White City Fighting Lyrics - Pete Townshend

The White City, that's a joke of a name 

It's a black, violent place if I remember the game 

I couldn't wait to get out but I love to go home 

To remember the White City fighting 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

Down to the refuge, near QPR 

I drive to committees in my German car 

Prone to violence, prone to shame 

I glide in silence, my pride in vain 

For no one remembers 

Not that I can see 

That we were defenders 

We were the free

The White City, blood was an addiction 

Now it is analyzed just as though it were fiction 

That battles were won and battles were blown 

At the height of the White City fighting 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

No one remembers 

Not that I can see 

That we were defenders 

We were the free 

The White City, I finally grew up 

To resist the temptation the gutters all threw up 

But I have to go back, I guess I'm violence prone 

To remember the White City fighting, yeah

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City Fighting, remember, remember 

The White City
