  • Swan Lee got up at the Running Foot pow-wow,
    heading from the fire to his waiting canoe.
    Chattering Squaw untied the wigwam door,
    the chief blew smoke rings two by two!
    The land in silence stands...
    Swan Lee, his boat by the bank in the darkness,
    loosened the rope in the creek is entwined.
    A feather from the wing of a wild young eagle,
    pointed to the land where his fortune he'd find
    The land in silence stands
    Swan Lee paddled on from the land of his fathers,
    his eyes scanned the undergrowth on either side.
    From the shore hung a hot, heavy, creature infested
    tropic, Swan Lee had a bow by his side
    The land in silence stands
    Swan Lee kept time, half on land, half on water,
    Grizzly bear and raccoon his fare.
    He followed his ears to the great water fall,
    Swan Lee knew deep down that his squaw was there!
    The land in silence stands....
    Suddenly the rush of the mighty great thunder,
    confronted Swan Lee as his song he sang,
    In the dawn, with his squaw, he was battling homewards
    It was all written down by Long Silas Lang.
    The land in silence stands...
    The land in silence stands...
    The land in silence stands.

    What a musical genius! He didn't like school, he was nobody's fool and no record company was could ever dictate their terms to him. The ultimate rock star... Syd Barrett!

    One of my favorite songs by him. It’s a shame it wasn’t included on Madcap or Barrett.

    I don't understand why Producer Peter Jenner didn't list who the musicians are that are backing up Barrett!
    It was rumored that Steve Peregrine Took plays Congas on these '68 sessions.

    All convincing but I suggest that it should be "the creepers entwined" - makes more sense than "the creek is entwined". I wonder if Long Silas Lang ever got round to writing any more stories!

      tonickton 45 and love him. Have since I first heard Piper when I was 12. I was walking through the shipping precinct above Hammersmith tube station when I saw a newspaper headline announcing his passing.
      I burst into tears! Really bad, bawling my eyes out, loads of people staring at me.
      Very odd.
