A bonus track off of the Stormwatch album.

Lyrics - I work in dark factories, a cog in the big wheel,

driving gray satanic mills and weaving sad stories.

And faceless masters oh, they pay me plenty

crumbs from their luncheon packs, harsh wine from bottles halk empty.

A stitch in time saves nine.

Said Cock Robin from the wall.

It's an early bird catches the worm.

Show a little pride before you fall.

So I flew to the south sun with birds of a feather

to drink in the warm nights and tell of fine weather.

A stitch in time saves nine.

Said Cock Robin from the wall.

It's an early bird catches the worm.

Show a little pride before you fall.

Listen all you young folk your lives on a timetable,

clocking on twenty-one fly while you're able.

A stitch in time saves nine.

Said Cock Robin from the wall.

It's an early bird catches the worm.

Show a little pride before you fall.

A stitch in time saves nine.

Said Cock Robin from the wall.

It's an early bird catches the worm.

Show a little pride before you fall.

best to not listen to this shit unless you want to be inducted into drugs and despair.

Lyrics typos: Said Cock Robin is "Sang Cock Robin" harsh wine from bottles halk empty is "harsh wine from bottles half empty." Last verse: It's an early bird catches the worm is "It's an early bird caught the worm."

I saw a link saying that Rebecca Black's 'Friday' is the worst song ever. I've sent a few people the link to this song. Doubt this would get 30m views, mind. I've actually got a 7" white vinyl of this, if anyone wants it.

Excellent visuals, Aqua! (You're really gonna get tired of reading that comment from me. Aw, such a tough life, isn't it? LOL!) Wow, female backing vocals on a Tull song? Very rare, indeed (apart from Maddy Prior's noteworthy participation on "Too Old To Rock 'n' Roll"). This is quite a wonderfully obscure track for those of us who can't affort to replace our stone age era Tull CDs with all of those spiffy remastered discs, including an array of bonus tracks from throughout the years. Thanks!!!

Thanks for posting this song which I never heard before. It is not quite as good as the other songs on this album, so I am not surprised it didn't make it. It is still good to hear a new song from that era.
