Artist/Band: Gong
Lyrics for Song: Master Builder [Have A Cuppa Tea Edit]
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Gong



IAO ZA-I ZA-O


MA-I MA-O


TA-I TA-O NOW





Q: Master Builder, tell me how you make a temple ?


A: Tools and moon stones,


you don't really need them, you know...


Q: Master Builder, tell me what the temple's made of ?


A: Deep inside you,


you can build an invisible temple in your own imagination


if you will


Master Builder [Have A Cuppa Tea Edit]

Gong's 'Master Builder' stands as a quintessential example of the band's fusion of progressive rock with psychedelic and space rock elements. Recorded during the late 1970s, the track exemplifies the group's signature approach, blending intricate guitar work with atmospheric soundscapes and complex time signatures. The song reflects the era's fascination with Eastern philosophy and surrealism, themes often explored in Gong's discography alongside works like 'Radio Gnome Invisible.' This recording captures the band's ability to create immersive auditory journeys, utilizing synthesizers alongside traditional instrumentation to evoke a sense of cosmic exploration. As a staple of their catalog, it remains a defining piece of their contribution to the progressive rock genre, showcasing their unique ability to merge technical proficiency with ethereal mood.
