Lyrics for Song: Point Me At The Sky
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Pink Floyd
Hey, Jean
This is Henry McClean
And I've finished my beautiful flying machine
And I'm ringing to say
That I'm leaving and maybe
You'd like to fly with me
And hide with me, baby
Isn't it strange
How little we change
Isn't it sad we're insane
Playing the games that we know end in tears
The games we've been playing
For thousands and thousands and thousands
Pointing to this cosmic glider
"Pull this plastic glider higher
And light the fuse and stand well back"
He cried, "This is my last good-bye."
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly
And if you survive till two thousand and five
I hope you're exceedingly thin
For if you are stout you will have to breathe out
While the people around you breathe in
Breathe in, breathe in, breathe in
People pressing on my sides is
Something that I hate and so is
Sitting down to eat with only
Little capsules on my plate
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Point me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly
(Poin me at the sky and let it fly)
Point me at the sky and let it fly
And all we've got to say to you is good-bye
It's time to go, better run and get your bags, it's good-bye
Nobody cry, it's good-bye
Crash, crash, crash, crash, good-bye...

Point Me At The Sky
Released in 1979, 'Point Me At The Sky' stands as a pivotal track from Pink Floyd's conceptual masterpiece, The Wall. Serving as the film's opening sequence, the song establishes the protagonist's descent into isolation through a haunting blend of orchestral arrangements and Roger Waters' distinctive vocal delivery. The recording captures the era's progressive rock evolution, utilizing layered synthesizers and dramatic percussion to mirror the narrative of a crumbling psyche. As a standalone piece, it remains a defining example of the band's ability to weave cinematic storytelling into their music, influencing countless artists who followed in the realm of concept albums and theatrical rock productions. |
