Lick Your Fingers Clean (Steven Wilson Stereo Remix)

Lick Your Fingers Clean (Steven Wilson Stereo Remix) - Jethro Tull

I'll see you at the weighing in

When your lifes sum-totals made

And you set your

Wealth in godly deeds

Against the sins you've laid

So place your final burden

On your hard-pressed next of kin

Send the chamber

Pot back down the line

To be filled up again

Take your mind off your election

And try to get it straight

And don't pretend perfection

You'll be crucified too late

And hell say you really

Should make the deal

As he offers round the hat

We'll you'd better lick

Your fingers clean

I thank you all for that

And as you join the good ship earth

And you mingle with the dust

Be sure to leave your underpants

With someone you can trust

And the hard-headed social

Worker who bathes

His hands in blood

Will welcome you

With arms held high

And cover you with mud

And hell say you really

Should make the deal

As he offers round the hat

Well you'd better lick

Your fingers clean

I thank you all for that
