Arnold Layne had a strange hobby
Collecting clothes 
Moonshine washing line
They suit him fine 

On the wall hung a tall mirror 
Distorted view, see through baby blue
He dug it
Oh, Arnold Layne 
It's not the same, takes two to know 
Two to know, two to know, two to know
Why can't you see?

Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne, Arnold Layne 

Now he's caught - a nasty sort of person.
They gave him time 
Doors bang - chain gang - he hates it 

Oh, Arnold Layne 
It's not the same, takes two to know
two to know, two to know, two to know, 
Why can't you see?
