Emerson, Lake & Palmer

Bass - playing in my face - grabbin the elastic
Drums - listen here she comes - hammerin the plastic
Keys - I play em all with ease - Freeze! Your shakin at the knees
Youre doin somethin drastic - chasin the fantastic...
To dine with tigers in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?
Man - living in a can - skippin with a suit-case
Frail - living in a gale - slipping on a blue face
Claws - are scratching at the doors - Pause: If you dont lose your oars
Youre trippin on a shoe lace - racin to each new place...
To screw your shadow in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?
Sun - help me when I run - bleedin from the moonlight
Nurse - help me with a verse - I need to sing the tune right
Days - I wasted in the maze - Raise your eyes above the ways
To keep a silver spoon bright - fly up to balloon height...
To ride the spotlight in the sky
But did you ever stop to wonder why?
