Eminence Front


Pete Townshend © 1982 Towser Tunes Inc./Longitude Music Co./BMI

The sun shines
And people forget.
The spray flies,
The speedboat glides
And people forget.
Forget they're hiding.
The girls smile
And people forget.
The snow packs
As the skier tracks
And people forget.
Forget they're hiding.

Behind an eminence front
Eminence front--it's a put-on

Come and join the party
Dress to kill
come and join the party
Dress to kill

The drinks flow
People forget.
That big wheel spins
The head thins
People forget.
Forget they're hiding.
The news slows
People forget.
The shares crash, hopes are dashed.
People forget.
They forget they're hiding.

Behind an eminence front
Eminence front--it's a put-on
Come and join the party
Dress to kill
Come and join the party
Dress to kill
Come and join the party
Dress to kill
Come and join the party
Dress to kill
Dress yourself to kill.
