Swing It Far - Ian Anderson
I was no good on the rugger field
Pushing and kicking brutish
Boys bothered me
Sensitive and caring seemed the
Lighter brighter way to be
Mr Jennings good housemaster
Seemed instinctively to understand
Touched me with his gentle presence
Under bedclothes underhand Underhand
Overnight he did a runner
Threatened with harsh expose
I fell to pieces dropped out
Of classes into life's endless melee
Endless melee
Parents listened didn't get it
Poof and Jesse Daddy said
Mummy tried but fussed and fretted
Skeletons best left under bed
Under the bed
Camden Market in the winter
A cold stone's throw from Kentish Town
Got a minute Just the ticket
Meet the boys and mess around
And mess around
Independence far from suburbia
Doss down and dirty tucked up tight
How's your father Not too chipper
Serves the bugger flippin' right
Flippin' right
Parents listened didn't get it
Poof and Jesse Daddy said
Mummy tried but fussed and
Fretted skeletons best left under bed
On the streets a rude survival
Hot like minded overtures
Sad departure sweet arrival
If you don't like it right up yours
There comes a point when deep conviction
Bears down hard on who you are
Pointless to don cloak of denial
Get the lead out and swing it far swing it far
Swing it far swing it far swing it far swing it
