Mike Garson-eat-your-heart-out piano solo.

Nifty segue into the coda.

Uncle Remus is back.

Can two be more than threeeeeeeeeeeeeeee....

Track 3 - Part Three: Ship's a'Going Down.

Crazy Captain Gunboat W*lly...

[Verse 1: "Catbird" & "Chorus" & "Uncle Remus"]
Why not live?
The catbird shrilled!
And give a guy a chance!
For soon the moon will sing a tune and I'll be left to dance
Well, strangers have left on longer trains before
Yes, shake and shout and cause a spout to be a mockery!

Exist inside a lemon drop and cause no word to be
If after all this oleo a speck of dust exists
We'll set aside a common tide 'twixt friend and who he's kissed

[Verse 2: "Enigmatic Foe" & "Chorus"]
He thought the end was overdue, but day broke him instead
And consequently what he read was never what he said
And don't you never
Said the ever Enigmatic Foe
Lose your cool, or after school
They'll find me home in bed

[Verse 3: "Catbird"]
What hoe you rake you fake a taking and a mating moo;
Confuse to use and quick to break are simple rules to you
Why send a curly head to bed and know her secrets too?

[Verse 4: "Enigmatic Foe"]
Glue it down you dripping clown, and be not busy, too;
If a needy, if a seedy lets him come on through
Keys are not thrust open spores, and neither is a broken store!
There are clothes that haven't been worn
Feet that haven't been shorn
There's causes that haven't been given a principle
Need I say more?


[Bridge: "Uncle Remus"]
The soft spoken edge was a close fit
With the warped open cracks so many

[Chorus: "All"]
The quick brain drained the main
And the ships a goin' down me mates
The ship she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
Down down down down down
Down down down down down
The quick brain drained the main
And the ships she's a goin' down, boys
The ship she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
Down down down down down
Down down down down down
The quick brain drained the main
And the ships she's a goin' down, boys
The ship she's a goin' down
The ships she's goin' down me mates
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
Down down down down down
Down down down down down
The quick brain drained the main
And the ships she's a goin' down, boys
The ship she's a goin' down
The ships she's goin' down me mates
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
Down down down down down
Down down down down down
-ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
The ship' she's a goin' down
The quick brain drained the main
And the ships she's a goin' down, boys
The ship she's a goin' down
Down down down down down
Down down down down down

Familiar bassline.

It's the "Enigmatic Foe".

Dramatic B&W film piano bit.

Another false ending.

Considering their limited resources, the way this album is mixed and produced is a genuine miracle.

The ship's is a definitely goin' down now...

I'm only just now beginning to realise what this album is actually about.

More deft and atmospheric piano and saxamaphone interplay.

Could be a analogue for this forum.

Track 4 - Part Four: Never Known Questions.

This track includes the passage of music that many people remember.

The cloud continues
And the spot diminishes
Without even the hint
Of a glow is glowing

A continuous process
Or does the spot find its
Way out where it needs to be?
Way out where it needs to be?
Way out where it needs to be?
Way out where

[Refrain: "Chorus"]
Spot the rot, spot the rot, spot the rot we say
Spot the rot they tell the tot while feeding him some say
Spot the rot, oh spot the rot and then you'll be okay
Spot the rot, oh spot the rot but still you'd better pray
Spot the rot, oh spot the rot, spot the rot we say
Spot the rot they tell the tot while feeding him some say
Spot the rot, oh spot the rot and then you'll be okay
Spot the rot, oh spot the rot but still you'd better pray

[Verse 2: "Porcupine"]
W-when Edweena made me mushrooms
She ate the grate and ground the groom; no no no
My mother made me eat boysenberries
But my gracious sakes just ate me first
Calling cards and polling wards are just too many, see?
Oh, oh calling cards and winking bards are just a way to see
Calling cards and winking bards are just a way to be?
Falling guards and winking bards are just a need today
Falling guards and winking bards are just my needs, okay?


[Outro: "Porcupine"]
Okay? Okay? Okay? Okay? Okay? Okay? Okay?
Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay!
Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay! Okay!

Well, many of the people who've actually heard it that is.
