Thread Name: Lyr Req: Who Will Answer? (from Ed Ames)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Who Will Answer?
I haven't checked out the links yet. I always kinda like to check out my memory first, if you know what I mean. I think he also did one that was very similar in sound (musically) called "Child of Clay" with the chorus going something like "Once he was a child, a child of clay, shaped and molded into what, what he is today, Ah but who is to blame for this child of clay."
There is some pretty good poetry in that first one but as I remember the "Child of Clay" it was pretty preachy or contrived to fit its time.
