    Prince Rupert Awakes
    Farewell the temple master's bells
    His kiosk and his black worm seed
    Courtship solely of his word
    With Eden guaranteed
    For now Prince Rupert's tears of glass
    Make saffron sabbath eyelids bleed
    Scar the sacred tablet of wax
    On which the Lizards feed
    Wake your reason's hollow vote
    Wear your blizzard season coat
    Burn a bridge and burn a boat
    Stake a Lizard by the throat
    Go Polonius or kneel
    The reapers name their harvest dawn
    All your tarnished devil's spoons
    Will rust beneath our corn
    Now bears Prince Rupert's garden roam
    Across his rain tree shaded lawn
    Lizard bones become the clay
    And there a swan is born
    Wake your reason's hollow vote
    Wear your blizzard season coat
    Burn a bridge and burn a boat
    Stake a Lizard by the throat
    Gone soon Piepowder's moss-weed court
    Round which upholstered Lizards sold
    Visions to their leaden flock
    Of rainbows' ends and gold
    Now tales Prince Rupert's peacock brings
    Of walls and trumpets thousand fold
    Prophets chained for burning masks
    And reels of dreams unrolled...

    Fun fact, this song was given a Japanese version that was used in the Movie Trilogy of Mobile Suit Gundam, that has been given many renditions of over the past several decades. Known as "Beginning" by Daisuke Inoue. Might want to give that a listen. Also there is an english translation of that song composed by Andrew W.K. from his Japanese album "Gundam Rock" that does it's best to translate what is being said in Japanese.

    Such an iconoclasm, such greatness, such an improbable cosmic landscape full of darkness, light, fear and wonder and above all mystery, with rehearsals that plunge you into a trance followed by sudden changes that wake you up, your eyes googly and quivering eyebrows.

    This was my first experience with King Crimson in 1970. Wearing out my older brother's LP and tripping out on the cover art and lyrics. I wasn't even getting high then but I tripped out nonetheless. Peter Sinfield is a master lyricist, especially during that golden age.

    A memory of spring reaching the peak of its thickest promise, magic, and romance: orchestras of tiny fantastic creatures play enchanting symphonies in the crowns of trees with the lushest foliage of green, to console forlorn lovers strolling at dusk. Street lamps against the backdrop of sapphire sky succumbing to the night in late May.

    Remembering Gordon Haskell born on April 27, 1946.He was an English musician and songwriter. Haskell gained recognition as bass player for the Fleur de Lys in 1966, and subsequently spent a short period in King Crimson. He sang on the album In the Wake of Poseidon (1970), and sang and played bass on Lizard (1971). - en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gordon_Haskell

    at la, st ! someone who can recognise the special etherial ,exploration of archytypes and their implications, and more.this was played after returning from al stewart at cousins,london on new years day,1971.me and friends were transfixed by its filmic sinister nature .the ist two were excellent,but lizard surpassed them. then,in keeping with the creeping dumb down that the 70s brought,the group became a very good jazz rock techo enterprise,but without sinfield that magic was lost.the lp gives me images of bosch,brughel the elder,and a sense of weirdness and alienation. i went last year to aldburgh where pete sinfield lives/lived and which has a very good but eerie atmosphere,being near rendelsham forest.
