cclxvi. GENTLE GIANT
So you're a GG fan in 1977, and you say to yourself, "geez, these guys really are amazing prog-rockers -- but I wonder if they could ever get down and play some simple two-chord rock & roll?"
betcha thought we couldn't do it?
**
I betcha thought we couldn't do it
And if you did we wouldn't try
I betcha thought we couldn't do it
But if we didn't we would die [sheesh]
We built our houses stone by stone
Little help, we were on our own
Made the town, torn it down. Now you
Know, tell me how it feels
We've been waiting such a long long
Time. To fit the pattern, fill the
Rhyme
Now we can't stick in our old ways
Now it's out we'll see how you feel
**
More prog-rock, please.
