Syd Barrett - Birdie Hop lyrics

Birdie hop, he do he hop along
A lonely bird upon a window there, he, he
There he blow a windy snow, he knew the snow
I know the snow, a hoppy bird

The antelope ride around the parasol
Just to see if he's a man enough
To meet you in the sandpit
On a flying kind of sighing
In a meddlesome bay you know the way
I see the flies she's a little kite
The sort you think you might
Like to fly 'er and like a kite
You get to see her every night
You know the way

She's only paving her way hectachrome plane
I see the flies

Birdie hop, he do, he hop along
A lonely bird upon a window there, he, he
There he blow, the windy snow
He know the snow, a hoppy bird

A camel woke up to a Polish dawn
Wouldn't look to see his feet had gone
He wouldn't like it
Wouldn't have the strength to fight it
I see the flies

I'm the only bird, a little third
I lost a quarter, had a yearning
To be earning just a dollar a day
And in a way you shouldn't like it
Hectachrome plane i see the flies
