What does the word 'spurt' in this Jethro Tull song mean? #1 (permalink) Mon Jan 03, 2005 11:57 am   What does the word 'spurt' in this Jethro Tull song mean?
 

Hello Torsten/Alan:

I once went to a rock concert, the band was Jethro Tull visiting my country. I had the opportunity to ask the members of the band for their autographs and one of them wrote "Spurt" and then signed below.
What does this word exactly mean like a standalone expression ?

Thank you very much for this forum and all your help...!!!!

I only know this word as both a noun and verb meaning rush forward or out.
