Listen, Learn, Read On (2000 Remaster) - Deep Purple

In ages past when spells were cast

In a time of men in steel

When a man was taught no special thing

It was all done by feel

So listen so learn so read on

You gotta turn the page

Read the Book of Taliesyn

Hear the song of lovely Joan

Her sound so sweet and clear

In the courtroom of the King

Among children and the peers

So listen so learn so read on

You gotta turn the page

Read the Book of Taliesyn

"Now hear ye the words of Taliesyn

On the foaming beach of the ocean

In the day of trouble

I shall be of more service to thee

Than three hundred salmon "

The hare he bounds across the page

Past castles white and fair

Past dreaming chessmen on their boards

With a fool's mate as a snare

So listen so learn so read on

You gotta turn the page

Read the Book of Taliesyn

So listen so learn so read on

You gotta turn the page

Read the Book of Taliesyn

So listen so learn so read on

You gotta turn the page

Read the Book of Taliesyn

Don't take the pictures lightly

Listen to their sound

For from their coloured feeling

Experience is found

So listen so learn so read on

You gotta turn the page

Read the Book of Taliesyn

"All the sciences of

The world are collected in my breast

For I know what has been what is now

And what hereafter will occur "
