Jethro Tull Saturation Lyrics

They left me, leaving my house on fire,
Me running round got out through the window
While clinging to the skirts of fate
Was not my idea of fun I'll jump to it gladly

The town was filled with smoke and hate
Came to my senses just too late
To realize that all I ever owned
Was borrowed I thanked them for having shown
Me that nothing ever really belongs to anyone

They burned my books and they broke my car,
And gave the dog to a man who used him for breeding

They felled my trees and they tramped flowers
And threw The kitten into my new pool
The same things done to other men
Had made them run away from the city

This being the case, I joined them there
And breathing air spent
The night with these new friends
