Jethro Tull "Teacher" lyrics

Translation to:uk

Teacher

Well the dawn was comingHeard him ringing on my bellHe said, "My name's the TeacherFor that is what I call myself"And I have a lessonThat I must impart to youIt's an old expressionBut I must insist it's true

Jump up, look around, find yourself some funNo sense in sitting there hating everyoneNo man's an island and his castle isn't homeThe nest is full of nothing when the bird has flown

So I took a journeyThrow my world into the seaWith me went the TeacherWho found fun instead of me

Hey man, what's the plan, what was that you saidSuntanned, drink in hand, lying there in bedI try to socialize but I can't seem to findWhat I was looking for, got something on my mind

Then the Teacher told meIt had been a lot of funThanked me for his ticketAnd all that I had done
