Lyrics Pete Townshend – Teresa
Text:
Teresa, I had no idea how much I’d need her
Take me home and teach me how to feed her
My heart is palpitating and I guess wrong
But I guess I’ll get along
Teresa, all I ever want to do is please her
She pulls me up and kissed me what’s the reason
I just keep on crashing down in the guest room
Guess I’ll get along
She’s just a girl
I don’t know if I love her
Passion
Teresa, just a girl just a girl
Teresa, she’s just a girl just a girl
Teresa, just a girl just a girl
Teresa, just a girl
She’s just a girl
Just a fucking girl
Teresa, my heart felt like a shattered glass in an acid bath
I felt like one of those flattened ants you find on a crazy path
I’d’ve topped myself to give you time, you don’t need to ask
I’m a suicidal psychopath?
You’re just a girl — you’re just a girl
Consumed, there’s a beautiful white horse I saw on a dream stage
He had a snake the size of a sewer pipe living in his rib cage
I feel like a pickled priest who was being flambed
It’s an inquisition Blondie
Just a girl — I’m happy
I’m fucking ecstatic, lucky, lucky
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl
Teresa, you picked me up by my lapels and screamed «cheater»
It’s like waking up in heaven on an empty meter
I know you’re in love with a man who’s really a leader
I hate the cunt, I don’t mean that
I just said it
Forget it, please
It is a girl
Ah
It’s just a girl
Yeah yeah yeah yeah just a girl
You’re just a girl
Just a fucking girl
