One of these prog characters listed above is featured in a fairly well known classic prog song the question is which one best fits the lesser  "crime" of watching through the railings as they play ?  how well do you know your prog people ?   Tongue

silly poll ..  perfectly useless and just for fun

a lesser crime? He's a child molester! That's why he's stalking the kids at the playground!

the more serious crime comes later  after hes done watching through the railings ...  this is creeping me out   lets not go too far into this topic  ...   one  question was he ever convicted of child molestation or are we just presuming he  is  a molester  ..  I mean its hard to know whats going on in his mind,   though the watching pretty panties line kinda gives us a clue ...  ewwwww  ..  great song  perhaps a little controversial  even confronting  Smile

there's no question about it, he's a child molester, it's not just a conviction, the whole song is about how he is a child molester, and you can't call watching little kids a "lesser crime" if he intends to molest the cross-eyed one later onAngry

Not that this makes Aqualung's actions any less repulsive, but wasn't cross-eyed Mary supposed to be a 12- year old prostitute?  
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I thought that song was a metaphor for the Catholic Church...Confused
 
Shows how much of a Tull fan I am...
 
Edit: I thought the same thing about Lady Madonna by the Beatles.

Novalis,

Side A is about Aqualung, Side B is the religion side.

Was Cross-Eyed Mary a prostitute? I don't know, but I'm not too surprised
