No Good Trying - Syd 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
