Lyrics Jethro Tull

Jethro Tull

Automotive Engineering

In the hands of science

The complete appliance.

We're moved to motor.

Do you fly a Spitfire?

Do you slide on a tea-tray?

Or walk on a short trip (Sundays).

Or drive come what may (enjoy).

Automotive science and engineering.

When big was better

And fast was chic,

The oil was cheaper

Now we're up the creek.

But the Japs are coming

And everyone's turbo'd

And carbon fiber

Is the way to go, go.

Down at the robot factory

Things are humming.

New radical suspension

No humans testing.

(Wind it up, wind it up.)

Take a trip

In your Freudian slip.

Doctor Ferdinand (Ferdie)

Has you in his grip.
