Jethro Tull - Tundra


Short Arctic desert day --- 
  and someone left their snow-shoes in the tundra. 
Look around every which way 
  but I can't see just where the footprints go. 
Is it a casual disappearance? --- 
  Plucked from the middle atmosphere 
  like straw wind-blown. 
No speck on the horizon --- 
  no simple message scrawled 
  upon the snow. 

Unearthly visitation --- 
  someone left their snow-shoes in the tundra. 
Hungry buzzard flier 
  circling round and round 
  rattling death's tambourine. 

Have to run it down the cold wire --- 
  late insertion in tomorrow's lost and found. 
Should I spread out searching? 
  But I'm a little thin upon the ground. 

So I raise my lips to coax 
  the last drop of brandy from the bottle. 
Rest my feet and contemplate 
  the mystery that's haunting 
  this Siberian space. 

Show-shoes they bind me down --- 
  I'm just one more parasite of the surface layer. 
I begin to get the feeling 
  I've been on this stage before 
  and I'm the only player. 

One more Arctic desert day --- 
  another set of shoes out in the tundra snow. 
I make my fade to white-out 
  and you can't see me where my footprints go.
