Testo No Lullaby - Jethro Tull
Testo della canzone No Lullaby (Jethro Tull), tratta dall'album Bursting Out: Jethro Tull Live (Remastered)
Keep your eyes open and prick up your ears
Rehearse your loudest cry
But there's folk out there who would do you harm
So I'll sing you no lullaby
There's a lock on the window, there's a chain on the door
And a big dog in the hall
But there's dragons and beasties out there in the night
To snatch you if you fall
So come out fighting with your rattle in hand
Thrust and parry light
A match to catch the devil's eye
Bring across of fire to the fight
And let no sleep bring false relief
From the tension of the fray
Come wake the dead with the scream of life
Do battle with ghosts at play
And gather your toys at the call of arms
And swing your big bear down
Upon our necks when we come to set
You sleeping safe and sound
It's as well we tell no lie
To chase the face that cries
And little birds can't fly
So keep an open eye
It's as well we tell no lie
So I sing you no lullaby
It's as well we tell no lie
To chase the face that cries
And little birds can't fly
So keep an open eye
It's as well we tell no lie
So I sing you no lullaby
Keep your eyes open and prick up your ears
Rehearse your loudest cry
There's folk out there who would do you harm
So I'll sing you no lullaby
There's a lock on the window, there's a chain on the door
And a big dog in the hall
But there's dragons and beasties out there in the night
To snatch you if you fall
So come out fighting with your rattle in hand
Thrust and parry light
A match to catch the devil's eye
Bring across of fire to the fight
And let no sleep bring false relief
From the tension of the fray
Come wake the dead with the scream of life
Do battle with ghosts at play
Gather your toys at the call of arms
And swing your big bear down
Upon our necks when we come to set
You sleeping safe and sound
It's as well we tell no lie
To chase the face that cries
And little birds can't fly
So keep an open eye
It's as well we tell no lie
So I sing you no lullaby
It's as well we tell no lie
To chase the face that cries
And little birds can't fly
So keep an open eye
It's as well we tell no lie
So I sing you no lullaby
