Lyrics (Part III)
Cock Robin views his frozen feet
and wraps them in a winding sheet
and calls out for his favourite drink
the Persian that's as warm as mink.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the Spanish Main
And brought our magic carpet
to a marble staircased plain.

Lyrics (Part I)
While horsemen ride across the green
and Snow White still remains unseen.
Pegasus, the winged horse,
relays his messages by Morse.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the Spanish Main
And brought our magic carpet
to a marble staircased plain.

..and I always thought there was a flute solo....well, what sounds like a flute to me is apparently keyboards but I LOVE it. Their best song!

I'd like to know as well. Strange stuff, it surely is

Very overlooked hit single from Procol Harum.

@DeanFirefly Good luck trying to work it out.
Brilliant song and fantastic lyrics. If anyone can tell me what they (the lyrics) mean I'd be very grateful as I've been trying to decode them for over 30 years on and off and although I have a pretty good idea of their meaning a definitive translation would be most welcome.
