Lyrics Empty Glass - The Who

Empty Glass

Why was I born today
Life is useless like Ecclesiastes say
I never had a chance
But opportunity’s now in my hands
I stand with my guitar
All I need’s a mirror
Then I’m a star
I’m so sick of dud TV
Next time you switch on
You might see me
(Oh, what a thrill for you)
I’ve been there and gone there
I’ve lived there and bummed there
I’ve spinned there, I gave there
I drank there and I slaved there
I’ve had enough of the way things been done
Every man on a razors edge
Someone has used us to shoot with the same gun
Killing each other then we jump off a ledge
My life’s a mess I wait for you to pass
I stand here at the bar, I hold an empty glass
Don’t worry smile and dance
You just can work life out
Don’t let down moods entrance you
Take the wine and shout
