The Real Me

I went back to the doctor
To get another shrink.
I sit and tell him about my weekend,
But he never betrays what he thinks.

Can you see the real me, doctor?

I went back to my mother
I said, "I'm crazy ma, help me."
She said, "I know how it feels son,
'Cause it runs in the family."

Can you see the real me, mother?

The cracks between the paving stones
Look like rivers of flowing veins.
Strange people who know me
Peeping from behind every window pane.
The girl I used to love
Lives in this yellow house.
Yesterday she passed me by,
She doesn't want to know me now.

Can you see the real me, can you?

I ended up with the preacher,
Full of lies and hate,
I seemed to scare him a little
So he showed me to the golden gate.

Can you see the real me preacher?
Can you see the real me doctor?
Can you see the real me mother?
Can you see the real me?

I had to give kudos to whoever put on Quadrophenia on Saturday, more kudos for posting one of the most underrated Who songs ever written.

I think it was in '89. If Spitfire's lurking, I'm sure she'd know. That version sucked because they changed the lyrics and the bass player couldn't play a lead. Another reason why Entwistle is a god.

You can find no better example of Entwistle's superior playing on bass than in this song

Cap'n - very close! It was on WASP's album The Headless Children, released in 1988. One of my college roommates was a huge WASP fan, so I heard their version a lot. I agree with you, their version sucks compared to The Who.

Great choice NJD . I prefer this Opera over Tommy.
Townsend is a wordsmith extraordinaire, and no one can match the OX....

Let me add one of my fave OX tunes...

Too Late the Hero

Too late the hero
It all comes to zero
And I, I wish I could stop
And start it again.

It's the end of my movie
The bad guys beat me easy
And I, I wish I could stop
And start it again.

It's easy to live in your imagination
If you can't control the situation
You just cut and start it again
It's easy to live in your imagination
You have to make an alteration
You just cut and start it again.

How I wish I could live on the silver screen
Like the stars in the movie magazines
With a happy ending as the final scene.

Too late the hero
It all comes to zero
And I, I wish I could stop
And start it again.

It's the end of my movie
The bad guys beat me easy
And I, I wish I could stop
And start it again.

It's easy, the villains always wear black
They see your guns and turn back
It only happens in the movies
It's easy, the heroes always wear white
The ladies fall off the sight
It only happens in the movies.

As the Viking ship drifts off to the sea
The black sail bursts into fire
I turn to kiss the princess
I have to pacify her
The arrows fall
The sky is red
The music gets higher and higher.

The battle's done
I'm on my way home
A hero's welcome on the shore
Single handed, all by myself
I've just won the war
It was nothing, really.

Entwistle tunes kick ass!!! Here's great one-two combo from Smash Your Head Against the Wall...They flow togehter on the album.

You're Mine

Who'd drown a cat
Who'd do a thing like that
If you would, you're mine.

Who'd whip a horse
A lost soul of course
Those who work are mine.

They're mine (mine), they're mine (mine).
They're mine (mine , they're mine (mine).

Who'd rob an old woman,
Take her pension from her bag
Those who, steal are mine.

Who'd take a life
Being friend, foe, wife
Those who kill are mine.

They're mine (mine), they're mine (mine).
They're mine (mine), they're mine (mine).

Get behind me Satan
The devil takes all those that sin
Deliver us from evil
The devil takes all those that sin.

Who'd shoot a rabbit
A very nasty habit
Those who hunt are mine.

Who'd go to war
Like countless times before
Those who war are mine.

They're mine (mine), they're mine (mine).
They're mine (mine), they're mine (mine).

Get behind me Satan
The devil takes all those that sin
Deliver us from evil
The devil takes all those that sin.

Everybody's mine
At sometime
Everybody's mine

You'll enjoy your stay
'Til you're all reborn some day
Until you are, you're mine

You're mine (mine) , you're mine (mine).
You're mine (mine), you're mine (mine).

Get behind me Satan
The devil takes all those that sin
Deliver us from evil
The devil takes all those that sin.

Get behind me Satan
The devil takes all those that sin
Deliver us from evil
The devil takes all those that sin.

Get behind me Satan
The devil takes all those that sin
Deliver us from evil
The devil takes all those that sin.

No. 29
(External Youth)

Just give me one year of your life my friend
And I'll make you look twenty years younger
I've done it for others I can do it for you
New life, new body, and new friends too
I can make you look as you've never felt before.

Here's a very famous film star
Who took a one year course of my treatment
Ten inches off the waist
New hair stuck on with paste
And he acts as well as he ever did before.

You'll be as virile as ever
Unaffected by the weather
Old age will seem to pass you by
And you won't detect a sign, of old Father Time
Over sixty but you'll look like thirty-four.

A very prominent politician
In danger of losing his position
A devastating smile
Looked real up to a mile
And he lies as well as he ever did before.

This very well known pop singer
Had ceased to be a swinger
New hair, nose, teeth, and eyes
Touch of padding round the flies
And he sings as well as he ever did before.

You'll be as virile as ever
Unaffected by the weather
Old age will seem to pass you by
And you won't detect a sign, of old Father Time
Over sixty but you'll look like thirty-four.
