1969 and well ahead of Time.
Just going through the King Crimson collection at the moment. There are some remarkable Lyrics to be heard. 21st Century Schizoid man bites like ragged shark's teeth in bare raw flesh, but the words of Epitaph are so in step with the times it is as if a great bell peels from the tower on the hill.
The wall on which the prophets wrote
is cracking at the seams ....
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
As silence drowns the screams ....[it just sends chills up my spine].
The words of Court of The Crimson King are nothing less than inspired
The Keeper of the City Keys
Put shutters on the dreams
I wait outside the pilgrim's door
With Insufficient schemes ...
Anyone else with Lyrics that have taken you unawares?
