I Don't Wanna Get Wise

de The Who

He was drunk, I was blind
Though it's alright to be kind
I was sunk, always late
We were quick to rotate

Let's be blunt, I was a bluff
And the surreal life was tough
I was a runt, we told lies
But to our great surprise

All the shit that we did
Brought us the money, I guess
And those snotty young kids
Were a standing success

Helped us conquer and rise
And we learned in this town

We don't wanna get wise
(I don't wanna get wise
I don't wanna get wise)
Life teaches us well

We still pull, we get smug
And we all like a drug
All the four always sated
Path of elated

Let's admit our mistakes
Our triggered outbreaks
We were shits, oh, no disguise
And it is no surprise

That the crap that we did
Brought us money, God bless
And those snotty young kids
Were a standing success

Helped us conquer and rise
And we learned in this town

We didn't wanna get wise
(I don't wanna get wise
I don't wanna get wise)
Life teaches us well

Experiment, you universe
We'll ask why you've cheated us
Why set a fire you plan to douse?
Why set a rat to catch a mouse?

He was drunk (he was drunk)
I was blind (he was blind)
No, it's alright to be kind
I was sunk (he was sunk)
He was late (always late)
We were quick to rotate

We tried hard to stay young
But the hallows have sung
We've been starred, we've been prized
But you can see it in our eyes

(I don't wanna get wise
I don't wanna get wise)
We got wise!

(I don't wanna get wise
I don't wanna get wise)
We got wise
(I don't wanna get wise
I don't wanna get wise)
We got wise
(I don't wanna get wise
I don't wanna get wise)
We got wise
