Although this should be a different thread the no-contest-all-time-worst/best-lyrics-challenge-belt-winner is Oceans by Eloy. Any track, but the following from the snappily titled "Atlantis' Agony at June 5th - 8498, 13 P.M. Gregorian Earthtime" are a particular joy:

Spirits darken the sky!
The divine guided missile is on it's way,
and it's especially directed by:
"Emnasut" - first genius of the Sun-sphere
"Gomah" - first genius of the Venus-sphere
"Ebvap" - first genius of the Moon-sphere
"Aschmunadai" - first genius of the Earth-sphere

We do not know, but they do, and they remember:
A liquid fire appears in the sky
The flash of life is radiating
The flash of death - we're surrendered
It's light shines! Shine on!
It's light shines! Shine on!

Sigh. Unheralded genius. Written by the drummer...

That's ace. Like a Primark Jon Anderson. I can't but help but be slightly awed.
