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 on

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...
 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 |
