Genesis was the most popular progressive rockband in the '70s, '80s and '90s. During the 70's Peter Gabrielwas the lead singer until he went solo and Phil Collinsreplaced him as lead singer. Starting as an amalgam of two bands formed by schoolboys attending Charterhouse School in Godalming, England, the original lineup consisted of Gabriel, Anthony Phillips, Tony Banks, Mike Rutherford and Chris Stewart, though Stewart was soon replaced as drummer by John Silver and then John Mayhew. By 1970, Phillips and Mayhew had left the band, with Collins joining as drummer, and by early 1971, guitarist Steve Hackett had filled the gap left by Phillips. The lineup of Gabriel, Banks, Hackett, Rutherford and Collins remained in place until Gabriel's departure in 1975.

Abacab Lyrics

Genesis

Look up on the wall, there on the floor,
Under the pillow, behind the door.
Theres a crack in the mirror.
Somewhere theres a hole in a window-pane.
Do you think Im to blame?
Tell me do you think Im to blame?
(when they do it) youre never there.
(when they show it) you stop and stare.
(abacab) hes in anywhere.
(abacab)
If youre wrapping up the world
cos youve taken someone elses girl,
When they turn on the pillow,
Even when they answer the telephone,
Dont you think that by now,
Tell me, dont you think that by now.
(when they do it) youre never there.
(when they show it) you stop and stare.
(abacab) hes in anywhere.
(abacab) doesnt really care.
You want it, you got it, you gotta go
You want it, you got it, now you know
Its an illusion, its a game,
Or reflection of someone elses name.
When you wake in the morning,
Wake and find youre covered in cellophane.
Well, theres a hole in there somewhere.
Yeah, theres a hole in there somewhere.
Baby, theres a hole in there somewhere.
Now theres a hole in there somewhere.
(when they do it) youre never there.
(when they show it) you stop and stare.
(abacab) hes in anywhere.
