If (Live BBC Radio Session, 16 July 1970)
If I were a swan, I'd be gone
If I were a train, I'd be late
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
If I were asleep, I could dream
If I were afraid, I could hide
If I go insane, please don't put your wires in my brain
If I were the moon, I'd be cool
If I were a rule, I would bend
If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends
If I were alone, I would cry
If I were with you, I'd be home and dry
If I go insane, will you still let me join in with the game?
If I were a swan, I'd be gone
If I were a train, I'd be late again
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
And that was another Roger Waters' composition called "If"
And next week on this program we got rather a lot of people, actually
Have Mungo Jerry, Joe and Kelly, Bob, all, Simon and Steve
And Bret Marvin and the Thunderbolts
This programme has been produced Jeff Griffin, sound balance by Chris Lycett
And leaping about this week by Bob Conduct
And now we're gonna hear the music that was the high point
Of the recent and much discussed Bath festival
And it's working title is the "Atom Heart Mother"
And it will appear under some title on the next Pink Floyd LP
Due in September or thereabouts
And Pink Floyd will be accompanied by the Philip Jones brass enemble
And the John oldest choir and the arrangements
Were written by the Floyd in conjunction with Ron Giessen
So "The Atom Heart Mother"
If I were a train, I'd be late
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
If I were asleep, I could dream
If I were afraid, I could hide
If I go insane, please don't put your wires in my brain
If I were the moon, I'd be cool
If I were a rule, I would bend
If I were a good man, I'd understand the spaces between friends
If I were alone, I would cry
If I were with you, I'd be home and dry
If I go insane, will you still let me join in with the game?
If I were a swan, I'd be gone
If I were a train, I'd be late again
If I were a good man, I'd talk with you more often than I do
And that was another Roger Waters' composition called "If"
