Jethro Tull - March The Mad Scientist

What would you like for Christmas?
A new polarity?
You're binary and desperate
To deal in high figures that lick us

With a hotter flame.
Look - each and every one the same.
In March the mad scientist
Brings a new change

In ever-dancing colors.
He rings it here and he rings it,
But no one stops to see
The change of fate and the fate of change

That slips into his pocket,
So he locks it
All away from view
And shares not what he thought he knew.

And April is summer-bound,
And February's blue.
And no one stops to see the colors.

What would you like for Christmas?

You're binary and desperate
To deal in high figures that lick us

With a hotter flame.
Look - each and every one the same.
In March the mad scientist

In ever-dancing colors.
He rings it here and he rings it,
But no one stops to see
The change of fate and the fate of change

That slips into his pocket,
So he locks it
All away from view
And shares not what he thought he knew.

And April is summer-bound,
And February's blue.
And no one stops to see the colors.
