Syd's Eyes

I'm looking into Syd's eyes
To see what I can see
I see a man with the shape of a bird on his shoulders
Wait for the world
A man with a plate of pork chops on his shoulders

Can't you see half a world away?
Can't you see the whole world is away?

Syd's eyes - rare jewels from the east
A mosaic tapestry on which we'll feast
The crow lands on the scarecrow's head
The scarecrow's head is shorn
The crow is better off dead

Can't you see half a world away?
Can't you see the whole world is away?

In my mind
And I'm floating on and on
Down the river

Syd's Eyes it's a place you can go
What's really been there nobody knows
A carnival ride on a ferris wheel
Or a journey to hell that's going on still

Can't you see half a world away?
Can't you see the whole world is away?
