Jethro Tull - Sparrow On The Schoolyard Wall download mp3

Lyrics

You want to be a bookworm? You wanna be aloof?
You wanna sit in judgement, looking down from the roof?
Try a wee sensation: but first you have to want to join in
You should be, should be raging down the freeway
With some friends from the mall
Don’t stay forever in your limbo: fly before you fall
Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall
So dress a little dangerous and modify your walk
There’s nothing wrong with sparrows, but try
To be a sparrowhawk
Hunting in the evening and floating in the heat in the day
You might, might acquire some predatory instinct
Do the wolf pack crawl
Don’t stay forever in your limbo: fly before you fall
Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall
Well, I don’t want to be your daddy
Don’t want to be your engineer of sin
And I don’t want to play the piper here
I’m only banging on a mandolin
And anyway, you’re just a little sparrow
On the schoolyard wall
There’s nothing wrong with learning. Nothing wrong
With your books
So exercise some judgement. Too much broth can spoil the cook
Feel a little sensation and know when it’s time to join in
You should be, should be raging down the freeway
With some friends from the mall
Don’t stay forever in your limbo: fly before you fall
Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall
