Lyrics
We're going to uh, play Tommy for you now
I hope you to get
On this particular tour
We're counting up fairly inexpensive recording system with us
And we're recording all our shows
And we've recorded them all up to now
And we're recording tonight's this time
And uh, we're hoping that maybe by the end of the tour
We'll have enough music on tape
We're recording in stereo
And in a very simple way though
We got mic over there and a mic over there
And uh, in order to enhance the sound
What we've done is we put John Entwistle on the bass
Roger Daltrey on the voice there
Keith Moon on the drums
And yours truly on the guitar
And for, for all you know, boy can we brag
For, for all you know actually
Or for all we know
Until we actually get to listening to all the sounds
There might be a few tracks or a few solos or something
We're gonna segment it all down and cut it all up
On our next album which'll be out in January
Which will be The Who Live
Maybe some of it will be recorded in this very garbage can
Throw on the contract to us
Yes sign on the dotted line you lot
Anyway we like, we like to begin
If there's anything we miss in Tommy which you could particulary dig
I'm sorry there's four numbers we miss actually
Which are probably, if you really missed them
Then you'll miss em
But I ain't gonna tell you what they are in case you don't miss em
Then you won't know the difference
We start of with the overture
Captain Walker didn't come home
His unborn child will never know him
Believe him missing with a number of men
Don't expect to see him again
Don't expect to see him again
