~LUCIFER SAM~

Main riff:

F♯Lucifer Sam, Siam cGat,

ABlways sitting by your side

BAlways bEy your side,

TChat cat's something i Gcan't expDlain

Jennifer Gentle you're a witch,

You're the left side

He's the right side oh, no,

That cat's something i can't explain

Lucifer go to sea,

Be a hip cat, be a ship's cat

Somehwere, anywhere,

That cat's something i can't explain

(Keyboard solo:

Best sound if used with 1960's organ:

Cello, with repeat on)

At night prowling sifting sand,

Padding around on the ground

He'll be found when you're around,

That cat's something i can't explain

~MATILDA MOTHER~

Why'd you have to leave me there,

Hanging in my infant air waiting?

You only have to read the lines of scribbly black,

And everything shines

(Use verse chord changes)

AcBross the strAeam with wooGden shF♯oes,

BeBlls to teAll the kiGng the neF♯ws

HigBher onAce upGon a tF♯ime

WoGnderinDg and dreAaming,

The woGrds had difDferent meaEning,

(Repeat turn-around riff)

(Normal verse chords)

For all the time spent in that room,

The dolls house dakrness, old perfume

And fairy stories held me high,

On clouds of sunlight floating by

Oh, oh mother tell me more,

Tell me more

E for outro

~FLAMING~

AlEone in the clouds all blDue,

LyiBmng on an eiAderdown, yiEppee

You can't see mAe but DI caFn yEou

Lazing in the foggy dew,

Sitting on a unicorn, no fear

You can't hear me but I can you

Watching buttercups cup the light,

Sleeping on a dandelion, too much

I won't touch you but then I might

Streaming through the starlit skies,

Traveling by telephone

Hey ho here we go,

Ever so high

Alone in the clouds all blue,

Lying on an eiderdown, yippee

You can't see me but I can you

~POW R. TOC H.~

Instrumental

This is a funny song probably the result of too much acid and too much helium. Haha. It

a good song though

~TAKE UP THY STETHOSCOPE & WALK~

A

E

Doctor, doctor I'm in bed,

Doctor, doctor, aching head

Doctor, doctor, gold is lead,

Doctor, doctor, choke on bread

Doctor, doctor, underfed,

Doctor, doctor, gold is lead

Doctor, doctor, Jesus bled,

Doctor, doctor, pain is red

Doctor, doctor, dark doom,

Gruel ghoul, greasy spoon

Used spoon, June gloom

Use riff for bridge:

G

Music seems to help the pain,

Seems to motivate the brain,

Doctor kindly tell your wife

(Go back to riff for verse)

That I'm alive,

Flowers thrive

Realise,

Realise,

Realise

~CHAPTER 24~

(There is no guitar in this song, but there is a bass and unfortanetly I haven't been

to figure it out)

All movement is accomplished in six stages,

And the seventh brings return

The seven is the number of the your light,

It forms when darkness is increased by one

Change; return success,

Going and coming without error

Action brings good fortuene,

Sunset

The time is with the month of winter solstice,

When the change is due to come

Thunder in the Earth, the course of Heaven,

Things cannott be destroyed once and for all

Change; return success,

Going and coming without error

Action brings good fortune,

Sunset...

Sunrise...

All movement is accomplished in six stages,

~SCARECROW~

TDhe black and greAen scarecrow, Cas ev'ryoAne kGnows,

Stood with aA bird on his hat andD straw ev'rAywhere.

HeD didn't care.

HeG stood in aAm field whereG barleyA grows.

HisD head did noA thinking, hisC arms didn'tA moGve,

Except when theA wind cut up rough andD mice ran Aaround on theD ground.

HeG stood in aAm field whereG barleyA grows.

TheD black and greenA scarecrow isC sadder thanA meG__.

But now he's rAesigned to his fate's, 'causeD life's not uAnkind.

HeD doesn't mind.

HeG stood in aAm field whereG barleyA grows.

~BIKE~

I'Gve got a bike, you can riCde it if you like,

ICt's got a basket, a bell that rings

And things to make it loGok good,

I'd giDve it to you if i could but i borrowed iGt

DYou're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,

DI'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I've got a cloak it's a bit of a joke,

There's a tear up the front it's red and black

I've had it for months,

If you think it could look good then i guess it should

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,

I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I know a mouse and he hasn't got a house,

I don't know why I call him Gerald

He's getting rather old but he's a good mouse

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,

I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I've got a clan of gingerbread men,

Here a man, there a man, lots of gingerbread men

Take a couple if you wish they're on the dish

You're the kind of girl that fits in with my world,

I'll give you anything, everything, if you weant things

I know a room of musical tunes,

Some rhyme some ching most of them are clock work

let's go into the other room and make them work
