Wind Up (Quad Version)

Wind Up (Quad Version) - Jethro Tull[00:00:00]

When I was young and they packed me off to school[00:00:09]

And taught me how not to play the game [00:00:16]

I didnt mind if they groomed me for success [00:00:24]

Or if they said that I was a fool [00:00:31]

So I left there in the morning[00:00:38]

With their God tucked underneath my arm --[00:00:42]

Their half-assed smiles and the book of rules [00:00:46]

So I asked this God a question[00:00:54]

And by way of firm reply [00:00:57]

He said -- I'm not the kind you have to wind up on sundays [00:01:01]

So to my old headmaster (and to anyone who cares):[00:01:09]

Before I'm through Id like to say my prayers --[00:01:16]

I don't believe you:[00:01:24]

You had the whole damn thing all wrong --[00:01:27]

Hes not the kind you have to wind up on sundays [00:01:31]

Well you can excomunicate me on my way to sunday school[00:01:38]

And have all the bishops harmonize these lines --[00:01:45]

How do you dare tell me that I'm my fathers son[00:02:06]

When that was just an accident of birth [00:02:11]

Id rather look around me -- compose a better song[00:02:14]

'cos thats the honest measure of my worth [00:02:23]

In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me [00:02:29]

As you lick the boots of death born out of fear [00:02:34]

I don't believe you:[00:02:45]

You had the whole damn thing all wrong --[00:02:46]

Hes not the kind you have to wind up on sundays [00:02:49]

Id rather look around me -- compose a better song[00:02:58]

'cos thats the honest measure of my worth [00:03:01]

In your pomp and all your glory you're a poorer man than me [00:03:05]

As you lick the boots of death born out of fear [00:03:10]

I don't believe you:[00:03:14]

You had the whole damn thing all wrong --[00:03:15]

Hes not the kind you have to wind up on sundays[00:03:18]
