The TRUE lyrics to EMA#12.12...Jethro Tull's "Teacher"

Well the dawn was coming,
heard him ringing on my bell.
He said, ``My name's the teacher,
that is what I call myself.
And I have a lesson
that I must impart 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 for nothing when the bird has flown.''

So I took a 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.

Pre...MUD

BTW...tryin' to trick ol' MUD, eh?

Indeed it is, an *error* has been committed. :o)

Not trying to kid ya -- or anyone else, actually -- just an honest goof-up on behalf of moi.
And just so you know, I'm saddened, deeply saddened. :o)

Fact is, if you refer to EMA 17:7 you'll find the *same* error, and, one I was aware of BTW.
Simply neglected to act on [it] right then & there as I should've.

Since you seem to know the correct name of the song I thought I'd recorded & mislabeled I won't expand on it any further.
Instead I'll go into my CD burner's data base where the .jwl files are stored & make the edit to #17:7 (ie, leave the CD the same & correct the jewel case titles) and then rerecord EMA 12:12 *&* edit the .jwl to accurately reflect what I'd intended.

You must understand since I sent you & Braveman the updated volumes up to EMA Volume 13, I've recorded 7 more volumes & now work on EMA Volume #21.

So you see, out of 28 hours of recordings I've goofed-up *twice*.
And to your credit you found one of the two, ya Nazi. :o)
{~thanks man, fix on the way... ;^) }

Say, anyone tell you if ya ever get fed up with architecture?

...you've a promising future as a proof listener. ;^)
