Sparrow on The Schoolyard Wall Lyrics

Jethro Tull

Alright
You want to be a bookworm? Yeah, you wanna be aloof? You wanna sit in judgment Looking down from the roof?
Try a wee sensation But first you have to wanna join in
You should be, should be raging down the freeway With some friends from the mall Don't stay forever in your limbo, fly before you fall Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall Little sparrow on the wall, yeah
So dress a little dangerous Yes and modify your walk There's nothing wrong with sparrows But try to be a sparrow hawk
Hunting in the evening And floating in the heat in the day
You might, might acquire some predatory instinct Do the wolf pack crawl? Don't stay forever in your limbo, fly before you fall Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall Little sparrow on the wall
Well, I don't wanna be your daddy Don't wanna be your engineer of sin And I don't wanna play the piper here I'm only banging on a mandolin And anyway, you're just a little sparrow On the schoolyard wall, alright
There's nothing wrong with learning And nothing wrong with your books So exercise some judgment Too much broth can spoil the cook
Feel a little sensation And know when it's time to join in
You should be, should be raging down the freeway With some friends from the mall Don't stay forever in your limbo, fly before you fall, before you fall Little sparrow on the schoolyard, the schoolyard wall
Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall Little sparrow on the schoolyard wall Little sparrow on the schoolyard
