cry if you want - the who lyrics
[verse 1]
once it was just innocence
brash ideas and insolence
but you will never get away
with the things you say today
but you can try if you want
do not you get embarr-ssed when you read the precious things you said
many many years ago when life appeared rosy red
no one ever shared your bed
nothing ever filled your head
except yourself and little ted
and scary dreams that you were dead
do not you want to hide your face
when going through your teenage books
and read the kind of cr-p you wrote
about “ban the bomb” and city crooks
think about how long it took
to get over that sudden “yuk”
when in the mirror you would look
well now my son you are well in stook
[chorus]
cry if you want[x2]
[verse 2]
did not you wrath in anger when you saw the man in his big car
did not you drive a banger and a gallon didn’t get you far
should have been a famous star
but that is not what you really are
you could shout your last harrah
while they are propping up the bar
maybe things were better then
before you led a promised life
rash commitments and heavy raps and left wing spiel all compromised
you fall in love with other’s wives
drive them nuts with empty lies
angry because you lost the prize
forgot the color of their eyes
[chorus]
cry if you want[x2]
let your tears flow
let your past go
[verse 3]
do not you get embarr-ssed when you think about the way you were
yesterday the day before when you were young with much to learn
are not you glad it is your last term
no more acting lowly worm
you can make the suckers squirm
when you tell them how much you earn
do not you feel ashamed at all the bitterness you keep inside
does your ego save your face “i had a go – i really tried”
now you know your leaders lied
does it stop you acting snide
or are you still a boy that cried
tears now surely long since dried
[chorus]
