No Lullaby (2003 Remaster) - Jethro Tull

Keep your eyes open and prick up your ears

Rehearse your loudest cry

Theres folk out there who would do you harm

So I'll sing you no lullaby

Theres a lock on the window theres a chain on the door

On the door

A big dog in the hall

But theres 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 devils 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

Lullaby

Lullaby

Lullaby

Lullaby

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

Lullaby

Lullaby

Keep your eyes open and prick up your ears

Rehearse your loudest cry

Theres folk out there who would do you harm

So I'll sing you no lullaby

Theres a lock on the window theres a chain on the door

A big dog in the hall

But theres 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 devils 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
