Spiral - Jethro Tull
Written by:Ian Anderson
Kilometers from nowhere on a scented avenue
Lined with poppy girls
I didn't stop to say 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
I waited tables
I was tipped in roubles
Wine to water
Was the best that I that I could do
Wild office parties split the silence
Loaves and fishes at an empty table laid for two
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
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 as worlds collide
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
Spiral spiral
Spiral
