[Verse 1: Roger Waters]

The lunatic is on the grass

The lunatic is on the grass

Remembering games and daisy chains and laughs

Got to keep the loonies on the path


[Verse 2: Roger Waters]

The lunatic is in the hall

The lunatics are in my hall

The paper holds their folded faces to the floor

And every day the paperboy brings more


[Chorus: Roger Waters]

And if the dam breaks open many years too soon

And if there is no room upon the hill

And if your head explodes with dark forebodings too

I'll see you on the dark side of the moon

[Verse 3: Roger Waters & Peter Watts]

The lunatic is in my head (*laughter*)

The lunatic is in my head

You raise the blade, you make the change

You rearrange me 'till I'm sane

You lock the door and throw away the key

And there's someone in my head, but it's not me


[Chorus: Roger Waters]

And if the cloudbursts thunder in your ear

You shout and no one seems to hear (Oh, woah)

And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes (Hey, hey, hey)

I'll see you on the dark side of the moon! (Oh, oh, oh)

[Outro: Peter Watts & Patricia Watts]

I can't think of anything to say except...

*laughter*

I think it's marvellous!
