lyrics
It's a big wheel, on a small track
Building momentum every day
And we see the end, just around the bend
It's the way that the world is going, or at least that's what they say
So the big boys make a big noise
As they laugh at integrity's demise
But there's a sound, deep underground
Salvation and creation on the rise
Stop the press, oh what a mess
It's the same one that we heard last week
So pass it on, let's move along
There's a better brighter path that we seek
Can you hear the worm in your ear?
It's telling you there's nothing to be done
But the world yearned, and the worm has turned
And now there's so much better still to come
So count your blessings now, and hope that some how
They'll remember your brief little span
Sing your perfect song, cos it won't be too long
Make the best of it while you can
Inconsequential conscious stream of concentrated ooze
Infiltrates, asphyxiates and drowns out all your blues
Drop the sword, drop the pen, they're no use to you here
Listen up and drink your cup as we drone in to your ear
Don't think, don't learn, just tow the new hookline
No need to fret, you'll soon forget you ever had a mind
Now can you hear, the worm in your ear
Telling you there's nothing to be done
But the world yearned, and the worm has turned
And now there's so much better still to come
Yeah!
So count your blessings now, and hope that some how
They'll remember your brief little span
Sing your perfect song, cos it won't be too long
Make the best of it while you can
Remember melody, and sweet harmony
And rhythm so strong and true
I guess it ain't that bad, but it's pretty sad
When just one out of three will do

Absolutely hooked on this album from first listen. How rare is that with prog!??? Excellent songwriting and musicianship. Can’t wait to dive into the rest of the collection. Thomas Lock
