"All There in the Manual: The story Gabriel wrote for the liner notes of The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway.
- Several songs from Duke was originally part of a suite (see Concept Album) called "The Story of Albert". When the suite was performed live on the "Duke Tour" in 1980, Collins used to introduce it by telling this story. You can read it here.
- It's well-known that the relevant songs form a suite, but no way is that string of obvious jokes its intended plot, if it even has one."

Probably should get working on that essay now...
I would like to suggest moving this over to YMMV.
"The Reason You Suck" Speech: To the titular creature in the final verse of "Squonk": All in all you are a very dying race Placing trust upon a cruel world.

That may not be the only interpretation of the song.
