RELAY
The Who
- The following was transcribed from my copy of a compilation of The Whos'
lesser known works titled Hooligns The song is listed both on the cover
and inner sleeve without a The in the title and is credited, as are most
of The Whos' compositions, to Pete Townshend, released by Fabulous Music Ltd
in 1972.
You can hear it in the street,
See it in the dragging feet,
The word is getting out about control,
Spies they're come and gone,
The story travels on,
The only quiet place is inside your soul.
>From tree to tree,
>From you to me,
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway.
Ev'ry single dream
Is wrapped up in the scheme,
They all get carried on the relay.
Pass it on.
Someone disapproves
Of what you say or do,
I was asked to see what I could learn you;
Don't believe your eyes,
They're seeing only lies,
What is done in the first place don't concern you.
>From tree to tree ........ etc.
Relay, things are brewing,
Relay, something's doin'
Relay, it's a revolution,
Relay, relay,
Hand me down a solution!
Pass it on.
