Jethro Tull - Wind-Up(1996)

[00:08.13] When I was young
[00:12.24] And they packed me off to school
[00:15.76] And taught me how not to play the game
[00:22.57] I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
[00:30.99] Or if they said that I was just a fool.
[00:37.98] So I left there in the morning
[00:42.42] With their God tucked underneath my arm
[00:46.12] Their half-assed smiles
[00:48.48] And the book of rules
[00:53.78] And I asked this God a question
[00:57.30] And by way of firm reply
[01:01.10] He said, "I'm not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays"
[01:08.56] So to my old headmaster
[01:12.54] (And to anyone who cares)
[01:16.26] Before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers
[01:23.52] I don't believe you
[01:27.35] You had the whole damn thing all wrong
[01:30.95] He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.
[01:37.78] Well, you can excommunicate me
[01:41.27] On my way to Sunday school
[01:44.86] And have all the bishops
[01:48.27] Harmonize these lines
[02:02.76] How do you dare tell me
[02:08.32] That I'm my Father's son?
[02:11.71] When that was just an accident of birth
[02:17.25] I'd rather look around me
[02:20.04] Compose a better song
[02:23.08] 'Cos that's the honest measure of my worth
[02:28.65] In your pomp and all your glory
[02:32.00] You're a poorer man than me
[02:34.72] As you lick the boots of death born out of fear
[02:44.08] When I was young
[02:46.33] And they packed me off to school
[02:49.18] And taught me how not to play the game
[02:55.05] I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
[03:00.33] Or if they said that I was just a fool
[03:06.27] Well, you can excommunicate me
[03:08.87] On my way to Sunday school
[03:12.15] And have all the bishops
[03:13.66] Harmonize these lines
[03:39.86] In your pomp and all your glory
[03:43.05] You're a poorer man than me
[03:46.06] As you lick the boots of death born out of fear
[04:06.82] When I was young
[04:08.59] And they packed me off to school
[04:11.83] And taught me how not to play the game
[04:18.75] I didn't mind if they groomed me for success
[04:27.24] Or if they said that I was just a fool.
[04:34.28] So to my old headmaster
[04:38.64] (And to anyone who cares)
[04:42.62] Before I'm through I'd like to say my prayers
[04:49.94] You can excommunicate me
[04:53.31] On my way to Sunday school
[04:56.48] And have all the bishops
[04:59.17] Harmonize these lines
[05:05.22] I don't believe you
[05:08.13] You had the whole damn thing all wrong
[05:11.73] He's not the kind you have to wind up on Sundays.
