Name the Lyrical Passage

Cogs in Cogs by Gentle Giant.

here's mine..

Stub towers in the distance,
riders cross the blasted moor
against the horizon.
Fickle promises of treaty,
fatal harbingers of war, futile orisons
swirl as one in this flight, this mad chase,
this surge across the marshy mud landscape
until the meaning is forgotten.
Hood masks the eager face, skin stretched and sallow,
headlong into the chilling night, as swift as any.....

Googled? Shame on you! Well, donkey it is. NITS is 'art pop' somewhere between Japan or Talk Talk and Brian Eno's songs. Simple but sophisticated, not much rocking. Keys player Robert Jan Stips was responsible of SUPERSISTER. The singer/guitarist Henk Hofstede can be considered as the leader, and the third core member is percussionist Rob Kloet. Best albums IMO: In the Dutch Mountains ('87), Urk (live 2cd), Giant Normal Dwarf, Ting ('92). Of their earlier, more avant-gardish output Omsk ('82) is the most interesting.

PS. VDGG song is Arrow.

Well, what's the point of having an information super-highway if I'm not going to use it to broaden my horizons?

"Sitting on a park bench
eyeing little girls with bad intent.
Snot running down his nose
greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.
Drying in the cold sun
Watching as the frilly panties run.
Feeling like a dead duck
spitting out pieces of his broken luck."

Kansas - The Wall (What a good name for a Pink Floyd album!)

Next..

"And the nurse will tell you lies
Of a kingdom beyond the skies.
But I am lost within this half-world,
It hardly seems to matter now."

how about this:

Lord, I ain't goin' down to no race track
See no sports car run
I don't have no sports car
And I don't even care to have one
I can walk anytime around the block

Next...

Sadness on your shoulders like a wornout overcoat
In pockets creased and tattered hang the rags of your hope.
The daybreak is your midnight; the colours have all died.

"After all this time, they ask us to leave,

And I told them we could pay double the rent.

I don't know why it seemed so funny,

Seeing as how they'd take more money."

Now: " Out of the running, out of the game,
           out on your feet, clear out of range,
           out of context, out of contact,
           out of the woods. "

           and they light the dark hours,

Anus of Uranus by Klaatu

Now:

I've been a patron saint
I've had my mouth washed out
And I've been one big complaint
I turned myself into two separate gorillas?
