《English Boy》歌词

[00:00:00] English Boy - Pete Townshend

[00:00:07] Hello Ruth Streeting

[00:00:08] Here once again with Streeting's Street

[00:00:10] Where you get the word straight from the street

[00:00:12] This is the show that dishes the dirt on the dirt

[00:00:14] Strictly no rock star b******t on my show

[00:00:17] I don't review pop anymore

[00:00:18] I talk about anything I like or anything I hate

[00:00:21] Talking of which remember

[00:00:22] That clapped out 60's hell raiser Ray High

[00:00:25] Rumor has it the sad old lush can't do it anymore

[00:00:29] I mean make records

[00:00:30] I'm an English boy I was brought up right

[00:00:35] Hold me down and I will bite

[00:00:40] I know no fear I serve with joy

[00:00:45] I'm proud to be here an English boy

[00:00:50] I feel like a stray dog

[00:00:53] Blurred like a movie

[00:00:55] You say you've come to arrest me

[00:00:58] But you're just trying to test me

[00:01:00] I'm bored with your prejudice

[00:01:03] Spreading like a fever

[00:01:06] Your promises to train me

[00:01:08] Are just attempts to restrain me

[00:01:10] I'm an English boy precisely made

[00:01:16] You can pin me down I am not afraid

[00:01:21] I show no fear I will serve with joy

[00:01:26] I'm proud to be here an English boy

[00:01:31] Use me like a headline

[00:01:33] Cut pieces to pieces

[00:01:36] I'm black on the tube line

[00:01:39] Red on the touch line

[00:01:41] Freezing up the future

[00:01:44] Stopping every stopwatch

[00:01:46] You say we're moving like an oil slick

[00:01:49] Thicker than a house brick

[00:01:51] I'm an English boy I was brought up right

[00:01:56] If you raise your dress then I will bite

[00:02:01] My voice is clear I got perfect poise

[00:02:06] Good to be down here with other English boys

[00:02:12] And I don't know where I am now

[00:02:14] Or where I'm gonna go

[00:02:16] I just keep going 'round and 'round on the circle line

[00:02:18] Like some demented kind a commuta

[00:02:20] Trying to avoid paying for my ticket

[00:02:23] I'm a lost soul

[00:02:25] I read about myself in the newspapers

[00:02:27] I'm a pig I'm a thug

[00:02:29] I've got nowhere to go with down

[00:02:33] I hear his manager Rastus Knight

[00:02:34] Is pulling what's left of his hair out

[00:02:36] The only thing Ray's writing these days

[00:02:38] Are large checks to his booze merchants

[00:02:40] He's a serious recluse now

[00:02:41] Hasn't seen daylight or another woman

[00:02:43] Since his old lady walked out two years ago

[00:02:45] Poor little sausage brooding in that

[00:02:47] Twenty two room glass mansion

[00:02:49] Life's a b**ch and so am I

[00:02:52] Feel like I'm kicking at a dead man

[00:02:54] Kicking in the chorus

[00:02:57] I'm broken by hatred

[00:02:59] While politicians just ignore us

[00:03:02] You never gave me any value

[00:03:04] You didn't give me any reason

[00:03:07] There's no tools and no toys

[00:03:09] For any English boys

[00:03:12] I'm an English boy I was brought up right

[00:03:17] Hold me down and I will bite

[00:03:22] I know no fear I will serve with joy

[00:03:27] I'm proud to be here an English boy yeah

[00:03:42] I'm an English boy yeah

[00:03:48] I'm an English boy

[00:03:52] I'm an English boy

[00:03:57] No tools no toys for any English boy

[00:04:03] English boy English boy

[00:04:13] English boy
