Procol Harum - Shine On Brightly Lyrics
(brooker / reid)My prussian-blue electric clocksAlarm bell rings, it will not stopAnd I can see no end in sightAnd search in vain by candlelightFor some long road that goes nowhereFor some signpost that is not thereAnd even my befuddled brainIs shining brightly, quite insaneThe chandelier is in full swingAs gifts for me the three kings bringOf myrrh and frankincense, Im told,And fat old buddhas carved in goldAnd though it seems they smile with gleeI know in truth they envy meAnd watch as my befuddled brainShines on brightly quite insaneAbove all else confusion reignsAnd though I ask no-one explainsMy eunuch friend has been and goneHe said that I must soldier onAnd though the ferris wheel spins roundMy tongue it seems has run agroundAnd croaks as my befuddled brainShines on brightly, quite insane
