Lyric discussion by toolmusik 

This song is all about the way the city thrives and the people in it live. The word "jungle" that is used to represent the city is not new to Jethro Tull. There is a famous book called "The Jungle" which details the lives and work habits of certain people living in cities during the industrial age. I believe this song is almost a summery of this book.

P.S. "Jethro Tull" Is the name of the man who invented the Seed Drill.
