One Of My Turns Lyrics

"Oh my God! What a fabulous room! Are all these your guitars?
"I'm sorry sir, I didn't mean to startle you!"
"This place is bigger than our apartment!"
"Let me know when you're entering a room"
"Yes sir!"
"Um, Can I get a drink of water?"
"I was wondering about..."
"You want some, huh?"
"Yes"
"Oh wow, look at this tub? Do you want to take bath?"
"I'll have to find out from Mrs. Bancroft what time she wants to meet us, for her main..."
"What are watching?"
"If you'll just let me know as soon as you can ... Mrs Bancroft" "Mrs Bancroft..."
"Hello?"
"I don't understand..."
"Are you feeling okay?..."

Day after day, love turns grey
Like the skin of a dying man.
And night after night, we pretend its all right
But I have grown older and
You have grown colder and
Nothing is very much fun any more.
And I can feel One Of My Turns coming on.
I feel cold as a razor blade,
Tight as a tourniquet,
Dry as a funeral drum.

Run to the bedroom,
In the suitcase on the left
You'll find my favorite axe.
Don't look so frightened
This is just a passing phase,
One of my bad days.
Would you like to watch T.V.?
Or get between the sheets?
Or contemplate the silent freeway?
Would you like something to eat?
Would you like to learn to fly?
Would'ya?
Would you like to see me try?

Would you like to call the cops?
Do you think it's time I stopped?
Why are you running away?

One Of My Turns

This was inspired by Roy Harper, a friend of the band and lead singer on Pink Floyd's "Have A Cigar." The specific inspiration was an incident where Harper trashed his caravan at the 1975 Knebworth festival. (thanks, Jim - Birmingham, England)

The Wall's producer Bob Ezrin thought of the album as a theatrical experience, and he cites this song as an example of that vision. He told Rolling Stone: "My vision for it was informed by the LP of the 1966 film A Man For All Seasons - all the dialogue, music and sound effects. I used to put it on and close my eyes - it was an eyelid movie."
