No Good Trying

Syd's very good song...

No Good Trying

(Barrett)

It's no good trying to place your hand

Where I can't see

Because I understand
That you're different from me
Yes I can tell

That you can't be what you pretend
And you're rocking me backwards
And you're rocking towards

The Red and yellow mane of a stallion horse.

It's no good trying to hold your love

Where I can't see

Because I understand
That you're different from me
Yes I can tell

That you can't be what you pretend
The caterpillar hood

won't cover the head of you
Know you should be home in bed.
It's no good holding your sequin fan
Where I can't see

Because I understand
That you're different from me

Yes I can tell
That you can't be what you pretend
Yes you're spinning around and around in a car
With electric lights flashing very fast...

Syd Barrett/Madcap Laughs/No Good Trying-1970
