Colonel Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigad

Colonel Les Claypool's Fearless Flying Frog Brigad - Shine On You Crazy Diamond (Jack Irons Version) lyrics

Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun

Shine on you crazy diamond

Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky

Shine on you crazy diamond

You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom

blown on the steel breeze

Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger

you legend, you martyr, and shine!

You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon

Shine on you crazy diamond

Threatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light

Shine on you crazy diamond

Well you wore out your welcome with random precision

rode on the steel breeze

Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter

you piper, you prisoner, and shine!

Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far

Shine on you crazy diamond

Pile on many more layers and I'll be joining you there

Shine on you crazy diamond

And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,

and sail on the steel breeze

Come on you boy child, you winner and looser

Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!
