However Much I Booze
The Who Lyrics
However Much I Booze by The Who
(Townshend)
I see myself on T.V., I'm a faker, a paper clown
It's clear to all my friends that I habitually lie; I just bring them down
I claim promise to exaggeration
But the truth lies in my frustration
The children of the night, they all pass me by
Have to drench myself in brandy
In sleep I'll hide
But however much I booze
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out
I lose so many nights of sleep worrying about my responsibility
All the problems that screw me up really down to pin on me
My ego will just confuse me
Some day it's going to up and use me
Dish me out ano
Tell me about some destiny I can't prevent
And however much I squirm
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out
Won't somebody tell me how to get out of this place?!
Then the night comes down like a cell door closing
Suddenly I realize that I'm right now, I'm on the scene
While sitting here all alone with a bottle and my head a-floating
Far away from the phone and the conscience going on at me
And on at me, and I don't care what you say
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
Now the walls are all clawed and scratched
Like by some soul in sin
In the morning I humbly detach myself
I take no blame
I just can't face my failure
I'm nothing but a well f**ked sailor
You at home can easily decide what's right
By glancing very briefly at the songs I write
But it don't help me that you know
This ain't no way out
Won't somebody tell me?
I don't care what you say, boy
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
Give me the key, lock it away
There ain't
There ain't
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
There ain't no way out
