BtP's late-summer Prog Prize Competition 2012

Question 8/10


Listen again to Gary Brooker's 1982 solo album, Lead me to the Water – which has been re-released (2011) remastered, with bonus track – or read the words here ... and answer today's simple question: One of the most memorable bouts of wordplay on the album comes when Brooker echoes the names of two angling rivers (‘Usk and Wye’) with ‘Ask me why’. What is the first word of the song in which this happens?

Make a note of this one-word answer: you will need it on the final, tenth day of this competition.
