Sitting on the park bench --
              
              
                eyeing little girls with bad intent.
              
              
                Snot is running down his nose --
              
              
                greasy fingers smearing shabby clothes.
              
              
                Aqualung
              
              
                Drying in the cold sun --
              
              
                Watching as the frilly panties run.
              
              
                Aqualung
              
              
                Feeling like a dead duck --
              
              
                spitting out pieces of his broken luck.
              
              
                Whoa, aqualung
              
              
                 
              
              
                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 the bog
              
              
                and warms his feet.
              
              
                 
              
              
                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.
              
              
                Do you still remember
              
              
                The December's foggy freeze --
              
              
                when the ice that
              
              
                clings on to your beard was
              
              
                screaming agony.
              
              
                And you snatch your rattling last breaths
              
              
                with deep-sea-diver sounds,
              
              
                and the flowers bloom like
              
              
                madness in the spring.
