messages from the 80 I. OVERTURE ------------------------------------------------------------- And the meek shall inherit the earth. II. THE TEMPLES OF SYRINX ------------------------------------------------------------- Weve taken care of everything The words you hear the songs you sing The pictures that give pleasure to your eyes. Its one for all and all for one We work together common sons Never need to wonder how or why. We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls. We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls. Look around this world we made Equality our stock in trade Come and join the Brotherhood of Man Oh what a nice contented world Let the banners be unfurled Hold the Red Star proudly high in hand. We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx Our great computers fill the hallowed halls. We are the Priests, of the Temples of Syrinx All the gifts of life are held within our walls. Lyrics by Neil Peart Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson III. DISCOVERY ------------------------------------------------------------- What can this strange device be? When I touch it, it gives forth a sound Its got wires that vibrate and give music What can this thing be that I found? See how it sings like a sad heart And joyously screams out its pain Chords that build high like a mountain Or notes that fall gently like rain. I cant wait to share this new wonder The people will all see its light Let them all make their own music The Priests praise my name on this night. Lyrics by Neil Peart Music by Alex Lifeson IV. PRESENTATION ------------------------------------------------------------- I know its most unusual To come before you so But Ive found an ancient miracle I thought that you should know Listen to my music And hear what it can do Theres something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you. The Priests: Yes, we know its nothing new Its just a waste of time We have no need for ancient ways The world is doing fine Another toy will help destroy The elder race of man Forget about your silly whim It doesnt fit the plan. I cant believe youre saying These things just cant be true Our world could use this beauty Just think what we might do. Listen to my music And hear what it can do Theres something here as strong as life I know that it will reach you. The Priests: Dont annoy us further We have our work to do. Just think about the average What use have they for you? Another toy will help destroy The elder race of man Forget about your silly whim It doesnt fit the plan. Lyrics by Neil Peart Music by Alex Lifeson V. ORACLE: THE DREAM ------------------------------------------------------------- I wandered home though the silent streets And fell into a fitful sleep Escape to realms beyond the night Dream cant you show me the light? I stand atop a spiral stair An oracle confronts me there He leads me on light years away Through astral nights, galactic days I see the works of gifted hands That grace this strange and wondrous land I see the hand of man arise With hungry mind and open eyes They left the planet long ago The elder race still learn and grow Their power grows with purpose strong To claim the home where they belong Home, to tear the Temples down... Home, to change.. Lyrics by Neil Peart Music by Geddy Lee and Alex Lifeson VI. SOLILOQUY ------------------------------------------------------------- The sleep is still in my eyes The dream is still in my head I heave a sigh and sadly smile And lie a while in bed I wish that it might come to pass Not fade like all my dreams Just think of what my life might be In a world like I have seen I dont think I can carry on Carry on this cold and empty life Oh...noo. My spirits are low in the depths of despair My lifeblood spills over.. VII. GRAND FINALE --------------------------------------------------------------------------- ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION ATTENTION ALL PLANETS OF THE SOLAR FEDERATION WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL WE HAVE ASSUMED CONTROL THE GALACTIC FEDERATION OF LIGHT
