Uniforms lyrics

Artist  : Pete Townshend 
Song : Uniforms



 Send "Uniforms" Ringtone to your Cell 

 I don't matter you don't matter

Neither does
this mindless clatter

It don't matter where
you're from

What matters is your
uniform



Wear your braces round your
seat

Doctor Martens on your feet

Keep
your barnet very neat

For credibility on
street



We are marching as to war

We
won't be obscure no more

In uniform - In
uniform



I am really living life inside a
jar - I'm all alone

So I feel forgiven if I'm
under par - a fallen clone

Only in the river
can I claim a star to call my own

I'm newly
born,

In uniform I'm up on the
throne



I am frightened, you are
frightened

Should we get our trousers
tightened?

Where in Brighton is your
norm

Who wears enlightened
uniform?



On my Parka is some band

I
don't really understand

Perry is my guiding
hand

Scooter polo sweeps the land

We are
marching as to war

We won't be obscure no
more

In uniform - in uniform



People
think we dress alike to segregate 
identities

Pills or drink or puffing pipes in
integrated entities

Then they wink and snort
their line and say how great their Bentley
is

They feel so warm when they conform. .
.



They say that nakedness is what our
Lord intended

When we stand naked then we all
appear the same

But it's just faking it if we
all try pretending

Are we just making all our
prayers in the rain

Heaven knows I need new
clothes.



We are marching as to
war

But we are really fighting for

Our 
uniform - our uniform





When I
contemplate my future I go numb, don't feel a
thing

I don't' overrate my suitors number
one, I always sing

But the State and their
computers make me run for comfort in

My
uniform.

In uniform I feel like a
king.



They say that nakedness is what
our Lord intended

When we stand naked then we
all appear the same

But it's just faking it if
we all try pretending

Are we just making all
our prayers in the rain

It seems
insane

But heaven knows

It's all the
same

And I need new clothes
