"Pandora's box" was de laatste Top 40 hit voor Procol Harum voordat de groep - tijdelijk - in 1977 werd ontbonden. Inmiddels treedt de band met enkele oude bandleden weer regelmatig op.

Trivia

Wist je dat? Pandora was in de Griekse mythologie de eerste vrouw op aarde die door Hephaistos uit aarde en water werd gevormd en van de goden alle gaven (kunstvaardigheid, bekoorlijkheid enz.) heeft gekregen. Als straf voor Prometheus` diefstal van het vuur zendt Zeus Pandora met een doos vol rampspoed naar de mensen.

Songtekst

While horsemen ride across the green
And snow white still remains unseen.
Pegasus, the winged horse,
Relays his messages by morse.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the spanish main
And brought our magic carpet
To a marble staircased plain.

While Handel plays his melody
Doctors cause uncertainty
And though I know the lifeguard's brave
There is no one for him to save.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the spanish main
And brought our magic carpet
To a marble staircased plain.

Cock Robin views his frozen feet
And wraps them in a winding sheet
And calls out for his favourite drink
The persian that's as warm as mink.
And like some pirate sailor
We crossed the spanish main
And brought our magic carpet
To a marble staircased plain.
