Rate Guitar And Pen
Artist : Who Song : Guitar and pen (Townshend) You're alone above the street
somewhere Wondering how you'll ever count out
there You can walk, you can talk, you can fight
But inside you've got something to write In your
hand you hold your only friend Never spend your
guitar or your pen Your guitar or your pen Your
guitar or your pen Your guitar or your pen Your
guitar or your pen When you take up a pencil
and sharpen it up When you're kicking the fence
and still nothing will budge When the words are
immobile until you sit down Never feel they're
worth keeping, they're not easily found Then you
know in some strange, unexplainable way You must
really have something Jumping, thumping,
fighting, hiding away Important to say When
you sing through the verse and you end in a
scream And you swear and you curse 'cause the
rhyming ain't clean But it suddenly comes after
years of delay You pick up your guitar, you can
suddenly play When your fingers are bleeding and
the knuckles are white Then you can be sure, you
can open the door Get off of the floor tonight
You have something to write When you want to
complain, there's no one can stop you But when
your music proclaims, there's no one can top you
You are wearing you heart on your jumping feet
You've got a head start away from the street
But is that what you want, to be rich and be
gone? Could be there's just one thing left in
the end Your guitar and your pen When you sing
to your mum, and you hum and you croon And she
says that she'd like it "with more of a tune"
And you smash your guitar at the end of the bed
Then you stick it together and start writing
again And you know that it won't be too long
'til your back To bring her some money, she's
calling you "honey" Stashed in a bloody great
sack In your Cadillac You're alone You're
alone You're alone above the street somewhere
Wondering how you'll ever count out there You
can walk, you can talk, you can fight But inside
you've got something to write In your hand you
hold your only friend Never spend your guitar or
your pen Your guitar or your pen Your guitar or
your pen Your guitar or your pen Your guitar or
your pen Your guitar or your pen Your guitar or
your pen Your guitar or your pen Never spend
your guitar or your pen
