jethro tull - minstrel in the gallery (edited version) lyrics
the minstrel in the gallery
looked down upon the smiling faces
he met the gazes observed the sp-ces
between the old men’s cackle
he brewed a song of love and hatred
oblique suggestions and he waited
he polarized the pumpkin-eaters
static-humming panel-beaters
freshly day-glow’d factory cheaters
(salaried and collar-scrubbing)
he t-tillated men-of-action
belly warming, hands still rubbing
on the parts they never mention
he pacified the nappy-suffering, infant-bleating
one-line jokers, t.v. doc-mentary makers
(overfed and undertakers)
sunday paper backgammon players
family-scarred and women-haters
then he called the band down to the stage
and he looked at all the friends he’d made
the minstrel in the gallery
looked down on the rabbit-run
and threw away his looking-gl-ss –
saw his face in everyone
