Album:
Pete Townshend now looks back on the album with great praise. "The music is the best music that I've ever written, I think and it's the best album that I will ever write."
When a man is running from his boss
Who hold a gun that fires "cost"
And people die from being cold
Or left alone because they're old
And bombs are dropped on fighting cats
And children's dreams are run with rats
If you complain you disappear
Just like the lesbians and queers
No one can love without the grace
Of some unseen and distant face
And you get beaten up by blacks
Who though they worked still got the sack
And when your soul tells you to hide
Your very right to die denied
And in the battle on the streets
You fight computers and receipts
And when a man is trying to change
But only causes further pain
You realize that all along
Something in us going wrong
You stop dancing.

Always loved "The Who". My sister was always listening to them. I agree.. great writing.
I could listen to this album and "Who's Next" without ever getting weary of them.
Two verifiable classics of their genre
Who's Next, agreed.
Quadrophenia? Not so much.
I agree, Who's Next and Quadrophenia are my favorite Who albums. I could listen to Quadrophenia forever but nobody I know has heard of it.
Well, my friend, you have a mission
Educate the unwashed masses!!
