The Punk And The Godfather Lyrics - Quadrophenia: Live In London - Who

PUNK: 

You declared you would be three inches taller 

You only became what we made you 

Thought you were chasing a destiny calling 

You only earned what we gave you 

You fell and cried as our people were starving 

Now you know that we blame you 

You tried to walk on the trail we were carving 

Now you know that we framed you

NEW SONG: Blink-182 - 'Happy Days' Lyrics 

G.F.: 

I'm the guy in the sky 

Flying high, flashing eyes 

No surprise I told lies 

I'm the punk in the gutter 

I'm the new president 

But I grew and I bent 

Don't you know, don't it show? 

I'm the punk with the stutter 

My my my my my mmmm my my my 

GGGGG-g-g-g-g generation 

PUNK: 

We tried to speak between lines of oration 

You could only repeat what we told you 

Your axe belongs to a dying nation 

They don't know that we own you 

You're watching movies trying to find the feelers 

You only see what we show you 

We're the slaves of the phony leaders 

Breathe the air we have blown you 

G.F.: 

I'm the guy in the sky 

Flying high, flashing eyes 

No surprise I told lies 

I'm the punk in the gutter 

I'm the new president 

But I grew and I bent 

Don't you know, don't it show? 

I'm the punk with the stutter 

My my my my my mmmm my my my 

GGGGG-g-g-g-g generation 

I have to be careful not to preach 

I can't pretend that I can teach 

And yet I've lived your future out 

By pounding stages like a clown 

And on the dance floor broken glass 

And bloody faces slowly pass 

The numbered seats in empty rows 

It all belongs to me you know 

PUNK: 

You declared you would be three inches taller 

You only became what we made you 

Thought you were chasing a destiny calling 

You only earned what we gave you 

You fell and cried as our people were starving 

Now you know that we blame you 

You tried to walk on the trail we were carving 

Now you know that we framed you
