Let's See Action

Note: * denotes verses from Pete's demo version

Let's see action
Let's see people
Let's see freedom
Let's see who cares
Take me with you
When you leave me
And my shell
Behind us there

I have learned it
Known who burned me
Avatar has warmed my feet
Take me with you
Let me see you
Time and life can meet

*[Rumour has it
Minds are open
Then you must fill them up with lies
Future passing
Nothing lasting
I try to scream, 'cause nothing dies]

Nothing is, everything
Everything is, nothing is
Please the people
Audiences
Break the fences, nothing is

Let's see action
Let's see people
Let's see freedom
In the air
Let's see action
Let's see people
Let's be free
Let's see who cares

Give me a drink, boy
Wash my feet
I'm so tired of running
From my own heat
Take this package
And here's what you do
Gotta get this
Information through

I don't know where I'm going
I don't know what I need
But I'll get to where I'm gonna end up
And that's alright by me

*[I've been running from side to side
Now I know for sure, that both sides lied
It's got so hard, but we gotta keep trying
I can't stand to see my people crying}

Repeat verse 1

Nothing is, everything
Everything is, nothing




Join Together


Pete Townshend © 1972 Towser Tunes Inc./Fabulous Music Ltd./Abkco Music Inc./BMI

When you hear the sound a-comin'
Hear the drummer drumming
Won't you join together in the band
We don't move in any 'ticular direction
And we don't make no collections
Won't you join together in the band.

Do you really not care
What you eat or what you wear?
Won't you join together in the band
There's a million ways to laugh
And every one's a path
Come on and join together in the band

Everybody join together
Won't you join together
Come on and join together in the band
We need to join together
Won't you join together
Come on and join together in the band

You don't have to play
And you can follow or lead the way
Won't you join together in the band
We don't know where we're going
But the season's right for knowing
Won't you join together in the band

It's the singer not the song
That makes the music move along
Won't you join together in the band
This is the biggest band you'll find
It's as deep as it is wide
Won't you join together in the band

Everybody join together, etc.




Relay


Pete Townshend © 1972 Towser Tunes Inc./Fabulous Music Ltd./Abkco Music Inc./BMI

You can hear it in the street
See it in the dragging feet
The word is getting out about control
Spies they've come and gone
The story travels on
The only quiet place is inside your soul

From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream
Wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay

"Pass it on"

Someone disapproves
Of what you say or do
I was asked to see what I could really learn you
Ddon't believe your eyes
They're seeing only lies
What is done in the first place don't concern you

From tree to tree...etc.

Relay...things are brewin'
Relay...something's doin'
Relay...it's a revolution
Relay, relay
Hand me down a solution, yeah!

"Pass it on"
