Ian Anderson - Toad in the hole

Tekst :

I walk along the strand
to catch the late ride home.
Shuttle through the evening gloom
knowing I forgot to phone.
The back door s open.
There s a chill blowing in.
Take your warm hands off me.
Let the night begin.
Shush your mouth.
Listen to me.
I won t say nothing --
Just let me be your
Toad in the Hole.
Kicking through the wet leaves lying
all along the station road.
Past tired graffitti wailing,
raw emotion to unload.
There s coal in the fireplace
and money in the bank too.
Deep-pile carpets, tinsel wallpaper.
Still got the back room to do.
Don t be late.
Got a day s work behind me.
Feel a little devastated
but my nights are assigned
to you.
No tom-cat creeping, now
could ever be so bold
to hang around our place tonight
when I come in from the cold.
There s a straight-six in the garage
and some fine wine to cool.
Labour-savers in the kitchen,
room in the garden for a pool.
Shush your mouth.
Let imagination run
here in bed-sit heaven
where all the best wishing s done
to warm Toad in the Hole.

    I want it all

    Like to believe there s something more out there
    Like to believe that I m not the only one
    Who looks around and feels overcome
    So much to do and too many choices
    Which one will be the road that becomes my own?
    Should I...

    The thought of living

    The thought of living, one idea that comes to mind
    the thought of living, gaining bakc the eyes to see
    and I thought of your eyes
    I thought of your eyes
    and I though of your eyes, the thought of living
    I ve come so...

    Wo ist deine liebe

    Am Anfang ist es wunderschön und Du glaubst,
    es wird ewig weitergeh n.
    Am Anfang ist es wunderbar alles klar,
    wir sind ein geniales Paar.

    Es gibt nichts zu streiten - es gibt nichts zu diskutier n
    Das sind die besten Zeiten - dann...

    Suicide

    Sinking I am sinking
    Falling I am falling
    Drowning I am drowning
    Floating in mid air

    It s just dragging me down
    Faster always faster
    There is no way out
    There is no way out
    No way out

    I m caught in this world pool
    Spinning I am spinning
    I have seen it all
    I have seen it all
    Seen it all
    ...

    Lass mich wie ich bin

    Warum sollt´ ich mich verstellen
    und von Müh´n umgeben
    wenn ich doch ganz sicher weiß
    was ich will vom leben

    Ich will nicht anders sein
    sieh es doch endlich ein
    und was muss noch gescheh´n
    Willst du nicht versteh´n

    Lass mich doch so wie ich bin
    Frag nicht nach´m Sinn...
