Bell Boy - Lyrics by Who


Lyrics
(keith's theme) the beach is a place where a man can feel(keith's theme) the beach is a place where a man can feel
He's the only soul in the world that's real,
He's the only soul in the world that's real,
Well I see a face coming through the haze,
Well I see a face coming through the haze,I remember him from those crazy days.I remember him from those crazy days.
Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces
Ain't you the guy who used to set the paces
Riding up in front of a hundred faces,
Riding up in front of a hundred faces,I don't suppose you would remember me,I don't suppose you would remember me,
But I used to follow you back in ’63.
But I used to follow you back in ’63.I've got a good job
I've got a good job
And I'm newly born.
And I'm newly born.
You should see me dressed up in my uniform.
You should see me dressed up in my uniform.I work in hotel, all gilt and flash.I work in hotel, all gilt and flash.
Remember the place where the doors were smashed? Remember the place where the doors were smashed? Bell boy! I got to keep running now.
Bell boy! I got to keep running now.
Bell boy! keep my lip buttoned down.
Bell boy! keep my lip buttoned down.
Bell boy! carry this baggage out.
Bell boy! carry this baggage out.
Bell boy! always running at someone's heel.
Bell boy! always running at someone's heel.
You know how I feel, always running at someone's heel.
You know how I feel, always running at someone's heel.
Some nights I still sleep on the beach.
Some nights I still sleep on the beach.
Remember when stars were in reach.
Remember when stars were in reach.
Then I wander in early to work,
Then I wander in early to work,
Spend the day licking boots for my perks.
Spend the day licking boots for my perks.A beach is a place where a man can feel etc.A beach is a place where a man can feel etc.
People often change
People often change
But when I look in your eyes,
But when I look in your eyes,
You could learn a lot from
You could learn a lot from
A job like mine.A job like mine.
The secret to me
The secret to me
Isn't flown like a flag
Isn't flown like a flag
I carry it behind
I carry it behind
This little badge
This little badge
What says...
What says...
Bell boy!
Bell boy!
