Jethro Tull — My God/Cross Eyed Mary Live at Madison Square Garden

[My God] People, what have you done? Locked Him in His golden cage, golden cage Made Him bend to your religion Him—resurrected from the grave, from the grave He is the god of nothing If that's all that you can see You are the god of everything He's inside you and me So lean upon Him gently And don't call on Him to save You from your social graces And the sins you used to waive, you used to waive The bloody Church of England In chains of history Requests your earthly presence At the vicarage for tea And the graven image you-know-who With His plastic crucifix (he's got him fixed) Confuses me as to who and where and why As to how he gets his kicks, he gets his kicks Confessing to the endless sin The endless whining sounds You'll be praying 'til next Thursday To all the gods that you can count [Cross-Eyed Mary] Who would be a poor man, a beggar-man, a thief If he had a rich man in his hand And who would steal the candy From a laughing baby's mouth If he could take it from the money man Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again She signs no contract But she always plays the game She dines in Hampstead village On expense accounted gruel And the jack-knife barber drops her off at school Laughing in the playground, gets no kicks from little boys: Would rather make it with a letching grey Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung Who watches through the railings as they play Cross-eyed Mary finds it hard to get along She's a poor man's rich girl And she'll do it for a song She's a rich man stealer But her favour's good and strong: She's the Robin Hood of Highgate Helps the poor man get along Laughing in the playground, gets no kicks from little boys: Would rather make it with a letching grey Or maybe her attention is drawn by Aqualung Who watches through the railings as they play Cross-eyed Mary goes jumping in again She signs no contract But she always plays the game She dines in Hampstead village On expense accounted gruel And the jack-knife barber drops her off at school Cross-eyed Mary Mary Cross-eyed Mary
