Hey, what's up?

Obviously, I'm primarily a KC fan. I also love David Bowie/Ziggy Stardust, The Beatles, Zappa, and Zeppelin, to name a few.
 
Right now, I'm listening to Lizard and I think that could possibly be the catchiest (is that a word?) chorus ever.
 
Wake your reason's hollow vote
Wear your blizzard season coat
Burn a bridge and burn a boat
Stake a Lizard by the throat.
I'm in school (sadly) and one of our assignments in English is to bring in a set of song lyrics, but to focus on one line. I'm thinking Epitaph. Anyone want to explain the following?
 
The wall on which the prophets wrote
Is cracking at the seams.
Upon the instruments of death
The sunlight brightly gleams.
When every man is torn apart
With nightmares and with dreams,
Will no one lay the laurel wreath
As silence drowns the screams.
I guess that's enough about me for now.

^^^What if I told you have every King Crimson album studio album except Lizard and Thrak.  Its tue, I cannot say much about the Lizard.  I want it though.
 
Hoe does it stand up to the other Sinfield-era releases. I have been listening to Islands a lot recently.  I had a rennaissance with that album.

These lyrics have been etched into the back of English notebook along with VDGG's "Sleepwalkers."  Hammill and Sifield are the tow best prog rock lyricists ever, however I like Hamill better by a hair.

They're etched into mine right now. I write them down on pretty much everything. I got lucky, we put our lyrics in a pile and got somebody else's. My friend Brian got mine, and our assignment is to write a short story about them (about 5 pages). I got Wonderwall by Oasis and I hate that song AND the person wrote them down wrong.
