Interesting Daniel. I think you have misinterpreted this piece. It is quite plain to me that Neil Peart was a major investor in Ericy Leaps and bought their CDMA expertise hook, line and sinker. I have provided the correct translation below. Bravado (Lyrics by Neil Peart) If we burn our wings Sun = Qualcomm Flying too close to the sun If the moment of glory Ericy forced to settle Is over before it's begun with QCOM If the dream is won -- Though everything is lost We will pay the price, Must pay royalties to QCOM But we will not count the cost ---- When the dust has cleared Customers see the truth A summit too lofty Chiprate too high River a little too wide Bandwidth too wide If we keep our pride -- QCOM agrees to protect Ericy Though paradise is lost reputation for capitulation We will pay the price, QCOM royalties (again) But we will not count the cost --- And if the music stops Ericy customers learn There's only the sound of the rain the truth of EDGE & GPRS All the hope and glory All the sacrifice in vain If the love remains Love of profit & prestige Though everything is lost denied We will pay the price, More QCOM royalties But we will not count the cost
