Lyrics Face The Face - Pete Townshend

Face The Face

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 cul-de-sac trails
From wiser folk who’ve been through it all
And the bad deed names sprayed up on the wall
We gotta judge the judge
We gotta find the finds
We gotta scheme the schemes
We gotta 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 miles can swallow up time.
We gotta fool the fools
We gotta plan the plans
We gotta rule the rules
We gotta stand the stands
We gotta fight the fight
We must fall the falls
We gotta light the light
We gotta 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
Gotta stay on this case
Study the pix
Watch the flix
We’ve got to find the place.
Face the face, got to face the face
Watch the flix
Got to We gotta judge the judge
We gotta find the finds
We gotta scheme the schemes
We gotta line the lines
We gotta fight the fight
We gotta fall the falls
We gotta light the light
We gotta call the calls
Try to place the place
Where we can face the face.
We gotta 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 gotta race the race
We must race the race.
So we can face the face
We gotta face the face
We gotta race the race
