The Who - Behind Blue Eyes

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BfuWXRZe9yA&feature=related

No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man
To be the sad man, behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like, to be hated
To be fated, to telling only lies

But my dreams they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance, that's never free

No one knows what it's like, to feel these feelings
Like I do, and I blame you
No one bites back as hard, on their anger
None of my pain or woe, can show through

But my dreams, they aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance, that's never free

When my fist clenches, crack it open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me some bad news
Before I laugh and act like a fool

And if I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And if I shiver, please give me your blanket
Keep me warm, let me wear your coat

No one knows what it's like, to be the bad man
To be the sad man, behind blue eyes

THE WHO - See Me, Feel Me - Listening to You

See me

Feel me

Touch me

Heal me

(4x)

Listening to you

I get the music

Casing at you

I get the heat

Following you

I climb the mountain

I get excitement at your feet

Right behind you

I see the millions

On you

I see the glory

From you

I get opinions

From you

I get the story

(3x)

The Who - Wont Get Fooled Again

The Who - Wont Get Fooled Again




We'll be fighting in the streets

With our children at our feet

And the morals that they worship will be gone

And the men who spurred us on

Sit in judgment of all wrong

They decide and the shotgun sings the song

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

And I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

Change it had to come

We knew it all along

We were liberated from the fall that's all

But the world looks just the same

And history ain't changed

'Cause the banners, they all flown in the last war

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

And I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

No, no!

I'll move myself and my family aside

If we happen to be left half alive

I'll get all my papers and smile at the sky

For I know that the hypnotized never lie

Do ya?

There's nothing in the street

Looks any different to me

And the slogans are replaced, by-the-bye

And the parting on the left

Is now the parting on the right

And the beards have all grown longer overnight

I'll tip my hat to the new constitution

Take a bow for the new revolution

Smile and grin at the change all around me

Pick up my guitar and play

Just like yesterday

Then I'll get on my knees and pray

We don't get fooled again

Don't get fooled again

No, no!

Yeah!

Meet the new boss

Same as the old boss

The Who - Pinball Wizard

 Pete Townshend

Pinball Wizard

Ever since I was a young boy

I've played the silver ball

From Soho down to Brighton

I must have played them all

But I ain't seen nothing like him

In any amusement hall

That deaf, dumb and blind kid

Sure plays a mean pinball

He stands like a statue

Becomes part of the machine

Feeling all the bumpers

Always playing clean

Plays by intuition

The digit counters fall

That deaf, dumb and blind kid

Sure plays a mean pinball

He's a pinball wizard

There has to be a twist

A pinball wizard

Got such a supple wrist

How do you think he does it?

I don't know

What makes him so good?

Ain't got no distractions

Can't hear no buzzers and bells

Don't see no lights a-flashin

Plays by sense of smell

Always gets the replay

Never see him fall

That deaf, dumb, and blind kid

Sure plays a mean pinball

I thought I was

The bally table king

But I just handed

My pinball crown to him

He put up my favorite table

He can beat my best

His disciples lead him in

And he just does the rest

He's got crazy flipper fingers

Never see him fall

That deaf, dumb and blind kid

Sure plays a mean pinball

The Who with Eric Clapton - Eyesight to the blind

Eyesight To The Blind

The Hawker

You talk about your woman

I wish you could see mine,

You talk about your woman

I wish you could see mine,

Every time she starts to lovin'

She brings eyesight to the blind.

You know her daddy gave her magic

I can tell by the way she walks.

You know her daddy gave her magic

I can tell by the way she walks.

Everytime we start shakin'

The dumb begin to talk.

She's got the power to heal you never fear

She's got the power to heal you never fear

Just a word from her lips

And the deaf begin to hear.

Man in a Purple Dress 2007 - The Who

A Man In A Purple Dress

How dare you wear robes and reside

How dare you cover your head to hide

Your face from God

How dare you smile from behind your beard

To hide the fact that your hearts are feared

And wave your rod

How dare you be the one to assess

Me in this godforsaken mess

You, a man in a purple dress

A man in a purple dress

When you place your frown

Between my God and prayer

However grand your crown

Or dignified your hair

Men above men all prats

In your high hats

You priest, you mullah so high

You pope, you wise rabbi

You're invisible to me

Like vapor from the sea

I lovingly mock you noble lords

We all dress up to grand awards

I do that as well

I dare condemn your fashion sense

At least you're not astride the fence

That wouldn't sell

But I will deliver this address

Your souls conditioned don't impress

You, a man in a purple dress

A man in a purple dress

The Who - Success Story

Friday night, I'm on my way home
They oughta make work a crime
I'm home for the weekend
I'm gonna make the most of my time
There's a rock and roll singer on the television
Giving up his music, gonna take up religion
Deserted rock and roll
To try to save his soul

Saturday night, gotta gig with the band
Playing the electric guitar
Someday I'm gonna make it
Gonna be a super-duper-star
Get a flashy car
And a house for my Ma
The big break better happen soon
'Cause I'm pushing twenty-one

Just like Cinderella
When she couldn't go to the ball
A voice said, "I'm your fairy manager
You shall play the Carnegie Hall"
I gotta give up my day job
To become a heartthrob
I may go far if I smash my guitar

Away for the weekend
I've gotta play some one-night stands
Six for the tax man, and one for the band
Back in the studio to make our latest number one
Take two-hundred-and-seventy-six
You know, this used to be fun

Monday morning, I just got home
Six and the birds are singing
I need a drink and my clothes are wet
Ooh, and my ears are still ringing
There's a rock and roll singer boppin' on the TV
He used to be a preacher, but now he sings in a major key
Amended his decision to the new religion

Baba O'Riley - The Who

Baba O' Riley

Pete Townshend

Baba O' Riley

Out here in the fields

I fight for my meals

I get my back into my living

I don't need to fight

To prove I'm right

I don't need to be forgiven

Don't cry

Don't raise your eye

It's only teenage wasteland

Sally, take my hand

Travel south crossland

Put out the fire

Don't look past my shoulder

The exodus is here

The happy ones are near

Let's get together

Before we get much older

Teenage wasteland

It's just a teenage wasteland

Teenage wasteland

Oh, oh

Teenage wasteland

They're all wasted!

The Who - My Generation

My Generation

Pete Townshend

My Generation

People try to put us down (talkin' bout' my generation)

Just because we get around (talkin' bout' my generation)

Things they do look awful c c cold (talkin' bout' my generation)

Hope I die before I get old (talkin bout my generation)

Chorus

My Generation, It's My Generation baby

Why don't you all fade away (talkin bout my generation)

Just talkin 'bout my generation (talkin bout my generation)

Chorus

Why don't you all fade away (talkin bout my generation)

And don't try to dig what we all say (talkin bout my generation)

Just talkin bout my generation (talkin bout my generation)

Chorus

My, My, My, My Generation

Chorus

Talking 'bout my generation (my generation)
