Well, I`m happy that someone is enjoying that song,
Dayvan.
I`ve never heard of Toby Driver, but that is a wonderful album title !
Here`s a clip that I enjoy watching, although the lyrics aren`t exactly great poetry. ( Don`t miss the guy`s little puppet walk at 00:57) :
Newbeats - Bread And Butter (Very nice quality) [HD video] - YouTube

Syd`s lyrics are often a bit weak and inexplicable, it`s true, but then sometimes he comes up with images or lines like nobody else. I put him in my list of inspired lyricists for lines like these :
Quote:
And you`re rocking me backwards and you`re rocking towards
The red and yellow mane of a stallion horse.
-
Lime and limpid green, a second scene, the fight between the blue you once knew
Floating down, the sound resounds around the icy waters underground.
-
You and I in place, wasting time on dominoes.
A day so dark, so warm; life that comes to no harm.
You and I and dominoes - time goes by.
