Notes

This was the first song I heard from Emerson, Lake, and Palmer, who was the coolest group when I was 12 years old for those who'd moved beyond top 40. I always thought the lyrics were pretty goofy but that synthesizer sound at the end was so different. Little did I know that Greg Lake wrote this when he was 12 and it landed on their first album because they didn't have enough material.
