"Into the Lens"
The Lyrics: I are a camera
Why: I'm fully aware of the phrase 'I Am A Camera' which is the title of a 1951 Broadway play and a 1955 UK dramedy film based on the play but you would think a progressive rock band (as in 'thinking man's' rock) like YES would know better than to use such atrocious grammar like this. Get your arses back to elementary school, guys. You ain't learned your Queen's English very well! LOL

"Going for the One"
The Lyrics: Now the verses I've sang
Don't add much weight to the story in my head So I'm thinking I should go and write a punchline But they're so hard to find in my cosmic mind So I think I'll take a look out of the window Why: Imagine if you were a wannabe pop lyricist and had this set as your ringtone. Everybody would think you're admitting to writing songs that will never become hits!
