about

Part two of a rather whimsical and bizarre vision of the end of the world and the unlikely hero summoned to try and prevent it. In this part, the hero is recruited by the protagonist.

The opening sounds were originally produced by the sequencer crashing while playing the chorused M400 cello.

lyrics

I remember when I first met Bob
He was working at a fish'n'chip shop
Because he was normal, he thought I was crazy
When I told him he should stop
I said we needed a hero – the old man and I -
To try and stop the End of the World,
When death rains from the sky

I remember when I first met Bob
It was hard to make the picture clear
All I could tell him was the world was doomed
And all because of some old mystic's fear
I had to get close to him, and so I joined the line
The menu said that they served Baklawa
And I knew this was a sign

I remember when I first met Bob
And I asked if he believed in fate
He shrugged and turned towards the frying vat
And put some haddock on a paper plate
I told him 'bout the old man, and what we had to do
He threw his apron on the ground
And said “Hell, yes! I'll join you!”

Hey old man, why is doom so near?
Tell me just what it is you fear?
“His friends all call him 'Tim' but to his foes he is Baklawa Doom!”

IDiocracy - 2022 Remaster
by The Id

"There is lambswool under my naked feet..." - those words always come to my mind while listening to the first bars of "Wide Of The Mark". There's undoubtedly quite some "Genesis" heritage to be found in the music on this album. However, the band that is most closely related to "The ID" is certainly "IQ", which is among the favorite bands and artists named by both Peter Albrektsen (gtr, kbd) and Tim Pepper (v, kbd). So the similarity of the names "ID" vs. "IQ" is obviously not purely coincidental. Being a long-time admirer of the creative output of "IQ", this album inevitably reaches my heart. Sven B.
