Indeed the lyrics for an entire album would be hard to find.  However, 
the lyrics to "Here Comes the Flood" are printed on the inner sleeve
to Robert Fripp's 'Exposure' album, on which Gabriel and Fripp do a 
[wonderful] minimalist version of the tune.  Since I consider that 
song the most intense one on PG I, there's a start for you...
