Big Dipper - Jethro Tull

The mist rolls off the beaches, the train rolls into the station

Weekend happiness seekers, pent-up saturation

Well, we don’t mean anyone any harm, we weren’t on the Glasgow train

I see you at the Pleasure Beach, roller-coasting heroes

Big Dipper riding

We’ll give the local lads a hiding

If they keep us from the ladies

Hanging out in the penny arcades

Shaking up the Tower Ballroom

Throwing up in the bathroom

Landlady’s in the backroom

Oh well, I’m the Big Dipper it’s the weekend

Big Dipper it’s the weekend rage

Rich widowed landlady give me your spare front door key

If you’re thirty-nine or over, I’ll make love to you next Thursday

Oh well, I may stay over for a week or two, drop a postcard to my mum

I’ll see you on the waltzer, we’ll go big-dipping daily

Big Dipper riding

Oh, we’ll give the local lads a hiding

If they keep us from the ladies

Hanging out in the penny arcades

Shaking up the Tower Ballroom

Throwing up in the bathroom

Landlady’s in the backroom

Oh, well, I’m the Big Dipper it’s the weekend

Big Dipper it’s the weekend

Big Dipper it’s the weekend rage
