Pete Townshend
The Seeker
[Verse 1]
I've looked under chairs
I've looked under tables
I've tried to find the key
To fifty million fables

[Chorus]
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Until the day I die

[Verse 2]
I asked Bobby Dylan
I asked The Beatles
I asked Timothy Leary
But he couldn't help me either

[Chorus]
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Until the day I die

[Verse 3]
People tend to hate me
Because I never smile
As I ransack their homes
They want to shake my hand
Focusing on nowhere
Investigating miles
[Chorus]
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Until the day I die

[Verse 4]
I learned how to raise my voice in anger
Yeah, but look at my face, ain't this a smile?
I'm happy when life's good
And when it's bad, I cry
I've got values, but I don't know how or why

[Bridge]
I'm looking for me
You're looking for you
We're looking in at other
And we don't know what to do

[Chorus]
They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Until the day I die
