Tattoo (Live At Leeds)

[Verse 1: Roger Daltry]
Me and my brother were talking to each other
'Bout what makes a man a man
Was it brain, or brawn, or the month you were born?
We just couldn't understand

[Chorus 1: Pete Townshend]
Our old man didn't like our appearance
He said that "Only women wear long hair"

[Verse 2: Roger Daltry]
So me and my brother borrowed money from Mother
We knew what we had to do
We went downstairs, past the barber and gymnasium
And got our arms tattooed

[Chorus 2: Roger Daltry, Pete Townshend]
Welcome to my life, tattoo
I'm a man now, thanks to you
I expect I'll regret you
But the skin graft man won't get you
You'll be there when I die
Tattoo

[Verse 3: Roger Daltry]
My dad beat me cause mine said "Mother"
But my mother naturally liked it and beat my brother
Cause his tattoo was of a lady in the nude
And my mother thought that was extremely rude

[Chorus 2]

[Verse 4: Roger Daltry]
Now I'm older, I'm tattooed all over
My wife is tattooed, too
A-rooty-toot-toot, a-rooty-tooty-toot-toot
Rooty-toot-toot tattoo, too
To you

[Crowd cheering]
