Relay Lyrics by Pete Townshend

0

You can hear it in the street
See it in the dragging feet
The word is getting out about control
Spies they've come and gone
The story travels on
The only quiet place is inside your soul
From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay
Pass it on
Someone disapproves
What you say or do
I was asked to see what I could really learn you
Don't believe your eyes
They're seeing only lies
What is done in the first place don't concern you
From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay
Pass it on
Relay, things are brewing
Relay, something's doing
Relay, there's a revolution
Relay, hand me down a solution, yeh
Pass it on. Pass it on. Pass it on
From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay
Pass it on
Relay, things are brewing
Relay, something's doing
Relay, there's a revolution
Relay, hand me down a solution, yeh
Pass it on. Pass it on
