Face The Face Lyrics By Pete Townshend

    face the face got to face the face
    face the face got to face the face

    you must have heard the cautionary tales
    the dangers hidden on the culdesac trails
    from wiser folk who have been through it all
    and the faded names sprayed up on the wall

    we’ve got to judge the judge
    we’ve got to find the finds
    we’ve got to scheme the schemes
    we’ve got to line the lines
    we must stake the stakes
    we gotta show the shown
    we gotta take the takes
    we gotta know the known

    try to place the place
    where we can face the face
    we got to face the face
    try to place the place
    where we can face the face

    face the face got to face the face
    face the face got to face the face

    got to
    got to

    you must have tried and defied belief
    maybe buried your head in insular grief
    i need your hunger you need mine
    a million mouths can swallow up time

    we’ve got to fool the fools
    we got to plan the plans
    we got to rule the rules
    we got to stand the stands
    we got to fight the fight
    we must fall the falls
    we got to light the light
    we got to call the calls

    we must race the race
    so we can face the face
    we got to race the race
    we must race the race
    so we can face the face

    face the face we got to face the face
    we got to race the race
    we got to

    keep looking

    new york chicago
    london and glasgow
    keep looking

    keep on looking
    keep on cooking
    got to stay on this case
    study the pix
    watch the flix
    we’ve got to find the face

    face the face got to face the face watch the flix
    got to

    we’ve got to judge the judge
    we got to find the finds
    we’ve got to scheme the schemes
    we got to line the lines
    we got to fight the fight
    we got to fall the falls
    we got to light the light
    we got to call the calls

    try to place the place
    where we can face the face
    we got to face the face
    try to place the place
    where we can face the face
    try to place the place
    where we can face the face
    keep looking keep looking
    we must race the race
    so we can face the face
    we got to race the race
    we must race the race
    so we can face the face
    we got to face the face
    we got to race the race
