Lamb Lies Down On Broadway ,The Movie
Lyrics for Song: The Arrival
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Lamb Lies Down On Broadway ,The Movie
Rael:
I wandered lonely as a cloud,
Till I came upon this dirty street.
Ive never seen a stranger crowd;
Slubberdegullions on a squeaky feet,
Continually pacing,
With nonchalant embracing,
Each orifice disgracing
And one facing me moves to say hellay.
His skins all covered in slimy lumps.
With lips that slide across each chin.
His twisted limbs like rubber stamps
Are waved in welcome say Please join in.
My grip must be flipping,
Cos his handshake keeps slipping,
My hopes keep on dipping
And his lips keep on smiling all the time.
Slipperman:
We like you, have tasted love.
Dont be alarmed at what you see,
You yourself are just the same
As what you see in me.
Rael:
Me, like you? like that!
Slipperman:
You better watch it son, your sentence has only just begun
You better run and join your brother John.

The Arrival
The Arrival serves as the opening track for the soundtrack to the film adaptation of Genesis's ambitious rock opera, Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. This recording captures the frenetic energy and surreal narrative that defined the original 1974 album, translating the complex storytelling into a cinematic experience. The song introduces listeners to the chaotic world of Rael, the protagonist, setting a tone of disorientation and wonder that permeates the entire project. As part of the film's musical score, the track highlights the band's ability to blend progressive rock structures with theatrical flair. The performance maintains the intricate instrumentation and dynamic shifts characteristic of the era, offering a powerful song point into the story. It stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the work, bridging the gap between the studio recording and its visual interpretation for a new generation of fans. |
