Gold and Madam Silver his queen[00:02:47]
They keep it all arustling with the dollars and pounds[00:02:51]
And everyone knows that money makes the world go round[00:02:54]
So the little man asked King Gold and Madam Silver[00:02:58]
Come tell me what you can[00:03:04]
And King Gold said lifting his golden voice from his golden bed[00:03:07]
Now money is something it's a basic flow[00:03:20]
And me I am the archetype of jewels and dough[00:03:24]
I do a lot of talking both slow and fast[00:03:28]
But me make decisions no of course it's the past[00:03:32]
For the past is something we all have some[00:03:35]
And universal history is a bundle of fun[00:03:39]
Now I'm getting sleepy starting to nod[00:03:43]
If you want to check the picture want to check the picture[00:03:47]
Want to check it check it with God[00:03:51]
So the little man climbed up on a rickety ladder to the heavenly lands[00:03:57]
And he shed a tear 'it's all so queer and it doesn't seem clear'[00:04:05]
Now God was sitting easy in a heavenly chair[00:04:18]
Breathing deep and lazy on the heavenly air[00:04:22]
The little man got near him just to get right from wrong[00:04:26]
Said 'God are you responsible for all that goes on'[00:04:29]
God looked up from having a heavenly think[00:04:33]
He gave that little questioner a heavenly wink saying[00:04:37]
'Men have coloured me with the colours of their minds[00:04:41]
So I find[00:04:46]
They used me as an excuse for all kinds of goofs[00:04:49]
And for crimes of all kinds[00:04:53]
All your so hard facts painted thinly on the void[00:04:56]
Why were you not more pleasantly employed[00:05:04]
Anything you want to do I'm happy if you make it go right[00:05:11]
And it's true if it makes you happy you know it makes the[00:05:17]
World more bright[00:05:21]
And you shall have liberty[00:05:24]
It always was yours anyway[00:05:32]
You're one of my kind you're an infinite mind[00:05:39]
You make each new day[00:05:48]
There's nothing more I can say'[00:05:56]
