Biography:
Robert Wyatt, born Robert Ellidge, in Bristol, UK on 28 January 1945, is an English musician, and a former member of the influential Canterbury scene band Soft Machine.
As a teenager, he lived with his parents in a fourteen-room Georgian guest-house, Wellington House, in Lydden near Canterbury. Here he was taught the drums by visiting American jazz drummer George Niedorf.
In 1962, Wyatt and Niedorf moved to Majorca where they stayed with the poet Robert Graves.

You look different every time

You come from the foam-crested brine
F#m F Am Em
It's your skin shining softly in the moonlight
F#m F Am Em
Partly fish, partly porpoise, partly baby sperm whale
F#m F Am Em
Am I yours? Are you mine to play with?
F#m F
Joking apart

When you're drunk you're terrific

When you're drunk I like you mostly

Late at night, you're quite alright

You're a seasonal beast
F#m F Am Em
Like the starfish that drift in with the tide, with the tide
F#m F Am Em
So until your blood runs to meet the next full moon
F#m F Am Em
Your madness fits in nicely with my own, with my own

Your lunacy fits neatly with my own

My very own
