(Music: Marillion Lyrics: Steve Hogarth & John Helmer)
See those people there?
They look after me
This is a photograph of who I might be
Man in a uniform ... bride on his arm
Mum always was a fool for money and charm
He's been talkin' in his sleep again
Sayin' he's sorry, callin' my name
Sayin' how he's ashamed ...
Alone again in the lap of luxury
Since it happened I had nothin' to say
It used to bother them but now it's OK
Mother cleans his dreadful house every day
Scrubbing all the stains that won't go away
They sent me away to the school in the park
They said it would be good for me
I still hear the other kids cry in the dark
Alone again in the lap of luxury
Is there no escape
I don't remember the last time I cried
I don't remember much except lies
See the little girl spirallin' down
This is a photograph of who she is now
"One day this will all be yours" he said
Tidy your room and straight to bed
Tidy up those thoughts in your head
Alone again in the lap of luxury
I could be anywhere right now
If I only had the nerve to leave this house
Maybe somewhere by the sea ...
Take me somewhere, anywhere please!
We could make a pillow of sand and sleep
We could roll
We could make
We could see
We could scream
Far
Father
Farthest
Oh daddy ...
You do not do anymore ...
For God's sake don't pretend to be concerned ...
Turn into nightmares in the end
Throw a party for all my friends
Alone again in the lap of luxury
(i) now wash your hands
You give up hope
You settle down
With your favourite soap ...
Now wash your hands
Der musikalische text ALONE AGAIN IN THE LAP OF LUXURY von MARILLION ist auch in dem Album vorhanden Brave (1994)
Marillion è un gruppo musicale britannico di rock progressivo formatosi ad Aylesbury nel 1977. La formazione originale comprendeva Steve Hogarth (voce), Mark Kelly (tastiere), Pete Trewavas (basso) e Ian Mosley (batteria). Il loro sound, caratterizzato da melodie intricate, testi poetici e un'atmosfera spesso malinconica, ha conquistato un seguito fedele nel corso degli anni. Dopo il successo del primo album, *Script for a Jester's Tear* (1983), la band ha attraversato diverse fasi di evoluzione, con cambiamenti nella formazione e sperimentazioni musicali. Il loro periodo più popolare è stato negli anni '80, con album come *Fugazi* (1984) e *Misplaced Childhood* (1985). Negli anni '90, Marillion ha continuato a registrare e esibirsi, mantenendo un forte legame con i fan. Steve Hogarth è diventato il frontman principale nel 1989, portando la band verso una nuova era musicale. Alcuni dei loro brani più rappresentativi sono *Kayleigh*, *Incommunicado* e *The Leavers*. Marillion rimane oggi una delle band progressive più influenti e amate al mondo.
