You were under the impression
That when you were walking forward
You'd end up further onward
But things ain't quite that simple

You got altered information
You were told to not take chances
You missed out on new dances
Now you're losing all your dimples

My jacket's gonna be cut and slim and checked
Maybe a touch of seersucker, with an open neck
I ride a G.S. scooter with my hair cut neat
Wear my wartime coat in the wind and sleet

Love reign o'er me
Love reign o'er me
Love

I've had enough of living
I've had enough of dying
I've had enough of smiling
I've had enough of crying

I've taken all the high roads
I've squandered and I've saved
I've had enough of childhood
I've had enough of graves

Get a job and fight to keep it
Strike out to reach a mountain
Be so nice on the outside
But inside keep ambition

Don't cry because you hunt them
Hurt them first they'll love you
There's a millionaire above you
And you're under his suspicion

I've had enough of dance halls
I've had enough of pills
I've had enough of street fights
I've seen my share of kills

I'm finished with the fashions
And acting like I'm tough
I'm bored with hate and passion
I've had enough of trying to love

Pete Townshend

Pete Townshend is best known as the lead guitarist and songwriter for British rock band The Who.

Townshend’s original style of songwriting, such as the use of a synthesiser on “Won’t Get Fooled Again” and “Baba O'Riley”, has been appraised, and he is often considered one of the greatest songwriters of all time.

Townshend has also produced numerous albums, including The Who’s 2019 blockbuster album, WHO, and had solo hits like “Let My Love Open the Door”.
