Spiral - Jethro Tull

Kilometers from nowhere on a scented avenue —

Lined with poppy girls

I didn’t stop, stop to say hello

Curious vendors — waving bric-a-brac —

Looked me over —

Thought it best, best that I should go

Don’t wake me: I’m falling

Slow spiral into morning

Who’s out there?

Can’t hear you

Ears covered — early warning

Alarm bells ringing

Time to make my peace with the dreary day

I waited tables — I was tipped in roubles

Wine to water

Was the best that I could do

Wild office parties split the silence

Loaves and fishes at an empty table laid for two

Down the spiral, spinning madly

Gathering momentum

On a disneyesque adventure ride

I fly in colours from richer palettes

Famous artists running scared as worlds collide
