Pete Townshend - Evolution слова песни
Well, once I was a stone, many years agoInto a pool was thrown, many years agoTime went by and the pool ran dryExcavated was I, and tempered and beat in the fiery heatBy the hand of a man, whose name was Dan, Dan the blacksmithWell once I was a sword, many years agoAnd my blade was broad, many years agoWore it with pride, and into battle I`d ride, on a warrior sideAnd cut my tail, their was loss of my tailand soon did rust ,corrode to dust, oh myWell once I was a daisy, many years agoIn pastures green and lazy, many years agoBut I was et by a goat who fell in a moatAnd forgetting to float he sunk like a lead and stayed until deadAnd was relieved to find just how kind it all wasWell once I was a grub, many years agoAnd I lived among that mud , many years agoBut I`m a reckless mood, and I gave it a CooThat was it with a prune, and when the good Lord was doneI walked with the sun, I shed my skinsAnd tried my wings and flew awayWell, once I was a bullfrog, had to struggle for survivalAnd once I was a carp and lived in waters on the meadowAnd once I was a mynah bird, quoting verses from the BibleI said pretty boy, pretty boy, Saint Luke(Guitar solo)Well once I was a mule, many years agoand my master treat me cruel, many years agoBy by was sick, so I moved to a kick, So I took out a stick , laid it back across my backTo an almighty crack to my dismayI cast away into the blueThen I was born a human baby, many years agoI remember I was born unto a lady, many years agoAll our hopes were piled on the back of a childWho turned out to be wild, sent the devil a prayerCaused the parson to swear so I took my leaveTo lie and thieve, on my way to jailWell, I`ve been a tinker, tailor, soldier, sailorKnown good times and disasterBut now I have a teacher and my teacher has a masterAnd the master is perfection, so he`ll help us get there fasterDon`t need no proof, `cause that`s the truth, and I`ll drink to that!
