Jethro Tull - Rosa On The Factory Floor video free download

Taken from the 1993 album "Nightcap"

She moves with machinery for the fancy sports car trade.

Part of the industrial process: she sees that they stay made.

She works from early a.m.. they work her to the bone.

When I call her in the evening, she's too tired to lift the phone.

Damned if I'll wait for her, and I'll be damned if I don't.

Damned if I only see that rosa on the factory floor.

Signed on for the duration. they say she came from the east.

With her tool bag and her coveralls, to pay the rent at least.

She doesn't talk with workers on the rest of the line

And over in the canteen, she's alone most of the time.

Somewhere in her history is a lock without a key.

She doesn't trust the management--and she won't trust me.

We're two different animals. we live jungles apart.

She circles round her freedom and I circle round her heart.

I heard Anderson suffered some sort of injury to his vocal cords around the late 80s and you can hear a coarser sound in his voice on the next couple of albums starting with "Crest of a Knave". But he seemed to get better by the end of the 90s...

This one was recorded circa 1990, a year before the release of Catfish Rising, whose singles included Jump Start live, Night In The Wilderness and Jack-A-Lynn. I guess it did not appear before 1993.

This is great! Does anyone know if this was an outtake from any album? It sounds like it could be from Catfish Rising.
