You're putting King Crimson under your "never listen to again" list? They're hardly that difficult to listen to. If you're expecting prog of all genres to convey realistic stories, good luck finding something. Yes are pretty much known for their bizarre lyrics. Hell, give Jon Anderson's solo records a listen and you'll see what I mean.
