I didn't know if this had been posted before (I searched for it but couldn't find anything). I think this song has to do with PID/PWR, and the lyrics remind me of that St. Paul song by Terry Knight. Anyways, here are the lyrics and song: youtube.com/watch?v=Nob9k558LVcHistory recalls how great the fall can be While everybodys sleeping, the boats put out to sea Borne on the wings of time It seemed the answers were so easy to find Too late, the prophets cry The islands sinking, lets take to the sky
Called the man a fool, striped him of his pride Everyone was laughing up until the day he died And though the wound went deep Still hes calling us out of our sleep My friends, were not alone He waits in silence to lead us all home
So tell me that you find it hard to grow Well I know, I know, I know And you tell me that youve many seeds to sow Well I know, I know, I know
Can you hear what Im saying Can you see the parts that Im playing Holy man, rocker man, come on queenie, Joker man, spider man, blue eyed meanie So you found your solution What will be your last contribution? Live it up, rip it up, why so lazy? Give it out, dish it out, lets go crazy, Yeah!Also, according to Wiki, Sir. Paul claims Supertramp to be one of his favorite bands.

I always loved that song (and many others by Supertramp for that matter) and I always thought this song was about Jesus...

I just connected the "fool" imagery with JPM because of the Fool on the Hill (which is also supposedly about Jesus).

that makes sense... gotta play that song again soon! by the way... Roger Hodgson kinda looks like what we believe to be 'the look of the Christ'... good thing he lost the beard in recent years
