Bell Boy — текст песни (The Who)

(Keith`s theme)
The beach is a place where a man can feel

He`s the only soul in the world that`s real,

Well I see a face coming through the haze,

I remember him from those crazy days.



Ain`t you the guy who used to set the paces

Riding up in front of a hundred faces,

I don`t suppose you would remember me,

But I used to follow you back in `63.



I`ve got a good job

And I`m newly born.

You should see me dressed up in my uniform.

I work in hotel, all gilt and flash.

Remember the place where the doors were smashed?



Bell Boy! I got to keep running now.

Bell Boy! Keep my lip buttoned down.

Bell Boy! Carry this baggage out.

Bell Boy! Always running at someone`s heel.

You know how I feel, always running at someone`s heel.



Some nights I still sleep on the beach.

Remember when stars were in reach.

Then I wander in early to work,

Spend the day licking boots for my perks.



A beach is a place where a man can feel etc.



People often change

But when I look in your eyes,

You could learn a lot from

A job like mine.

The secret to me

Isn`t flown like a flag

I carry it behind

This little badge

What says...



Bell Boy!
