Did we really count to one hundred

Emerson Lake & Palmer... Brain Salad Surgery

Brain Salad Surgery is the fourth studio album by English progressive rock band Emerson, Lake & Palmer, released on 7 December 1973 by their new record label, Manticore Records, and distributed by Atlantic Records

I remember when it came out in my senior year in HS... during wrestling season, I used to go out on long distance training runs w/ Karn Evil 9  playing in my head.

I wanted to see these guys live and didn't have the opportunity, until many years later. My wife and I saw them at Brendan Byrne Arena @ the Meadowlands as Emerson Lake & POWELL... nice for nostalgia but it wasn't quite the same.

Karn Evil 9 full lyrics:

Cold and misty morning, I heard a warning borne in the air
About an age of power where no one had an hour to spare,
Where the seeds have withered, silent children shivered, in the cold
Now their faces captured in the lenses of the jackals for gold.

 

[D3 for LU]

I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there.

[D3 for LU]

Suffering in silence, they've all been betrayed.
They hurt them and they beat them, in a terrible way,
Praying for survival at the end of the day.
There is no compassion for those who stay.

[D3 for LU]

I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there.

[D3 for LU]

There must be someone who can set them free:
To take their sorrow from this odyssey
To help the helpless and the refugee
To protect what's left of humanity.

[D3 for LU]

Can't you see
Can't you see
Can't you see.

[D3 for LU]

I'll be there
I'll be there
I will be there;
To heal their sorrow
To beg and borrow
Fight tommorow.

[D3 for LU]

Step inside! Hello! We've the most amazing show

[D3 for LU]

Left behind the bars, rows of Bishops' heads in jars
and a bomb inside a car
Spectacular! Spectacular!

If you follow me there's a speciality
some tears for you to see
Misery, misery,

Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!

[D3 for LU]

Next upon the bill in our House of Vaudeville
We've a stripper in a till
What a thrill! What a thrill!

[D3 for LU]

And not content with that, with our hands behind our backs,
We pull Jesus from a hat,
Get into that! Get into that!

[D3 for LU]

Roll up! Roll up! Roll up!
See the show!

[D3 for LU]

Welcome back my friends to the show that never ends
We're so glad you could attend

[D3 for LU]

There behind a glass is a real blade of grass
be careful as you pass.
Move along! Move along!

[D3 for LU]

Come inside, the show's about to start
guaranteed to blow your head apart
Rest assured you'll get your money's worth
The greatest show in Heaven, Hell or Earth.
