It is widely regarded as one of the greatest songs ever penned by an Englishman-- not named Lennon or McCartney, but same era.

"This is my main concern with Obama; what if he has been groomed since childhood to blend in with the zionists and infidels? What if he has been led along by a radical islamic terrorist organization and positioned to become an influential politician?
What if Obama gets into White House and turns out to be some crazy muslim terrorist? What do we do then? We'll be pretty screwed. It could happen." -- by some fucking nutjob
Since the only artist which is from the same era and country as the Kinks ("Waterloo Sunset") on you list of recent vinyl pick-ups is the Troggs . . . then I guess it's the Troggs. I've got one little best of by them and I listened to it but did not hear that particular lyric.

I guess I'll give a clue. I know there have to be people here who know and love the album this is from. I was hoping to expand the game to a different audience.
Anyways, the band is an 80s prog-metal band, and the lyric is from one of my favorite albums of all time.

Well, to be fair, they continued making music into the 90s. Hell, they even released an album last year. It wasn't too good though. I'm sure that's helpful for a metal head such as yourself
Dream Theatre is the only band that comes to mind, were they around in the 80s?
Edit: Or maybe Queensryche, would you believe that I still own my vinyl copy of their self-titled EP that I bought in 9th grade?

Heh, that's impressive(or something). Yeah, it's Queensryche. I'm no Queensryche super fan, but I am an Operation Mindcrime super fan. There have to be other people around here who are fans. I guess they just don't click on the Guess the Song thread.

I stopped listening to them with The Warning, by that time I was too cool (read: the girls I was interested thought metal was not cool) for metal.

DOH! I wish I'd known that before I posted a Queensryche lyric. Now all the ladies of metacritic are gonna think I'm uncool.
Oh, wait, everybody already knows I'm uncool.
Oh, wait, there are no ladies of metacritic. In that case, proceeding with metal quote #2(the last one was "Revolution Calling"):
"The horsemen are drawing nearer On the leather steeds they ride They have come to take your life"
