RADIO GNOME INVISIBLE
Words and Music
by Daevid Allen

Gnome, Gnome ...
Radio Gnome ...
Radio Gnome, Radio Gnome Invisible

Then when you're receiving
Perceiving your telepathic powers
Who knows why the wind blows through this window
Why you believe in me
We believe in you

What's that in the sky now?
Teapots that can fly now
Voices in your head
Tell me what they said

Banana, nirvana, mañana (you know)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (I know)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (we know)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (who knows)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (you know)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (I know)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (we know)
Banana, nirvana, mañana (who knows)

Everything you think shows
Hanging round your head
Underneath your long hair
Tell me what you feel there

You hear me
But I don't see you
You feel me
One day I'll be you

Radio Gnome...
Radio Gnome Invisible

Then when you're receiving
Believing your telepathic powers
Who knows why the wind blows through this window
Why you believe in me
We believe in you

What's that in the sky now?
Teapots that can fly now
Voices in your head
Tell me what they said

FLYING TEAPOT
Words by Daevid Allen, Music by Daevid Allen and Francis Moze

If you feel belief hi Pete
I got a story to tell you
Of a band of little green men
From a far away planet
If you want to know about love
Then ask the wee geezer
He can teach you telepathy
He can read your mind backwards
If you try to do the cat in
You can only be a loser
Paranoia never touch him
He's got ways of laughter
Baby don't you bring yourself down
Got to catch you up later
If you want to know about love
You can ask the wee geezer
He can teach you telepathy
He can read your mind backwards
If you try to do the cat in
You can only be a loser
Paranoia never touch him
He's got ways of laughter
Baby don't you bring yourself down
I'll catch you up later
Give him a bit of your love you get it back later...
Give him a bit of your love you get it back later (repeat)

...Hear me now from the Invisible Opera Company of Tibet...

Have a cup of tea, have another one, have a cup of tea
Have a cup of tea, have another one, have a cup of tea
Have a cup of tea, have another one, have a cup of tea...

High in the sky, what do you see?
Come down to Earth, a cup of tea
Flying saucer, flying teacup
From outer space, Flying Teapot (repeat)

Good afternoon

ZERO THE HERO AND THE WITCH'S SPELL
Words by Daevid Allen, Music by Christian Tritsch and Daevid Allen

I love you mister Pixie
I love you
All I want to do is to be you...

I love your face
I love your space
I love your rays baby
And if you like
I'll stay tonight

I could swear that I saw it up in the sky
On the eve but I never knew they could fly
It was green as an emerald in the blue
Now I'm wondering if it was really you

WITCH'S SONG/I AM YOUR PUSSY
Words by Gilli Smyth, Music by Daevid Allen

I am your pussy
You are my tramp
Don't want to fuck you
Just hear you run
Miawl... miawl... miawl...
You can be a cat too

Not often lonely
As you see
I'm a cat with a flat cap
Be careful or I might scratch you
Or turn into a witch
And fly away on my broomstick

I only want to know you
I only want to lick you
I only want to feed you
Every bit of fish and chips that I can find to feed you
Give it to you

I am your pussy
You are my tramp
Don't want to fuck you
Just hear you run
Miawl... miawl... miawl...
You can be a cat too

Shadow tied to a tree
Sometimes I slide away
To be free
Cover you with a warm dark mothering
Fill you with animal love
Carry you away into the sky

Cos I love you love you love you
Even though you make me freeze
And you say I'm only just a dog
Who can't control his fleas
And I love you love you love you
On the roofs and on the floor
And I really can't believe
That we have never met before

I only want to know you
I only want to lick you
I only want to feed you
Every bit of fish and chips that I can find to feed you
Give it to you
