A song by yes.
The lyrics go as follows:
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 musing circumstances, that's just where you are.
This song is about the Vietnam
war, and about how soldiers crawled out of "dirty holes" (underground bunkers) and "their morals" would "disappear", simply meaning that they would have killed someone for no reason.
The song was very anti-
war, especially the vitenam
war.
