Batteries Not Included — текст песни (Jethro Tull)

Six oclock in the morning

Wake up by the bed

There sits a japanese toy

And I like it

See the name on the wrapping

Cant read yet but I know

Its made for me (lucky boy)

And I want it

Lights that flash, wheels that go round

Digital display

Fresh silicon chips to enjoy

And I need them

(wheres the batteries? )

Sitting silent and empty

Wish I could breathe life

In my new friend whos terribly still

And I like him

Just like me. prhaps hes hungry.

Six volts make him smile

And twelve volts would probably kill

How I like him

Daddy, wheres the batteries

I cant find my batteries

(theres no batteries)

Seven oclock in the morning

They find me by the bed

With my friend the japanese toy

I am with him

Mummy, daddy --- cant see you,

Hear you. batteries not

Included in this little boy

(wheres my batteries? )
