Windy bus stop. Click. Shop window. Heel.
Shady gentleman. Fly button. Feel.
In the underpass, the blind man stands.
With cold flute hands.
Symphony match seller, breath out of time.
You can call me on another line.
Indian restaurants that curry my brain.
Newspaper warriors changing the names,
they advertise from the station stand.
With cold print hands.
Symphony word player, I'll be your headline.
If you catch me another time.
Didn't make her with my Baker Street Ruse.
Couldn't shake her with my Baker Street Bruise.
Like to take her but I'm just a Baker Street Muse.
Ale spew, puddle brew boys, throw it up clean.
Coke and Bacardi colours them green.
From the typing pool goes the mini skirted princess
with great finesse.
Fertile earth mother, your burial mound is fifty feet
down in the Baker Street underground. (What the hell!)
Didn't make her with my Baker Street Ruse.
Couldn't shake her with my Baker Street Bruise.
Like to take her but I'm just a Baker Street Muse.
Walking down the gutter thinking, How the hell am I today?''
Well, I didn't really ask you but thanks all the same.
a) Pig Me And The Whore
Big bottled Fraulein, put your weight on me,''
said the pig me to the whore,
desperate for more in his assault upon the mountain.
Little man, his youth a fountain.
Overdrafted and still counting.
Vernacular, verbose; an attempt at getting close
to where he came from.
In the doorway of the stars,
between Blandford Street and Mars;
Proposition, deal. Flying button feel. Testicle testing.
Wallet ever bulging. Dressed to the left, divulging
the wrinkles of his years.
Wedding bell induced fears.
Shedding bell end tears in the pocket of her resistance.
International assistance flowing generous and full
to his never ready tool.
Pulls his eyes over her wool.
And he shudders as he comes.
And my rudder slowly turns me into the Marylebone Road.
b) Crash Barrier Waltzer
And here slip I dragging one foot in the gutter
in the midnight echo of the shop that sells cheap radios.
And there sits she no bed, no bread, no butter
on a double yellow line where she can park anytime.
Old Lady Grey; crash barrier waltzer
some only son's mother.
Baker Street casualty.
Oh, Mr. Policeman
blue shirt ballet master.
Feet in sticking plaster
move the old lady on.
Strange pas de deux
his Romeo to her Juliet.
Her sleeping draught, his poisoned regret.
No drunken bums allowed
to sleep here in the crowded emptiness.
Oh officer, let me send her to a cheap hotel.
I'll pay the bill and make her well
like hell you bloody will!
No do good over kill.
We must teach them to be still
more independent.
c) Mother England Reverie
I have no time for Time Magazine or Rolling Stone.
I have no wish for wishing wells or wishing bones.
I have no house in the country I have no motor car.
And if you think I'm joking, then I'm just a one line joker in a public bar.
And it seems there's no body left for tennis; and I'm a one band man.
And I want no Top Twenty funeral or a hundred grand.
There was a little boy stood on a burning log,
rubbing his hands with glee. He said, Oh Mother England,
did you light my smile;
or did you light this fire under me?
One day I'll be a minstrel in the gallery.
And paint you a picture of the queen.
And if sometimes I sing to a cynical degree
it's just the nonsense that it seems.''
So I drift down through the Baker Street valley,
in my steep sided un reality.
And when all is said and all is done
I couldn't wish for a better one.
It's a real life ripe dead certainty
that I'm just a Baker Street Muse.
Talking to the gutter stinking, winking in the same old way.
I tried to catch my eye but I looked the other way.
Indian restaurants that curry my brain
newspaper warriors changing the names
they advertise from the station stand.
Circumcised with cold print hands.
Windy bus stop. Click. Shop window. Heel.
Shady gentleman. Fly button. Feel.
In the underpass, the blind man stands.
With cold flute hands.
Symphony match seller, breath out of time
you can call me on another line.
Didn't make her with my Baker Street Ruse.
Couldn't shake her with my Baker Street Bruise.
Like to take her but I'm just a Baker Street Muse.
(I can't get out!)
Jethro Tull married British blues and folk music into a popular rock flavour, but like most UK bands of the late 1960s and 70s, they ditched the blues for a harder-sounding guitar and, in Jethro Tull's case, a prominent flute, on-stage theatrics, and album-length concept songs like "Thick as a Brick".
