the who - bell boy (shepperton tour rehearsal / 1978) lyrics

[instrumental intro]

[verse 1]
a beach is a place where a man can feel
he’s the only soul in the world that’s real
but 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

[pre+chorus]
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 that gaff, where the doors we smashed?

[chorus]
bell boy
i gotta get running now
bell boy
keep my lip b+ttoned down
bell boy
carry the bl++dy baggage out
bell boy
always running at someone’s bleeding heel
you know how i feel
always running at someone’s heel
[bridge]
some nights, i still sleep on the beach
remember when stars were in reach
i wander in early to work
spend my day l!cking boots for my perks

[refrain]
a beach is a place where a man can feel
he’s the only soul in the world that’s real

[verse 3: jimmy]
but i see a face coming through the haze
i remember him from those crazy days
(crazy days, crazy days)
(crazy days, 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

[pre+chorus]
people often change, when i look in your eyes
you could learn a lot from a life like mine
the secret to me, it ain’t flown like a flag
i wear it behind this little badge what says
[chorus]
bell boy
i gotta get running now
bell boy
keep my lip b+ttoned down
bell boy
carry the bl++dy baggage out
bell boy
always running at someone’s heel
you know how i feel always running at someone’s heel
