1976 as a young lad these classic lyrics hit the stage, and instantly struck a common cord. Please review them now.
We’ve taken care of everything
The words you read
The songs you sing
The pictures that give pleasure
To your eye
One for all and all for one
Work together
Common sons
Never need to wonder
How or why
Rush 2112 (or 2022)
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
What a nice contented world
Let the banners
Be unfurled
Hold the Red Star proudly
High in hand.
2112

Hi NP,
I loved 2112 as a kid.
Great post.
I like the “sound bite” size, and yet very poignant.
