Thick as a Brick (Edit #4) Jethro Tull

Really don't mind if you sit this one out
My words but a whisper - your deafness a SHOUT
I may make you feel but I can't make you think
Your sperm's in the gutter - your love's in the sink
So you ride yourselves over the fields and
You make all your animal deals and
Your wise men don't know how it feels to be thick as a brick
And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away
In the tidal destruction the moral melee
The elastic retreat rings the close of play
As the last wave uncovers the newfangled way
But your new shoes are worn at the heels and
Your suntan does rapidly peel and
Your wise men don't know how it feels to be thick as a brick

And the love that I feel is so far away:
I'm a bad dream that I just had today -
And you shake your head and say it's a shame

Spin me back down the years and the days of my youth
Draw the lace and black curtains and shut out the whole truth
Spin me down the long ages: let them sing the song

See there! A son is born - and we pronounce him fit to fight
There are black-heads on his shoulders, and he pees himself in the night
We'll make a man of him
Put him to trade
Teach him to play Monopoly
And how to sing in the rain
