Procol Harum - Homburg 1967 Follow up of 'A whiter shade of pale' Gary Brooker - Keys, vocals BJ wilson - Drums David Knights - Bass Robin Trower - Guitar Matthew Fisher - Organ Your multilingual business friend Has packed her bags and fled Leaving only ash-filled ashtrays And the lipsticked unmade bed The mirror on reflection Has climbed back upon the wall For the floor she found descended And the ceiling was too tall Your trouser cuffs are dirty And your shoes are laced up wrong You'd better take off your homburg 'cos your overcoat is too long The town clock in the market square Stands waiting for the hour When it's hands they both turn backwards And on meeting will devour Both themselves and also any fool Who dares to tell the time And the sun and moon will shatter And the signposts cease to sign Your trouser cuffs are dirty And your shoes are laced up wrong You'd better take off your homburg 'cos your overcoat is too long Your trouser cuffs are dirty And your shoes are laced up wrong You'd better take off your homburg 'cos your overcoat is too long Your trouser cuffs are dirty And your shoes are laced up wrong You'd better take off your homburg 'cos your overcoat is too long. + Informações

Lyrics: We skipped a light fandango, Turned cartwheels 'cross the floor. I was feeling kind of seasick, But the crowd called out for more. The room was humming harder, As the ceiling flew away. When we called out for another drink, The waiter brought a tray. And so it was that later, As the miller told his tale, That her face at first just ghostly, Turned a whiter shade of pale. She said there is no reason, And the truth is plain to see That I wandered through my playing cards, And would not let her be One of sixteen vestal virgins Who were leaving for the coast. And although my eyes were open, They might just as well have been closed. And so it was later, As the miller told his tale, That her face at first just ghostly, Turned a whiter shade of pale.. + Informações

Procol Harum in Copenhagen, 2001. Gary Brooker & Matthew Fisher! Conquistador - 1967 Conquistador your stallion stands In need of company And like some angel's haloed brow You reek of purity I see your armour-plated breast Has long since lost its sheen And in your death mask face There are no signs which can be seen And though i hoped for something to find I could see no maze to unwind Conquistador a vulture sits Upon your silver shield And in your rusty scabbard now The sand has taken seed And though your jewel-encrusted blade Has not been plundered still The sea has washed across your face And taken of its fill And though i hoped for something to find I could see no maze to unwind Conquistador there is no time I must pay my respect And though i came to jeer at you I leave now with regret And as the gloom begins to fall I see there is no, only all And though you came with sword held high You did not conquer, only die And though i hoped for something to find I could see no maze to unwind. + Informações
