Jethro Tull - Astronomy текст песни

The middle lane has trapped my car

In red-light claustrophobia.

I slip the shackles, cut the rope ---

Stand naked with a telescope

As the cat walks alone

Under a big sky.

Against the dark so thin and white ---

Gonna be a big sky night.

Miss galileo, come with me

And view the new astronomy.

Black hole dressing on salad plate ---

Quasar at the kissing gate.

Now the cat, he walks alone

Under a big sky.

Umbrella dome pin-pricked in lights ---

Gonna be a big sky night.

My spectacles, my white lab coat ---

My coffee, thermos and my notes.

I pat my pockets. I got the keys

To the secrets of the observatory.

And closing the door,

I feel a new dawn

As the darker slides align ---

You to yours and me to mine.

And now you stand, assisting me ---

I can touch what I can see, see, see.

I look in wonder, I feel no shame ---

See the consequences of the game.

Expand the universe.

Head for the big bang.

Reach for my switch and shout ---

Gonna turn the big sky out.

Theres got to be astronomy.

Astronomy.
