Yours is No Disgrace by Yes

Lyrics:
Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer change to winter, yours is no disgrace.

Battleships confide in me and tell me where you are,
Shining, flying, purple wolfhound, show me where you are,
Lost in summer, morning, winter, travel very far,
Lost in losing circumstances, that's just where you are.

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer change to winter, yours is no,
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.

Death defying, mutilated armies scatter the earth,
Crawling out of dirty holes, their morals, their morals disappear.

Yesterday a morning came, a smile upon your face.
Caesar's palace, morning glory, silly human, silly human race,
On a sailing ship to nowhere, leaving any place,
If the summer change to winter, yours is no,
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.
Yours is no disgrace.

@ladmex53 The Yesyears book quotes Chris as saying he "never understood the term 'rock and roll' applying to Yes"...they're so much more than that. BTW, "Wonderous Stories" was their other #1 hit (in the UK). Didn't the Tales album also reach #1 in the UK (sadly, as Wakeman left the group for the first time)? Having learned more facts since, I now think the Vietnamese were the real aggressors; this song could very well have described them.

@ladmex53 Probably for the same reason that their most widely known song, and only number one hit, is 'Owner of a Lonely Heart.' I remember when the Yes Album came out. I was only 9, but luckily my older sisters knew what progressive rock was. They were playing crap like Three Dog Night on the radio, and kids my age were singing 'Joy to the World' into their reel-to-reel tape machines. The Yes Album was truly magical, much like Genesis 'Selling England by the Pound' was a couple of years later.

@FishPornSkateVideos Amen to that!

[FishPornSkateVideos]

@ladmex53 Go figure, neither is Rush? The two greatest prog rock bands to ever live. I will not attend the RRHF until they are in.

Am I wrong or is YES not in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame? If not, what is wrong with this picture}:

[schmittelt]

OK, is it really "scatter the earth"? Because, I've always thought it was "gather near" with "near" pronounced with two syllables. Nee-er
