A Passage to Bangkok

[Lestat]

Our first stop is in bogota
To check columbian fields
The natives smile and pass along
A sample of their yield
Sweet jamaican pipe dreams
Golden acapulco nights
Then morocco, and the east,
Fly by morning light

Were on the train to bangkok
Aboard the thailand express
Well hit the stops along the way
We only stop for the best

Wreathed in smoke in lebanon
We burn the midnight oil
The fragrance of afghanistan
Rewards a long days toil pulling into katmandu
Smoke rings fill the air
Perfumed by a nepal night
The express gets you there

Was never into Rush. In high school it was sort of Taboo, a few Rush fans but they were either latent homos or the D&D geeks who played Magic the Gathering all weekend.

I am a huge Tool fan as most people know, before some songs they play the opening Riff to A Passage to Bangkok, made me download the song.

That, and I have a friend who is a huge Rush fan, so I started listening to some deeper tracks, things like Witch Hunt, Natural Science, this shit is good, nothing like Tom Sawyer and other songs that were a little goofy and played out.

I am going to see Rush July 31st and have been listening to a lot to get into it and I'm enjoying it.

And yes, A Passage to Bangkok is my favorite Rush song. Its about weed if you didn't pick that up from the lyrics.

hear Tool open their song Cold and Ugly with the riff from A Passage to Bangkok.
