Jethro Tull - Astronomy Lyrics
The middle lane has trapped my carIn red-light claustrophobia.I slip the shackles, cut the rope ---Stand ***** with a telescopeAs the cat walks aloneUnder a big sky.Against the dark so thin and white ---Gonna be a big sky night.Miss galileo, come with meAnd view the new astronomy.Black hole dressing on salad plate ---Quasar at the kissing gate.Now the cat, he walks aloneUnder 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 keysTo the secrets of the observatory.And closing the door,I feel a new dawnAs 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.
