about

A psych rock track based on some old lyrics by Syd Barrett, or actually by the English poet Sir Henry Newbolt. Long story short: In 1968 Syd took some lyrics from an old nursery rhyme called "Rilloby-Rill" for his song "Octopus". Now Friendly Antenna has made a song about it. Fun for the whole family! A tribute to Syd, psychedelic London and the UFO club. It's all in the song.

lyrics

Hey ho, trip and go
Get your kicks down the UFO
Nick a phrase from Rilloby-Rill
The old original favored a brand
Grasshopper grim Hibernian band
Nick a phrase O Willowy-Will

Obscured by time
Forgotten lore
I study the words in tales of yore
And one sudden memory sprang
From a song Syd sang

Hey ho, trip and go
Get your kicks down the UFO
Nick a phrase from Rilloby-Rill
The old original favored a brand
Grasshopper grim Hibernian band
Nick a phrase O Willowy-Will

I close down my books
And grab my pen
And write down these words once again
To a song of dreams and bliss
Sounds like this

Hey ho, trip and go
Get your kicks down the UFO
Nick a phrase from Rilloby-Rill
The old original favored a brand
Grasshopper grim Hibernian band
Nick a phrase O Willowy-Will

Hey ho, trip and go
Get your kicks down the UFO
Hey ho, trip and go
Get your kicks down the UFO
Hey ho, trip and go
Get your kicks down the UFO
