I'm using one of Fish's lyrics for an English Class project.  I love the way he plays with meaning in words (to write my rites to right my wrongs).  I think I've narrowed it down to Script for a Jester's Tear and Forgotten Sons, but am open to advice and opinion.  Other potentials are Fugazi, Incubus, The Web.
Which is your favorite? Which would you suggest I use? Any other similar non Fish lyricist suggestions?

I would use Fugazi, the meaning of the lyrics changes mid way through the song and I find that cool. Forgotten Sons is also a good choice due to the Northern Ireland/Terrorism subject matter.Thumbs Up

Fugazi - there's Shakespeare AND Coleridge mixed in with Fish's own poetry.

Good luck untangling that lot!
