Supertramp - Fool's overture
History recalls
How great the fall can be
While everybody’s 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 island’s sinking, lets take to the sky
Called the man a fool, stripped him of his pride
Everyone was laughing up until the day he died
And though the wound went deep
Still he’s 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 you’ve many seeds to sow
Well I know, I know, I know
Can you hear what I’m saying
Can you see the parts that I’m 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!
