Arnold Layne
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Arnold layne had a strange puppet
He ran around, bike ride upside-down
Arnold layne had a strange hobby
Collecting clothes, moonshine, washing line
They suit him fine
On the wall hung a tall mirror
Distorted view, see-thru baby blue
He dug it
Oh, arnold layne it's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know, two to know
Why can't you see ?
Arnold layne...arnold layne
Now he's caught a nasty sort of person
They gave him time, doors slam chain gang
He hated
Oh, arnold layne it's not the same
Takes two to know
Two to know, two to know
Why can't you see ?
Arnold layne...arnold layne
Arnold layne don't do it again
