The Who - Cry If You Want слова песни
Once it was just innocenceBrash ideas and insolenceBut you will never get awayWith the things you say today But you can try if you want Dont` you get embarrassed when you read the precious things you saidMany many years ago when life appeared rosy redNo one ever shared your bedNothing ever filled your headExcept yourself and little TedAnd scary dreams that you were dead.Don`t you want to hide your faceWhen going through your teenage booksAnd read the kind of crap you wroteAbout "Ban the Bomb" and city crooksThink about how long it tookTo get over that sudden "Yuk"When in the mirror you would lookWell now my son you`re well in stook Cry if you want Cry if you want Didn`t you writh in anger when you saw the man in his big carDidn`t you drive a banger and a gallon didn`t get you farShould have been a famous starBut that ain`t what you really areYou could shout your last harrahWhile they are propping up the barMaybe things were better thenBefore you led a promised lifeRash commitements and heavy raps and left wing spiel all compromisedYou fall in love with other`s wivesDrive `em nuts with empty liesAngry `cos you lost the prizeForgot the color of their eyes. Cry if you want Cry if you wnat Let your tears flow Let your past go Don`t you get embarrassed when you think about the way you wereYesterday the day before when you were young with much to learnAren`t you glad it`s your last termNo more acting lowly wormYou can make the suckers squirmWhen you tell them how much you earnDon`t you feel ashamed at all the bitterness you keep insideDoes your ego save your face "I had a go - I really tried"Now you know your leaders liedDoes it stop you acting snideOr are you still a boy that criedTears now surely long since dried. Cry if you want Cry if you want
