No Lullaby

Jethro Tull

Keep your eyes open

And prick up your ears

Rehearse your loudest cry.

There's folk out there

Who would do you harm

So I'll sing you no lullaby.

There's a lock on the window;

There's a chain on the door:

A big dog in the hall.

But there's dragons and beasties

Out there in the night

To snatch you if you fall.



So come out fighting

With your rattle in hand.

Thrust and parry. Light

A match to catch the devil's eye.

Bring a cross of fire to the fight.



And let no sleep bring false relief

From the tension of the fray.

Come wake the dead with the scream of life.

Do battle with ghosts at play.



Gather your toys at the call-to-arms

And swing your big bear down.

Upon our necks when we come to set

You sleeping safe and sound.



It's as well we tell no lie

To chase the face that cries.

And little birds can't fly

So keep an open eye.

It's as well we tell no lie

So I'll sing you no lullaby.
