Recently, this letter came across the Pigdump editorial desk:

You know, you're driving along with the radio on, only half listening and one of those seventies songs comes on, you know, one of those place name bands - Boston or Kansas or something - one of those overproduced songs with cloying harmonies (funny how harmony can be either sweet or cloying), and then for some reason you actually listen to the lyrics (probably for the first time) and you find yourself saying - whoa, what the hell was he on. And thanks to the magic of the internet...

"Carry On Wayward Son"
(Kerry Livgren)

(Chorus)
Carry on my wayward son,
For there'll be peace when you are done
Lay your weary head to rest
Now don't you cry no more

Once I rose above the noise and confusion
Just to get a glimpse beyond the illusion
I was soaring ever higher, but I flew too high
Though my eyes could see I still was a blind man
Though my mind could think I still was a mad man
I hear the voices when I'm dreamin',
I can hear them say

(Chorus)

Masquerading as a man with a reason
My charade is the event of the season
And if I claim to be a wise man, it surely
means that I don't know
On a stormy sea of moving emotion
Tossed about I'm like a ship on the ocean
I set a course for winds of fortune, but
I hear the voices say

Carry on, you will always remember
Carry on, nothing equals the splendor
Now your life's no longer empty
Surely heaven waits for you

"My charade is the event of the season"???!!!

No wonder Michael Stipe started off mumbling!
