The Who - Behind Blue Eyes (Live In London 1979)
- 16 years ago
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you!
No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
When my fist
clenches, crack it
open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me
some bad news
Before I laugh and
act like a fool
And If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And If I shiver, please
give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me
wear your coat
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
No one knows what it's like
To be hated
To be fated
To telling only lies
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours, only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
No one knows what it's like
To feel these feelings
Like I do
And I blame you!
No one bites back as hard
On their anger
None of my pain and woe
Can show through
But my dreams
They aren't as empty
As my conscience seems to be
I have hours only lonely
My love is vengeance
That's never free
When my fist
clenches, crack it
open
Before I use it and lose my cool
When I smile, tell me
some bad news
Before I laugh and
act like a fool
And If I swallow anything evil
Put your finger down my throat
And If I shiver, please
give me a blanket
Keep me warm, let me
wear your coat
No one knows what it's like
To be the bad man
To be the sad man
Behind blue eyes
