The conclusion 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 old man returns and things happen.
lyrics
“You think I'm an old man, do you? But you don't know...
My exile started thirty thousand years ago
But now it's over and so, all thanks to you...
I'll rule this planet and the whole empire too
And it's done, I'm twenty times cooler - Overlord and galaxy's ruler!”
Hey, old man, who has come from space
Are you worse than the smiley face...?
“My servants call me 'Tim' but to my subjects I'm Baklawa Doom!”

"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.
