How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Genius Annotation

Track #3 on Pink Floyd’s 1970 album Atom Heart Mother. This song was written, composed and sung by Richard Wright. This song could be about dwelling on one-night-stands with girls he met touring with the band.

This is the only other song from Atom Heart Mother to feature the brass section that was used on the titular suite.
