Pete Townshend - You're So Clever Lyrics
You're so clever, so smooth and debonair
You're so clever, and you never seem to have a care
You grew unflustered by storms or humid sticky weather
Oh, you're so clever, oh
You're so instant, snap your finger and light for my cigarette
I been busted by your charm when we're together
Oh, you're so clever, oh yeah
I mean it
You're so perfect
You always choose the big ones
I seen you
On the dance floor
And you keep that perfect time
I mean forever, I mean forever
You're so clever
Oh, you're a genesis
Everything that ever gets me hot
I'm reeling, you cause my nemesis
You're everything I want and all I got
There's no one I want but you
And I mean forever
You're so clever
You're so open
So straight, but never plain
So gently spoken
I'm not joking, your smile can stop the rain
I'm going to muster strength, and chase you ever leather
You, you're so clever
Yes, you, you're so clever
Yes, you, you're so clever
Yes, you, you're so clever

Pete Townshend You're So Clever Comments
You're so clever yourself, Pete Townshend. Happy 74th Birthday! <3
Pete's so clever!
I bought this album when it 1st came out. it was ok i suppose. but i love it now; especially this tune. Wish I'd kept it. And the letter I wrote to him and his reply... ah. never mind.
Me too! I've also heard that The Who did a full band version of 'Blue, Red and Grey'. I would have loved to hear that!
I wanna say this is the Scoop remaster from 2006, but I'm not sure of the date because I don't have the CD right in front of me at the moment (it's back home at my parents' house right now--I'm in college). I also had to do some funny things at the time to get around copyright... Anyway, the CD itself sounds excellent--highly recommended!
And I'm glad she did :D Pete's voice is perfect for it :)
she was dick to pass on both songs.
Pete's so clever!
@WizardGlik this is AMAZING!! Like it could have gotten any better.
Good 'Un
Christ this sounds great!
A remaster?
Sounds better with Pete singing. Imagine if Bette Midler was singing this or "And I Moved" It really 'works' with Pete singing it! : D
Never heard Pete wrote this for Bette Midler only " And I Moved"
Yes he's so fucking clever!💜💜💜
I always liked this too. Weird, but I do. Too bad he or (they) never used this this. I wonder how it would sound with real instruments and a kick ass band.
