The Beginning / Beset by Creatures of the Deep Lyrics

Early version of
'Green is the Colour'
which segues into
'Careful With That Axe, Eugene'
Circa 1969
Heavy hung the canopy of blue
Shade my eyes and I can see you
White was the light
That shines through the dress that you wore

She lay in the shadow of the wave
Hazy were the visions of her playing
Sunshine in her eyes
But moonshine made her blind everytime
Green is the colour of her kind
Quickness of the eye deceives the mind
Envy is the bond
Between the hopeful and the d***ed
