The Tangent - Codpieces & Capes | Текст песни

Part I: We've Got The Music!

In the days when music came "quickly from afar"
We heard your songs in wonder, (still wonder who you are)
You were our teen years of which we can't let go
You were our soul's dream - to make that path our own.

The trail it leads us forward through every day of our lives,
Moments of despondency, money fears and strife,
And though it seems like nothing will ever sort us out,
It's alright! (We've Got the Music!)

I want to form new theories, not harbour old beliefs,
As if some vinyl gatefold were the only truth I seek,
But if I take the easy road by sticking to the script,
It's alright! (We've Got the Music!)

When the things that we do get of control,
When the stuff we churn out just plugs in the holes in our lives
It's time to turn round, time to find a way
And if Neal can find God, then what's in it for me?
Could I take that same road? Would the truth set me free?
We've Got the Music!

Part II: Geronimo - The Sharp End Of A Legacy

Always in the darkness but always on the move
I stand in your great shadow with nothing left to prove
I wait for your attentions like a hapless little boy
Who just wants to be like you, who just wants to enjoy
Your respect, ah, nothing less!

So did I really waste it, the life I could have led?
As a lawyer of a preacher I could have tasted your success
Not lost with noisy rock bands on a fire escape in Leeds
Struggling with the Hammond and playing 'til my fingers bleed
To an empty room? "Ah, it's all change soon! - 'll show em!"

How can your legacy be not written by the ones who follow you?
Who follow you to the end of the world?

Part III: Trucks And Rugs And Prog And Roll

In the days when music came "quickly from afar"
We heard your songs in wonder, (still wonder who you are)

Codpieces and capes, and all the hotel japes,
Your name emblazoned on the tops of your three trucks
And you're got roadies for you drugs and person rugs
But on my French book, I'll still draw your logo late at night
To me you're still thin, wearing flares, your hair in graceful flight
In the mirror they're old...

In the mirror they're old...but not in the gatefold.

Part IV: A Night at Newcastle City Hall in 1971

We're gonna give you "Pictures At An Exhibition"!

And I was there!
(Well... I was at school... but I WAS THERE!)
And every note they played that night seemed like magic in the air
Stuff coming together, stuff that belonged,
The critics said "pretentious", oh my God, they were SO wrong!
(They are probably right about the RUG)

Part V: We've Got The Music! (Reprise)

The trail it leads us forward through every day of our lives,
Moments of despondency, money fears and strife,
And though it seems like nothing will ever sort us out,
It's alright! (We've Got the Music!)

When the things that we do get of control,
When the stuff we churn out just plugs in the holes in our lives
It's time to turn round, time to find a way
And if Neal can find God, then what's in it for me?
Could I take that same road? Would the truth set me free?
We've Got the Music!
