(keith emerson/greg lake/carl palmer)
Livin on a razors edge
Sharper than a knife
Surrender to the power of wedge
Keep running for your life
You dont need no periscope
You wont need second sight
Itll come at you so fast my friend
Its thank you and goodnight
Chorus
Caught in the river
You cant stop the flood
Thats the power of money, paper blood
Ambition flies on silver wings
Searching for a crown
King of kings, they pull the strings
Until they run you down
No matter what youve undergone
The measure of success
Is how much you can charge it on
American express
Chorus
You dont need to drive a car
And you dont need a house
And you dont need a guiding star
When living like a mouse
In the presidenttial suite
Theyd rather see you burn
Ducking and diving just to make ends meet
To the point of no return
Emerson, Lake and Palmer (ELP) are a legendary British progressive rock band formed in 1970. The trio consists of Keith Emerson (keyboards), Greg Lake (vocals, bass) and Carl Palmer (drums). Considered one of the first supergroups of progressive rock, ELP achieved international fame for their complex orchestral arrangements, energetic live performances and innovative use of electronic instruments. Among their most important albums are *Emerson, Lake and Palmer* (1970), *Tarkus* (1971), *Pictures at an Exhibition* (1971) and *Brain Salad Surgery* (1973). After a period of commercial success in the 1970s, ELP disbanded in 1978. A brief reunion without Palmer took place in 1985 under the name Emerson, Lake and Powell, followed by a full reunion in 1992 that led to new albums and tours until the late 1990s. Some of ELP's most representative songs include "Lucky Man", "Karn Evil 9", "Fanfare for the Common Man" and "Hoedown".
