Testo For Michael Collins, Jeffrey And Me The Jethro Tull Experience
For Michael Collins, Jeffrey And Me
Watery eyes of the last sighing seconds, blue reflections mute and dim
Beckon tearful child of wonder to repentance of the sin
And the blind and lusty lovers of the great eternal lie
Go on believing nothing since something has to die
And the ape's curiosity, money power wins
And the yellow soft mountains move under him
I'm with you L.E.M. - though it's a shame that it had to be you
The mother ship is just a blip from your trip made for two
I'm with you boys, so please employ just a little extra care
It's on my mind, I'm left behind when I should have been there
Walking with you
And the limp face hungry viewers fight to fasten with their eyes
Like the man hung from the trapeze whose fall will satisfy
And congratulate each other on their rare and wondrous deed
That their begrudged money bought to sow the monkey's seed
And the yellow soft mountains, they grow very still
Witness as intrusion the humanoid thrill
I'm with you L.E.M. - though it's a shame that it had to be you
The mother ship is just a blip from our trip made for two
I'm with you boys, so please employ just a little extra care
It's on my mind, I'm left behind when I should have been there
Walking with you, with you, with you
