Yes', "Close to the Edge"
The Funny Lyrics:
A seasoned witch could call you from the depths of your disgrace
and rearrange your liver to a solid mental grace
and rearrange your liver to a solid mental grace
Why They're funny:
The opening lines of this epic are vintage Jon Anderson. Well, if the witch is seasoned I'd like to know the sauce recipe. But I really love the 'rearrange your liver' bit - does this mean some thug saying 'we're gonna rearrange your belly a bit if you don't start listening, mate'?

If we were flowers we would worship the sun.
Why They're funny:
But we're not so we don't, Jon.

Yes', "Out Of The Roundabout"
The Funny Lyrics:
Out of the roundabout Mountains come out of the sky And they stand there
Why They're funny:
Yes's lyrics were typically baffling, but somehow one could always make them mean something or other. I first heard this particular snippet in the mid-70's and I'm still trying to get a handle on it.

Yes', "To Be Alive (Hep Yadda)"
The Funny Lyrics:
And I believe that everyone should get what they're allowed
Suspected of belief that comes
suspended in a sound
And everybody wants some
Suspected of belief that comes
suspended in a sound
And everybody wants some
Why They're funny:
'belief suspended in a sound'? To borrow an album title of the Moody Blues, these guys must be in search of the lost chord!
