WARNING this sappy and not very good. But it was an English project….

I love you Pink Floyd

Your music makes me overjoyed.

Whether Eugene has his axe,

Or Seamus is running around in a pack.

If it’s high time for Cymbaline,

Or if ten years have got behind.

Your music has changed me

Even amazed me.

 

Syd Barrett, the most darling one

Who knew how fast he would be done?

His music was funky

His lyrics were spunky

Even when there was no other way,

He’d try it another day

 

The alpha male is Roger Waters

Tormented with the loss of his father.

Bullying his fans

And spitting on their hands.

Whether he’s building The Wall 

Or writing concept albums about all

 

Richard Wright was the sweetest man

I will forever be his fan.

He knew the difference between us and them

Because, after all, we’re all just ordinary men.

Roger bullied him, but that’s okay

He sailed on to a holiday.

 

Nick Mason built the band

Architecture school gave him a helping hand.

An amazing drummer yes

But cars are the passion he loves best

He’ll keep playing his fictitious sports,

And creating crazy music of all sorts.

 

David Gilmour….

Need I say more?

You have the greasiest hair

And the albatross hanging motionless upon the air

The most beautiful man and musician ever

Perfect looks and perfect forever.

                                 

I love you, Pink Floyd

And that won’t be destroyed

Syd Barrett’s childish songs

Until the acid made him not belong

The awkward phase before Dark Side of the Moon

That was over all too soon

The five concept albums of Waters

All seeming to involve his dead father

Momentary Lapse and Division Bell

Are all so pretty they are like a magic spell

Although members have passed and times have changed

Their incredible music will remain.
