Empty Glass - The Who

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
