Who, The - Athena Lyrics
Athena, I had no idea how much I'd need her
In peaceful times I hold her close and I feed her
My heart starts palpitating when I think my guess was wrong
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Athena, all I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
She's just a girl
Athena, 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 of topped myself to give her time she didn't need to ask
Was I a suicidal psychopath?
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Consumed, there was 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 felt like a pickled priest who was being flambed
You were requisitioned blondie
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
I'm happy, I'm ecstatic
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
She's just a girl
Look into the face of a child
Measure how long you smiled
Before the memory claimed
How long would children remain
How long would children remain
Athena, you picked me up by my lapels and screamed "leave her"
It felt like waking up in heaven on an empty meter
And now you're stuck with a castrated leader
And I hate the creep, I didn't mean that
She's a bomb
I just said it
She's a bomb
I didn't mean it, please
She's a bomb
Athena, I had no idea how much I need her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I get along
She's just a girl, she's a bomb
She's just a girl, she's a bomb

This takes me back to my best year ever - 1982. And the song kicks ass too.
When I first heard this song, I thought they sung 'She's just a girl/She's a wh*re < Facepalm >
Very Well Done...
OUTSTANDING...
You got me requisitioned blondie
THE best who tune.

great song
A very underrated Who song.
Greatful Dead The Best American band, The Who...Best In The World
Roger really belting it out in this--love
love this song
2019 🇬🇧
I had a young girl tell me how unusual Athena was as a name. I said it was not an unusual name. I played the song for her. Her eyes got as wide as saucers with a look of amazement. She said "I guess it is not as unusual as I thought."
Why is Keith Moon in the picture? He died in 1978. Athena wasn't recorded until 1980, released in 1982.
My teacher recommended me this song due to my name and I love it :))
The tamer lyrical flavors of The Who! Thank You Lads
This song will never get old. Timeless indeed
THIS SONG IS ABOUT T.RUSSEL
These guys were awesome. Enough said
Thank You for posting! fabulous !
You got requisitioned blondie.. love that.
Why do so many people say this album sucks? It's one of their best. I like it better than anything they did since the late 60s.
Theresa Russell...YUM!
They wrote this song about me, Bubba.
I named my daughter Athena :)
i now know
that if athena smiles upon you
you are well blessed
:)
I love this song! don't know why, don't need to
"She's just a girl..she's a frog"
All the Athenas crawling out of our caves and looking ourselves up
To you, Athena. *raises glass*
One of the forgotten all-time great songs in my opinion.
No + lyrics
Check the description box
It's for ONASSIS!
I'm going to name my first daughter Athena and my second daughter Victoria (nike)
She's a girl: she's a goddess...go greek women
My firstborn daughter's name! Totally surprised to hear this.
Reminds me of my brother Eddie he committed suicide in 2013
It's Hard is without a doubt their best post-Keith Moon era album.
Their two best albums (this and the 1981 F@¢€ D@N©£$) prove
M°°n was as nesessary as a wooly pully in Montserrat *
To all the Athenas out there...You're The Bomb!
Timelessness Rachel Steele ROCKS Sirius XM's satellite radio show channels 25/26 Classic Rewind/ Classic vinyl every day from 5:30 till 11:00 pm. Dont miss out nobody plays better classic rock ever...
Love me some Rachel Steele
Only a spoiled rock star would be 'really out of my mind with frustration and grief because she didn't reciprocate' after meeting a woman for the first time for part of one evening. Poor Pete. Great musician, love his creations with the Who & Solo. Bought revords, went to shows. Read & listened to many interviews with Pete - arrogant asshole human being, but a great talent.
And a pedo...
Love this song.
Whoever mixed and mastered this album needs to be fired.
Interesting story about Theresa Russell. In my memory seems like she and Jeff Fahey were in every movie produced in the 80s. But checking IMDB, I guess I'm thinking of exactly one movie, and that was from 1990. Well close enough.
all that, &, in under 4 minutes: talent!
Hi Athena!
The Who. What a great band back in the day. It never dies.
Turning almost nothing, into something; again. Talent? YES!
All school year 1987 i played tthis
Classic love the middle eight
sing along:
Athena, I had no idea how much I'd need her
In peaceful times I hold her close and I feed her
My heart starts palpitating when I think my guess was wrong
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Athena, all I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb, she's a bomb
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
She's just a girl
Athena, 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 of topped myself to give her time she didn't need to ask
Was I a suicidal psychopath?
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Consumed, there was 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 felt like a pickled priest who was being flambed
You were requisitioned blondie
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
I'm happy, I'm ecstatic - she's a bomb
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
She's just a girl
Look into the face of a child
Measure how long you smiled
Before the memory claimed
How long would children remain
How long would children remain
Athena, you picked me up by my lapels and screamed "leave her"
It felt like waking up in heaven on an empty meter
And now you're stuck with a castrated leader
And I hate the creep, I didn't mean that
She's a bomb
I just said it
She's a bomb
I didn't mean it, please
She's a bomb
Athena, I had no idea how much I need her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I get along
She's just a girl, she's a bomb
She's just a girl, she's a bomb
Brilliant!
These lyrics are fantastic ~ thanks !! So love this song!! 😊
Love love love!!
Not sure why I thought of this song earlier, but here I am.....glad I did
Roger Daltrey is amazing! He is so versatile, and funny! And what a voice and range!
I think he's the best.
Is not this Pete singing?
Brilliant stuff by The Who. No one can touch Pete Townsend. This is songwriting of the highest order.
Where's the lyrics?
Sheer genius.The Who could change up{Mamas got a squeezebox).Legendary
Oh that Theresa Russell !
Athena I had no idea how much I need her
In peaceful times I hold her close and I feed her
My heart starts palpitating
When I think my guess was wrong
But I think I'll get alone
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
Athena
All I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled
And she's the reason
Just one word from her
And my troubles are long gone
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
She's a bomb
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl, just a girl
She's just a girl
Athena
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 have stopped myself to give her time
She didn't need to ask
Was I a suicidal psychopath
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
Consumed
There was a beautiful white horse
I saw on a dream stage
He had a snake the size of a sewer pipe
Livin' in his rib cage
I felt like a pickled priest
Who was being flambed
You've got me requisitioned blondie
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
I'm happy
She's a bomb
I'm ecstatic
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl, just a girl
Just a girl
Look into the face of a child
Measure how long you smiled
Before the mem'ry claimed
How long would children remain
How long could children remain
Athena
You picked me up by my lapels
And screamed "leave her"
I felt like waking up in heaven
On an empty meter
And now you're stuck
With a castrated leader
And I hate the creep
I didn't mean that
She's a bomb
I just said it
She's a bomb
Please She's a bomb
Athena
I had no idea how much I need her
My life has been so settled
And she's the reason
Just one word from her
And my troubles are long gone
Ooh but I get along
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
She's just a girl
She's a bomb
He really made an ASS out of himself w that chick. Roger didn't even want to play this song cuz of that shit. Alcohol strikes again!
The most underrated Who song ever
When I first heard this song, I thought they sung 'She's just a girl/She's a wh*re < Facepalm >

My name is Athena
400th Sub
First song I heard from this album. It was August 82 I think. I was 14. Saw them Sept 30 in the Silverdome....
My cat’s name is ATHENA!
"Athena"
Athena, I had no idea how much I'd need her
In peaceful times I hold her close and I feed her
My heart starts palpitating when I think my guess was wrong
But I think I'll get along

Athena, all I ever want to do is please her
My life has been so settled and she's the reason
Just one word from her and my troubles are long gone
But I think I'll get along
She's just a girl - she's a bomb
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
Just a girl just a girl
She's just a girl
Athena, 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 named my cat after this song.
Thumbs Up If You Love The Who And This Song!
She;'s a WHORE!
This is about Theresa Russel, actress from the Razors Edge and Wild Things
NOW who's castrated? #askingforafriend
There arent lyrics!!!!!! Do you know what lyrics are?????? Ugh people are so stupid!
Look in the description
Athena, no tenía ni idea de lo mucho que la necesito...vendras mi Athena te dejaran venir o es que ya no existes...te adoro mi Athena...te espere y esparare toda una vida
I'd be honored if some Who/P.T. fans would check out my acoustic piano & vocal covers of SLIT SKIRTS and A LITTLE IS ENOUGH on my channel in tribute to the master. Live acoustic with no digital editing. Thanks and peace.
Keith moon is amazing as is pete
R is a suicidal psychopath..
I doioked Jody Black in 10th after hearing this song a couple joints helped .
Good sound quality.
consumed, there was a beautiful white horse I saw on a dream stage, he had a snake the size of sewer pipe living in his rib cage, I felt like a pickled priest who was being flambeed.
I skipped afternoon classes one time when all 5 of us were tripping had and great time in my trip room
great song
shrek brought me here
Another example of Pete's amazing song writing, one of my favorite Who songs. It's Hard was a very good album, doesn't get much credit next to all the other Who albums.
well for the win, you girls are all goddesses ;)
This is my Ducati moto name Athena
Ya
this is how I named my great pernis
Tiffiny Hovdy, you broke my heart. Wont you please heal it with one last kiss? Never mind. You probably look like your mom now. But she was a MILF, so, anyway.....
