Image Blown Out (Rough Mix 1968) Songtext / Lyric

People moving about the town upside down, you know why

Little bits of coloured glass in the sky

Children pushing mummy down to the park in a pram

Look out – the pavement's changing to jam



See them running

Now where are they going to

To follow them, leads you nowhere

Shout to them quickly but no one can hear you

All they can do is to stare






Your bowler hats are turning green

Your city suits are coloured cream

You, you changed my life

You made it misery, sadness reins alone

Wonder why you do this to me

When I've tried so hard for you



People talking to the man who's digging a hole in his mind

He's no need to worry, he's deaf and blind

See the dustman doing his round in a Rolls made of glass

He's gained everything because he's got class



Friends are leaving me when I did everything

Just as they used to behave

Trying to copy them, losing my real self

Floating away in a cloud



Your bowler hats are turning green

Your city suits are coloured cream

You, you changed my life

You made it misery, sadness reins alone

Wonder why you do this to me

When I've tried so hard for you
