Those times when a line or two just jumps into your head as you go about your daily grind.
This morning I had to drag myself into work very early and this popped into my head;
"...she runs for the train... She longs for the East and a pale dress flowing an apartment in old Mayfair.."
Great lyrics (and song) that perfectly catches a mood.

That song pops in my head quite a bit. Especially the part about the White Knight!

I think of some of the lyrics to B&TB a lot probably because it's an important album for me.
Anytime I read about politicians this comes to mind
"Synthetic chiefs with frozen smiles holding unsteady courses"

BS&TB had all sorts of anti-politician riffs...specifically ant- Reagen/Thatcher

Great lyrics (and song) that perfectly catches a mood. Nice one..... I find a lot of romance in the album, I love Seal Driver...... Take you away for my magic ship. I have two hundred diesel horses thundering loud. Sea birds call your name and the mountain's on fire As the summer lightening cuts the sky like a hot wire. And you ride on the swell and your heart is alive, Think I'll make you my seal driver.

I'm an inshore man...and I'm nobody's hero... But I'll make you tight for a windy night and a dark ride. Let me take you in hand and bring you alive. Going to make you my seal driver. Superb poetry..

Seal Driver has always been in my top ten Tull songs.....very underrated and only played live the year it was new.
