Vocation
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Splendid isolation
I'm moving round in splendid isolation
This is my vocation
I'm aiming for a higher destination
Gotta get in the right place at the right time
Doing the right thing
Gotta get in the right place at the right time
In the right style
Gotta get in the right time do the right thing
Joyful celebration
I'm spinning round in joyful celebration
Find a new vocation
Be witness to some sudden elevation
Spirit celebration
I'm reeling round in spirit celebration
Violent jubilation
When most lead lives of silent desperation
Splendid isolation
I'm moving round in splendid isolation
This is my vocation
I'm moving round I pern in a gyre, pern in a gyre
