peter hammill - faculty x [the peel sessions] lyrics
[intro]
hope by and by, hope by and by –
motes in the eye, portcullis is shut…
a skull isn’t much
of a c+c+castle to live in
the change has got to come
the change has got to come
[pre+chorus]
explosions in the brain attest to it
evolution down the drain – let all the rest do it
[chorus]
oh, yeah, the only result
is cumulative drek
it won’t be the drug
it won’t be the s+x
it’s the faculty x
[verse 1]
looking for a method, i play a straight bat
throw away the chances to slip
yeah, you talk about the average –
i don’t care about that
and my words are only giving me lip
[pre+chorus]
still i know that the changе has got to come
the change has got to comе
the change has got to come
the change has got to come
(the change has got to come) or what am i living for?
(the change has got to come) or why am i here?
(the change has got to come) i’m running, i give in more
(the change has got to come) far away from the near
[chorus]
go meta+physical world
the sign that protects
it wasn’t the last
it won’t be the next
it’s faculty x
[verse 2]
reading seers, sages, prophets, obscurantist tracts
draining the elixir to the dregs;
active yeast in the bottom is on the attack
and it leaves me without any legs to stand on
[bridge]
still i hope that the change will come
[chorus]
meanwhile i don’t know
i think i’ll have to go
yeah, go for the governing body
that consciousness elects
but it won’t be so clear
and it won’t be direct
it’s all that i fear
it’s all i suspect
and i’ll disappear in faculty x
[verse 3]
i pluck all these characters out of thin air
i push them down into the lungs;
i infuse them with meaning as much as i dare
[outro]
stretch out for the shoreline and wait for the wave….
