I've forgotten the lyrics to "21st Century Schzoid Man"

[bobthedrummer]

:dunce:
:smoke:
What is the first verse???????????????

[redwitch]

1. here ya go:

cat's foot, iron claw
neurosurgeons scream for more
at paranoia's poison door
twenty first century schzoid man

[xray s]

2. yeah

Cat's foot iron claw
Neuro-surgeons scream for more
At paranoia's poison door.
Twenty first century schizoid man.

Blood rack barbed wire
Polititians' funeral pyre
Innocents raped with napalm fire
Twenty first century schizoid man.

Death seed blind man's greed
Poets' starving children bleed
Nothing he's got he really needs
Twenty first century schizoid man.

9. uh...I'm sittin' here lookin' at the CD...it's 1979......

[sendero]

11. Dudeness...

... that is not the CD in question :) We're talkin' 'bout In the Court of the Crimson King, the debut 1969 release of King Crimson.

I don't think April Wine is, uh, well, germane :)

4. i just went to pull out the album

and realized it was packed away in a box. great album. (in the court of the krimson king, i think.)

sorry.

but that sure was an intense album cover!

i miss album covers. these little cd covers are crap.

that's another thread altogether.

edit for grammar

[jus_the_facts]

5. sure ya weren't thinkin' of the song...'Sign of the Gypsy Queen' off.....

...the album 'Nature of the Beast'? Don't recall any 'court of the krimson king' referrence regardin' this band!! :shrug: :D

[Sufi Marmot]

14. April Wine covered the original by King Crimson...

Harder...Faster

-SM, who rather likes April Wine's cover of Hot Chocolate's "You Could Have Been a Lady", although not as much as the original.

6. A truly amazing track...

... from a band that was once truly amazing :) One of my favorite albums of all time fer sure.

[Beware the Beast Man]

10. "I can't explain it,

the way you look sometimes,
like a trampled flag on a city street,
oh yeah."

Oh, sorry, that was "21st Century Digital Boy." :hi:
