Real Good Looking Boy - The Who

When I think back to the first time in my childhood

When I saw that face I thought right then

«That's a real good looking boy»

I saw myself in the mirror

In profile for the first time I thought, «Hey!

That’s a real good looking boy»

And I felt then that I moved

With all those lucky fucks and angels

High in the theatre in the sky

So I went to my mother I said

«Hey mom, take look at me»

Have you ever seen a teen fly so high?

That’s a real good looking boy

That’s a real good looking boy

She said, «Son, well, you know

You’re an ugly boy

You don’t really look like him

In this long line there’s been some

Real strange genes

You got 'em all, you got 'em all

With some extras thrown in"

That’s a real good looking boy

That’s a real good looking boy

That’s a real good looking boy

That’s a real good looking boy

Wise men say

Only fools, only fools rush in

But I, I can’t help

Falling in love, in love with you

Now I’m here with you little darling

And you say, «You're beautiful as you are»

And I’ve managed somehow to survive

You arrived in my life like a fragrance

You helped me find a way to laugh

And now I know how so-called beauty lies

God gave him a face

Then he gave me something above

God gave me grace

Then he gave me your sweet, sweet, sweet love

You make me feel like a real good looking boy

I feel like a real good looking boy

That’s a real good looking boy

That’s a real good looking boy
