The Who - Why Did I Fall For That lyrics

The streets of the future littered with remains The streets of the future littered with remains Of both the fools and the so called brains Of both the fools and the so called brains The whole prediction is enough to k** The whole prediction is enough to k** But only God knows if it won't or it will But only god knows if it won't or it will Nobody knows why we fell so flat Nobody knows why we fell so flat Some silly creature said we'd never crack Some silly creature said we'd never crack Most would just survive and then bounce back Most would just survive and then bounce back But the rest are crying 'Why'd I fall for that crap' But the rest are crying "why'd i fall for that crap" Why did I fall for that? Why did i fall for that? So many rash promises sincerly made So many rash promises sincerly made By people who believed that we were being saved By people who believed that we were being saved They made us all believe that we were acting white They made us all believe that we were acting white But the truth is we've forgotten how we used to fight But the truth is we've forgotten how we used to fight Nobody knows why we fell so flat Nobody knows why we fell so flat We're impotent and neutered like whining cats We're impotent and neutered like whining cats We've found the piper but we've lost the rats We've found the piper but we've lost the rats But the kids are crying 'Why'd I fall for that dad?' But the kids are crying "why'd i fall for that dad?" Why did you fall? Why did you fall? It never rains under my umbrella It never rains under my umbrella Four minutes to midnight on a sunny day Four minutes to midnight on a sunny day Maybe if we smile the clock'll fade away Maybe if we smile the clock'll fade away Maybe we can force the hands to just reverse Maybe we can force the hands to just reverse Maybe a word, maybe maybe is a curse Maybe a word, maybe maybe is a curse Nobody knows why we fell so flat Nobody knows why we fell so flat We've never been taught to fight or to face up to facts We've never been taught to fight or to face up to facts We simply believe that we'd remain intact We simply believe that we'd remain intact But history is asking why did you fall for that But history is asking why did you fall for that Why did you fall? Why did you fall? Why did I fall for that Why did i fall for that Why did I fall for that Why did i fall for that Why did I fall for that Why did i fall for that
