๐ Lyrics
If I were a swan, I'd be gone
If I were a train, I'd be late
And if I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
If I were asleep, I could dream
If I were afraid, I could hide
If I go insane, please don't put your wires in my brain
If I were the moon, I'd be cool
If I were a rule, I would bend
If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends
If I were alone, I would cry
And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry
If I go insane, will you still let me join in with the game?
If I were a swan, I'd be gone
If I were a train, I'd be late again
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
And that was another Roger Waters composition
Called "If"
And next week on this program
We've got rather a lot of people actually
We have Mungo Jerry, Jo Ann Kelly with Bob Hall
Simon And Steve, and Brett Marvin and the Thunderbolts
And this program has been produced by Jeff Griffin
Sound balanced by Chris Lycett
And leaping about this week by Bob Conduct
And now we're going to hear the music
That was the high point of the recent and much-discussed Bath Festival
And it's working title is "The Atom Heart Mother"
And it will appear under some title on the next Pink Floyd LP
Due in September or thereabouts
And Pink Floyd will be accompanied by the Philip Jones Brass Ensemble
And the John Alldis Choir
And the arrangements are written by the Floyd
In conjunction with Ron Geesin
So, "The Atom Heart Mother"
If I were a train, I'd be late
And if I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
If I were asleep, I could dream
If I were afraid, I could hide
If I go insane, please don't put your wires in my brain
If I were the moon, I'd be cool
If I were a rule, I would bend
If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends
If I were alone, I would cry
And if I were with you, I'd be home and dry
If I go insane, will you still let me join in with the game?
If I were a swan, I'd be gone
If I were a train, I'd be late again
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
And that was another Roger Waters composition
Called "If"
And next week on this program
We've got rather a lot of people actually
We have Mungo Jerry, Jo Ann Kelly with Bob Hall
