Artist/Band: Pink Floyd
Lyrics for Song: Astronomy Domine
Lyrics for Album: Ummagumma [1969]



Lime and limpid green

A second scene

A fight between the blue you once knew



Floating down the sound resounds

Around the icy waters underground



Jupiter and Saturn, Oberon, Miranda

And Titania, Neptune, Titan

Stars can frighten



Blinding signs flat flicker, flicker, flicker

Blam pow, pow

Stairway scare Dan Dare who's there



Lime and limpid green

The sound surrounds the icy waters underground

Lime and limpid green

The sound surrounds the icy waters underground


Astronomy Domine

Astronomy Domine stands as a defining early work in Pink Floyd's expansive discography, showcasing the band's pioneering approach to psychedelic rock. Featured on the 1969 double album Ummagumma, the track captures the group's experimental spirit through its distinctive organ textures and Syd Barrett's evocative vocal delivery. The composition reflects the band's growing mastery of atmospheric soundscapes, utilizing heavy reverb and dynamic shifts to create an immersive listening experience. As a cornerstone of their early catalogue, the song highlights the transition from their initial garage rock roots toward the complex, conceptual structures that would later define their most celebrated albums. Its enduring presence in live performances underscores its significance within the broader context of British progressive rock history.
