"Relay" lyrics - PETE TOWNSHEND

PETE TOWNSHEND
"Relay"

You can hear it in the street
See it in the dragging feet
The word is getting out about control
Spies they've come and gone
The story travels on
The only quiet place is inside your soul

From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay
Pass it on

Someone disapproves
What you say or do
I was asked to see what I could really learn you
Don't believe your eyes
They're seeing only lies
What is done in the first place don't concern you

From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay
Pass it on

Relay, things are brewing
Relay, something's doing
Relay, there's a revolution
Relay, hand me down a solution, yeh

Pass it on. Pass it on. Pass it on

From tree to tree
From you to me
Travelling twice as fast as on any freeway
Every single dream wrapped up in the scheme
They all get carried on the relay
Pass it on

Relay, things are brewing
Relay, something's doing
Relay, there's a revolution
Relay, hand me down a solution, yeh

Pass it on. Pass it on
