In the Wake of Poseidon Album Lyrics

Pictures Of A City
  • (Fripp/Sinfield)
  • Concrete cold face cased in steel
  • Stark sharp glass-eyed crack and peel
  • Bright light scream beam brake and squeal
  • Red white green white neon wheel.
  • Dream flesh love chase perfumed skin
  • Greased hand teeth hide tinseled sin
  • Spice ice dance chance sickly grin
  • Pasteboard time slot sweat and spin.
  • Blind stick blind drunk cannot see
  • Mouth dry tongue tied cannot speak
  • Concrete dream flesh broken shell
  • Lost soul lost trace lost in hell.

In The Wake Of Poseidon
  • (Fripp/Sinfield)
  • Plato's spawn cold ivyed eyes
  • Snare truth in bone and globe.
  • Harlequins coin pointless games
  • Sneer jokes in parrot's robe.
  • Two women weep, Dame Scarlet Screen
  • Sheds sudden theatre rain,
  • Whilst dark in dream the Midnight Queen
  • Knows every human pain.
  • In air, fire, earth and water
  • World on the scales.
  • Air, fire, earth and water
  • Balance of change
  • World on the scales
  • On the scales.
  • Bishop's kings spin judgement's blade
  • Scratch "Faith" on nameless graves.
  • Harvest hags Hoard ash and sand
  • Rack rope and chain for slaves
  • Who fireside fear fermented words
  • Then rear to spoil the feast;
  • Whilst in the aisle the mad man smiles
  • To him it matters least.
  • Heroes hands drain stones for blood
  • To whet the scaling knife.
  • Magi blind with visions light
  • Net death in dread of life.
  • Their children kneel in Jesus till
  • They learn the price of nail;
  • Whilst all around our mother earth
  • Waits balanced on the scales.

Cat Food
  • (Fripp/Sinfield/McDonald)
  • Lady Supermarket with an apple in her basket
  • Knocks in the manager's door;
  • Grooning to the muzak from a speaker in shoe rack
  • Lays out her goods on the floor;
  • Everything she's chosen is conveniently frozen.
  • "Eat it and come back for more!"
  • Lady Window Shopper with a new one in the hopper
  • Whips up a chemical brew;
  • Croaking to a neighbour while she polishes a sabre
  • Knows how to flavour a stew.
  • Never need to worry with a tin of 'Hurri Curri':
  • "Poisoned especially for you!"
  • No use to complain
  • If you're caught out in the rain;
  • Your mother's quite insane.
  • Cat food cat food cat food again.
  • Lady Yellow Stamper with a fillet in a hamper
  • Dying to finish the course;
  • Goodies for the table with a fable on the label
  • Drowning in miracle sauce.
  • Don't think I am that rude if I tell you that it's cat food,
  • "Not even fit for a horse!"
