Palace Posy

Appears on	Tomorrow's Harvest

Some have suggested the lyrics sound like "We have everything" or something similar to that. ^[2] ^[3]

MrMessiah on Twoism posted a link to a old VHS clip where the word "eleven" is said to sound similar to the sample in the song.^[4]. This same Twoism member cut up the sample and played it through a sampler, giving something that sounds quite similar to the lyrics in the song.^[5]
The book The Eleventh Hour by Graeme Base might be the reason for the "Eleven" sample, and Base's other book, "The Waterhole," is a story about an African waterhole drying up. Each page has a frieze with animals that can be found disguised somewhere in the drawings, such as in foliage. I remember discussing myths that each page had a dodo bird somewhere in it?^[6]

A palace is the official residence of a sovereign, archbishop, bishop, or other exalted person. The word derives from the Latin palatium, from Palatium, the Palatine Hill in Rome where the emperors' residences were built.^[7]

A posy is a brief sentiment, motto, or legend. Alternatively it is a word for a flower or bouquet of flowers. During the Plague, posies of herbs were carried as protection and to ward off the smell of the disease. The gas mask, like those featured in the album artwork, could be the modern equivalent. ^[8]
