The Who - Glittering Girl lyrics

She wasn't a fool

That glittering girl

She followed the rules

That shimmering pearl

Said the rules mama preaches

Go down when they break

The themes mama teaches

You just gotta shake

But she wasn't a fool

That slender love figure

She followed her rules

And made money bigger

She wasn't a fool

That shining young woman

She followed her rules

She's crying for no man

Said the rules mama preaches

Go down when they're broken

She explodes into peaches

And cries when I've spoken

She wasn't a fool

That goddess of hell

There are no mother's rules

She makes them herself

And I was down upon my knees

To beg her surrender up to me

Something inside her

Told her she shouldn't

Tried and alight her

But the girl wouldn't

She wasn't a fool

But love flowed from her face

She's not scared of me

She's afraid of disgrace

She wasn't a fool

That female for our world

She followed her rules

That glittering girl (x4)
