Experience Lyrics

[Chorus]
Here's to Emily, old age and memory
Here's to the people who live in a shell
Here's to Emily, one for poor Ebony
One for the road where pedestrians dwell

[Verse 1]
So self-assured, complacent and bored
Our hero opens a box on the shelf
Containing advice, so worldly and wise
Welcomes his children to help themselves

[Chorus]
Here's to Emily, old age and memory
Here's to the people who live in a shell
Here's to Emily, one for poor Ebony
One for the road where pedestrians dwell

[Verse 2]
He hasn't time for riddle or rhyme
Too busy biding machines at the plant
He married young, his past is his pocket
Beginnings and endings escape from this ant

[Chorus]
Here's to Emily, old age and memory
Here's to the people who live in a shell
Here's to Emily, one for poor Ebony
One for the road where pedestrians dwell

[Verse 3]
Baptized, materialized, no time to realize
Caught in the current and drowned in the well
In about fifty, stubborn and empty
Hands out the world for his children to sell

[Chorus]
Here's to Emily, old age and memory
Here's to the people who live in a shell
Here's to Emily, one for poor Ebony
One for the road where pedestrians dwell

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
Here's to Emily, old age and memory
Here's to the people who live in a shell
Here's to Emily, one for poor Ebony
One for the road where pedestrians dwell
