Wind-Up

Aqualung Live专辑

  • 作词 : Ian Anderson
    作曲 : Ian Anderson
    When I was young and they packed me off to school
    And they taught me how not to play the game
    Oh, I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
    Or if they said that
    I was just a fool
    So I left there in the morning
    With their
    God under my arm
    Their half assed smiles and the book of rules
    Then I asked this
    God a question
    And by way of firm reply
    He said, "I'm not the kind you have to wind-up on Sundays"
    And to my old headmaster and to anyone who cares
    Before I'm through
    I'd like to say my prayers
    Oh, I don't believe you, you had the whole damn thing all wrong
    And he's not the kind you have to wind-up on
    SundayWell, you can excommunicate me on my way to
    Sunday school
    And have all the
    Bishops harmonize these lines
    How do you dare tell me that
    I'm my father's son
    When that was just an accident of birth?
    Oh, I'd rather look around me, compose a better song'
    Cos that's the honest measure of my worth
    And in your pomp and all your glory, you're a poorer man than me
    As you lick the boots of death born out of fear
    When I was young and they packed me off to school
    And they taught me how not to play the game
    Oh, I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
    Or if they said that
    I was just a fool
    And so I left there in the morning
    With their
    God under my arm
    The half assed smiles and the book of rules
    And you can excommunicate me on my way to

    And he's not the kind you have to wind-up on a
    Sunday
