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.

Entangled Lyrics

Genesis

When youre asleep they may show you
Aerial views of the ground,
Freudian slumber empty of sound.
Over the rooftops and houses,
Lost as it tries to be seen,
Fields of incentive covered with green.
Mesmerised children are playing,
Meant to be seen but not heard,
Stop me from dreaming!
Dont be absurd!
Well if we can help you we will,
Youre looking tired and ill.
As I count backwards
Your eyes become heavier still.
Sleep, wont you allow yourself fall?
Nothing can hurt you at all.
With your consent
I can experiment further still.
Madrigal music is playing,
Voices can faintly be heard,
Please leave this patient undisturbed.
Sentenced to drift far away now,
Nothing is quite what it seems,
Sometimes entangled in your own dreams.
Well, if we can help you we will,
Soon as youre tired and ill.
With your consent
We can experiment further still.
Well, thanks to our kindness and skill
Youll have no trouble until
You catch your breath
And the nurse will present you the bill!
