letra de crew nights - jethro tull

tear it down in double quick time
to get the eighth truck shifted ’bout midnight
the locker rooms are empty but the [strobo tickers? ][strobe boats? ]
still spin with their pitching lights
and someone with a yellow p-ss
gives out precise directions as to where and when

and here am i with a drumstick,
while young girls set to rendezvous, and be recognized again
tomorrow is an off-day,
be in baltimore by thursday is the only law.
there’s a suite down at the hotel
reserved for making merry with connecting doors.
the lighting man’s already improvised a bar,
and printed invitations to the ball.
off duty cops line corridors wearing tull [two? ] t-shirts proudly
on the band’s […] wall

crew nights, no flashlights or folding knives,
best boots and road suits and nine lives.

feeling that it might be wrong to
temporarily belong to the p.a. man [men? ]
some angel from the midwest is regretting being
undressed with no suntan
his polaroid is snapping
the head carpenter is rapping on
the gates of dawn

sitting lonely with a warm beer
the girl with dental braces wishes that she hadn’t gone.

crew nights, no bar fights or [feeders? ] [veeders? ] wives
thin walls and late [blade? ] calls and nine lives.

[ken st-tzel writes: still no clue on the first line, but i think
“late calls” is definitely correct for the second line. it makes
sense from a stagehand terminology perspective. i know that it
sounds like there’s a “b” sound in there, but i think it’s just a
minor flaw in ian’s diction. (it’s really tough to sing clearly,
especially in rock music.)]

crew nights, no flashlights or folding knives,
best boots and road suits and nine lives.
