One White Duck/0=nothing At All Lyrics - Minstrel In The Gallery - Jethro Tull

Minstrel In The Gallery 

One White Duck / 0^{10} = Nothing At All 

There's a haze on the skyline, to wish me on my way. 

And there's a note on the telephone --- some roses on a 

tray. 

And the motorway's stretching right out to us all, 

as I pull on my old wings --- one white duck 

on your wall. 

Isn't it just too damn real? 

I'll catch a ride on your violin --- strung upon your bow. 

And I'll float on your melody --- sing your chorus soft 

and low. 

There's a picture-view postcard to say that I called. 

You can see from the fireplace, one white duck 

on your wall. 

Isn't it just too damn real?

So fly away Peter and fly away Paul --- from the 

finger-tip ledge of contentment. 

The long restless rustle of high-heeled boots calls. 

And I'm probably bound to deceive you after all. 

Something must be wrong with me and my brain --- 

if I'm so patently unrewarding. 

But my dreams are for dreaming and best left that 

way --- and my zero to your power of ten equals 

nothing at all. 

There's no double-lock defense; there's no chain on my door. 

I'm available for consultation, 

But remember your way in is also my way out, and 

love's four-letter word is no compensation.

Well, I'm the Black Ace dog-handler: I'm a waiter on 

skates --- so don't you jump to your foreskin conclusion. 

Because I'm up to my deaf ears in cold breakfast trays --- 

to be cleared before I can dine on your sweet Sunday 

lunch confusion.
