Llewellyn's version, as scripted on the reverse side of their album, The Heptones Instrumental Classics, seems a bit more intelligible, as it spoke about, 'Princesses and Kings in clown-clad, capers in sawdust rings, while common people like you and me, we'll be builders for eternity, each is given a bag of tools, a shapeless mask and a book of rules'.




heptones book of rules lyrics




After carefully examining Llewellyn's lyrics, we were led to paraphrase: 'It is strange how Princesses and Kings can jump or run about playfully (caper), like clowns in a circus, while common people like you and me, have to be toiling for eternity, with very little resources - a bag of tools, a shapeless mass, and a book of rules'. The unintelligible utterances of The Book of Rules, continued in the second stanza: 'Each must make his life as flowing in tumbling block or a stepping stone', which we unravelled as, 'each one should make, before life has flown, a stumbling block or a stepping stone'. The third stanza 'Look when the rain has fallen from the skies, you know the sun will be only missing for a while', along with the common refrain, 'While common people like you and me' etc., completes the recording.


Isn't it strange how princesses and kingsIn clown-ragged capers in sawdust ringsWhile common people like you and meWe'll be builders for eternityEach is given a bag of toolsA shapeless mass and the book of rules


Each must make his life as flowing inTumbling block on a stepping stoneWhile common people like you and meWe'll be builders for eternityEach is given a bag of toolsA shapeless mass and the book of rules


Look when the rain has fallen from the skyYou know the sun will be only with us for a whileWhile common people like you and meWe'll be builders for eternityEach is given a bag of toolsA shapeless mass and the book of rules
