Movie and Live Versions
On both the film adaptation and the recording of the live performance of this album, the song segues into "What Shall We Do Now?".
Visually, both the movie and live versions feature an animated "fornicating flowers" sequence by Gerald Scarfe, in which one predatory female flower appears to seduce a more shy male flower into sex. The two then briefly morph into a vaguely foetus-like figure before the predatory flower devours the male and flies into the distance of what becomes the animation for "What Shall We Do Now?"

My heart would brim with dreams about the times
When we bent down above the fading coals
And talked of the dark folk who live in souls
Of passionate men, like bats in the dead trees....”
