[00:00:00] Slit Skirts (Album Version) - Pete Townshend

[00:00:00] Written by：Pete Townsh

[00:00:09] I was just thirty four years old

[00:00:11] And I was still wandering in a haze

[00:00:16] I was wondering why everyone I met seemed like they were

[00:00:20] Lost in a maze

[00:00:24] I don't know why I thought I should have some kind of

[00:00:27] Divine right to the blues

[00:00:31] It's sympathy not tears people need when they're the

[00:00:34] Front page sad news

[00:00:38] The incense burned away

[00:00:42] And the stench began to rise

[00:00:46] And lovers now estranged

[00:00:48] Avoided catching each others' eyes

[00:00:53] And girls who lost their children

[00:00:55] Cursed the men who fit the coil

[00:00:58] And men not fit for marriage

[00:01:00] Took their refuge in the oil

[00:01:03] No one respects the flame

[00:01:06] Quite like the fool who's badly burned

[00:01:09] From all this you'd imagine

[00:01:11] That there must be something learned

[00:01:17] Slit skirts

[00:01:19] Jeanie never wears those slit skirts

[00:01:22] I don't ever wear no ripped shirts

[00:01:26] Can't pretend that growing older never hurts

[00:01:31] Knee pants

[00:01:33] Jeanie never wears no knee pants

[00:01:36] Have to be so drunk to try a new dance

[00:01:40] So afraid of every new romance

[00:01:45] Slit skirts slit skirt

[00:01:47] Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts slit skirt

[00:01:51] She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts slit skirt

[00:01:54] Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt

[00:02:00] Romance romance why aren't we thinking up romance

[00:02:05] Why can't we drink it up true heart romance

[00:02:09] Just need a brief new romance

[00:02:14] Let me tell you some more about myself

[00:02:17] You know I'm sitting at home just now

[00:02:21] The big events of the day I passed

[00:02:23] On the late tv shows have come around

[00:02:29] I'm number one in the home team

[00:02:32] But I still feel unfulfilled

[00:02:36] A silent voice in a broken heart complaining

[00:02:39] That I'm unskilled

[00:02:43] And I know that when she thinks of me

[00:02:47] She thinks of me as him

[00:02:50] But unlike me she don't work off her frustration in the gym

[00:02:58] Recriminations fester

[00:03:00] And the past can never change

[00:03:03] A woman's expectations run from both ends of the range

[00:03:08] Once she walked with untamed lovers' face between her legs

[00:03:13] Now he's cooled and stifled

[00:03:16] And it's she who has to beg

[00:03:21] Slit skirts

[00:03:23] Jeanie never wears those slit skirts

[00:03:26] And I don't ever wear no ripped shirts

[00:03:30] Can't pretend that growing older never hurts

[00:03:35] Knee pants

[00:03:37] Jeanie never wears no knee pants

[00:03:40] We have to be so drunk to try a new dance

[00:03:44] So afraid of every new romance

[00:03:49] Slit skirts slit skirt

[00:03:51] Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts slit skirt

[00:03:55] She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts slit skirt

[00:03:58] Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt

[00:04:03] Slit skirts slit skirt

[00:04:05] Jeanie isn't wearing those slit skirts slit skirt

[00:04:09] She wouldn't dare in those slit skirts slit skirt

[00:04:12] Wouldn't be seen dead in no slit skirt

[00:04:17] Romance romance

[00:04:19] Why aren't we thinking up romance

[00:04:23] Why can't we drink it up true heart romance

[00:04:27] Just need a brief new romance
