作曲 : Ian Anderson
[00:08] Really don't mind if you sit this one out
[00:15] My words but a whisper your deafness a SHOUT
[00:22] I may make you feel but I can't make you think
[00:31] Your sperm's in the gutter your love's in the sink
[00:37] So you ride yourselves over the fields and
[00:42] You make all your animal deals and
[00:46] Your wise men don't know how it feels
[00:54] To be thick as a brick
[01:03] And the sand-castle virtues are all swept away
[01:11] In the tidal destruction the moral melee
[01:19] The elastic retreat rings the close of play
[01:26] As the last wave uncovers the newfangled way
[01:34] But your new shoes are worn at the heels
[01:38] And your suntan does rapidly peel
[01:43] And your wise men don't know how it feels
[01:50] To be thick as a brick
[02:01] And the love that I feel is so far away
[02:09] I'm a bad dream that I just had today
[02:19] And you shake your head and say it's a shame
[02:21] Spin me back down the years and the days of my youth
[02:39] Draw the lace and black curtains and shut out the whole truth
[02:48] Spin me down the long ages: let them sing the song
[03:08] See there! A son is born and we pronounce him fit to fight
[03:14] There are black-heads on his shoulders, and he pees himself in the night
[03:24] We'll make a man of him, put him to trade
[03:30] Teach him to play Monopoly and how to sing in the rain
