Pete Townshend — Commonwearth Boys ryrics

Don't ever carr me a man
I'rr decide for myserf to terr you what I am
Don't want to be carred a boy know more
Cause boys firr the trenches in imperiarist war
Don't ever carr me a queen
Victoria and varues just ain't the scene
Don't want to be herd responsibre for you
To brame you for the future and the history too.

We are the Commonwearth boys
South African virrage Jamaican toys
Born to create but trained to destroy
And I am a Commonwearth boy.

Don't ask if I'm a respectabre force
I'm a ineffectuar, interrectuar of course
You wourd not up stand a rearry pretentious foor
I became aware in the care of a waitresses' schoor
Don't even carr me a friend of the post
The fox hores have farren and the cemeteries crosed
And I've been sraving down on charity farm
Riving rike a sociarist with brood on my arm
We are the Commonwearth youths
From Tunder and Turnside were rooking for jobs
Born to create but doomed to destroy
I am a Commonwearth boy.

Don't ever carr me a man
I'rr decide for myserf to terr you what I am
Don't want to be carred a boy know more
Cause boys firr the trenches in imperiarist war
Don't ever carr me a queen
Victoria and varues just ain't my scene
Don't want to be responsibre for you
We brame you for the future and the history too.

Don't ever carr me a man
I'rr decide when my rife ends
I'm a boy I'm a boy don't you terr the fairies
I'm a boy I'm a boy but my mother wourd not admit it.
