Mr. Sands - Van Der Graaf Generator[00:00:00]

Soon as you like[00:00:35]

Ladies and gentlemen please take your seats[00:00:37]

In a moment there'll be a test of your endurance[00:00:41]

Stay in your chairs in the event of a dramatic pause[00:00:51]

Please be aware nothing gets covered by insurance[00:00:55]

One final thing[00:01:14]

Please take the trouble to read through your notes[00:01:16]

It's important that you know where you've got to go to[00:01:19]

Wait a moment[00:01:24]

Maybe the usherette'll show you[00:01:25]

Such excitement[00:01:29]

These are the hoops you've got to go through[00:01:30]

The noises off that turn you on stage whispered from the wings[00:01:42]

A stifled cough a joke that bombs[00:01:48]

A smoldering fuse wire string[00:01:51]

When Mr. sands is in the house the alarm bells start to ring[00:01:53]

Everything's in code[00:02:05]

In a world we barely know[00:02:07]

And the truth is only slowly revealed[00:02:09]

With best intentions I have strayed far off the beaten track[00:02:34]

And of attention I displayed a quite spectacular lack[00:02:40]

Now Mr. sands is in the house and the panic button's smacked[00:02:46]

Well Mr. sands is in the house commotion in the stalls[00:03:32]

And from the gods unruly shouts that echo round the hall[00:03:38]

Yes someone's let the secret out the safety curtain falls[00:03:44]

And as I look across the stage the thought that first occurs[00:04:20]

Is less that we have come of age and more that we're preserved[00:04:26]

To pass our time in different shades of ignorant reserve[00:04:32]

Everything's in code[00:04:38]

Till the moment it explodes[00:04:40]

We suspend belief get ready to go[00:04:43]

For the playout of the show[00:04:47]

Here it is for all we know[00:04:50]

Mr. sands is always ready to roll[00:04:52]
