English Boy - Pete Townshend[00:00:00]
Hello Ruth Streeting[00:00:07]
Here once again with Streeting's Street[00:00:08]
Where you get the word straight from the street[00:00:10]
This is the show that dishes the dirt on the dirt[00:00:12]
Strictly no rock star b******t on my show[00:00:14]
I don't review pop anymore[00:00:17]
I talk about anything I like or anything I hate[00:00:18]
Talking of which remember[00:00:21]
That clapped out 60's hell raiser Ray High[00:00:22]
Rumor has it the sad old lush can't do it anymore[00:00:25]
I mean make records[00:00:29]
I'm an English boy I was brought up right[00:00:30]
Hold me down and I will bite[00:00:35]
I know no fear I serve with joy[00:00:40]
I'm proud to be here an English boy[00:00:45]
I feel like a stray dog[00:00:50]
Blurred like a movie[00:00:53]
You say you've come to arrest me[00:00:55]
But you're just trying to test me[00:00:58]
I'm bored with your prejudice[00:01:00]
Spreading like a fever[00:01:03]
Your promises to train me[00:01:06]
Are just attempts to restrain me[00:01:08]
I'm an English boy precisely made[00:01:10]
You can pin me down I am not afraid[00:01:16]
I show no fear I will serve with joy[00:01:21]
I'm proud to be here an English boy[00:01:26]
Use me like a headline[00:01:31]
Cut pieces to pieces[00:01:33]
I'm black on the tube line[00:01:36]
Red on the touch line[00:01:39]
Freezing up the future[00:01:41]
Stopping every stopwatch[00:01:44]
You say we're moving like an oil slick[00:01:46]
Thicker than a house brick[00:01:49]
I'm an English boy I was brought up right[00:01:51]
If you raise your dress then I will bite[00:01:56]
My voice is clear I got perfect poise[00:02:01]
Good to be down here with other English boys[00:02:06]
And I don't know where I am now[00:02:12]
Or where I'm gonna go[00:02:14]
I just keep going 'round and 'round on the circle line[00:02:16]
Like some demented kind a commuta[00:02:18]
Trying to avoid paying for my ticket[00:02:20]
I'm a lost soul[00:02:23]
I read about myself in the newspapers[00:02:25]
I'm a pig I'm a thug[00:02:27]
I've got nowhere to go with down[00:02:29]
I hear his manager Rastus Knight[00:02:33]
Is pulling what's left of his hair out[00:02:34]
The only thing Ray's writing these days[00:02:36]
Are large checks to his booze merchants[00:02:38]
He's a serious recluse now[00:02:40]
Hasn't seen daylight or another woman[00:02:41]
Since his old lady walked out two years ago[00:02:43]
Poor little sausage brooding in that[00:02:45]
Twenty two room glass mansion[00:02:47]
Life's a b**ch and so am I[00:02:49]
Feel like I'm kicking at a dead man[00:02:52]
Kicking in the chorus[00:02:54]
I'm broken by hatred[00:02:57]
While politicians just ignore us[00:02:59]
You never gave me any value[00:03:02]
You didn't give me any reason[00:03:04]
There's no tools and no toys[00:03:07]
For any English boys[00:03:09]
I'm an English boy I was brought up right[00:03:12]
Hold me down and I will bite[00:03:17]
I know no fear I will serve with joy[00:03:22]
I'm proud to be here an English boy yeah[00:03:27]
I'm an English boy yeah[00:03:42]
I'm an English boy[00:03:48]
I'm an English boy[00:03:52]
No tools no toys for any English boy[00:03:57]
English boy English boy[00:04:03]
English boy[00:04:13]
