Teacher Jethro Tull

Well, the dawn was coming
Heard him ringing on my bell
He said, my name's the teacher
Oh, that is what I call myself
And I have a lesson
That I must impact to you
It's an old expression
But I must insist it's true

Jump up, look around
Find yourself some fun
No sense in sitting there
Hating everyone
No man's an island
And his castle isn't home
The nest is full of nothing
When the bird has flown

So, I took the journey
Threw my world into the sea
With me went the teacher
Who found fun instead of me

Hey man, what's the plan?
What was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand
Lying there in bed
I try to socialize
But I can't seem to find
What I was looking for
Got something on my mind

Then, the teacher told me
"It had been a lot of fun"
Thanked me for his ticket
And all that I had done

Hey man, what's the plan?
What was that you said?
Sun-tanned, drink in hand
Lying there in bed
I try to socialize
But I can't seem to find
What I was looking for
Got something on my mind
