Feeling alone, the army's up the road
Salvation a la mode and a cup of tea
Aqualung my friend don't you start away uneasy
You poor old sod, you see it's only me
Sun streaking cold, an old man wandering lonely
Taking time, the only way he knows
Leg hurting bad as he bends to pick a dog end
He goes down to a bog and warms his feet

Surprisingly for my age... I was a little late in being a Tull fan.
It wasn't until the album AQUALUNG came out w/ the FM airplay that I 1st listened in.
(Tull already had 3 albums out prior to Aqualung coming out in 1971.)
Neat factoid... Tony Iommi of Black Sabbath was the guitarist for a year in '68!
Lot of great tracks in that album...
But the title track got my attention first.
Aqualung...

Hmmm, what is the most OFTEN said oaths that one says after surviving a wicked hangover...
"I'M GOING TO STOP DRINKING... " followed by the phrase (for how long?) " ... FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE..."
added by... " SO HELP ME GOD" finishing with... "AND THIS TIME, I MEAN IT!!!"
I forget the name of the comedian who said it... but it's so funny & spot on.
Sorry for your pain... but you'll survive. AND file that experience for another day... hoping not to lather-rinse-repeat again.

I throwing a Baked Potato your way, Gus, just for mentioning Max from LEHIGH (Nice! AND I hope he DOES come through on the podium next March!)
(... but, didn't George Wendt passed away two weeks ago?!?)
