Thanks for sharing, but I think it's important for you to also quote the source he took it from. Alex Lifeson actually took the poem "Victor," by poet WH Auden. Auden is a brilliant poet and he wrote this poem. Alex only set it to music. This poem goes back to the 1930s. If you appreciate the lyrics to this song, look up Auden and see what else he has done. I love both Rush and Auden.
This song is so brilliantly twisted. My favorite from his solo album.
