Pete Townshend — Let's Get Pretentious lyrics

Lyrics

Psychoderelict
Let’s Get Pretentious
Let’s get pretentious
Put on an act
Let’s get portentous
Embroider fact
Exaggerate it Dress up the bland
Let’s overrate it Let the critics be damned
Let’s get sensuous
Put on some some airs
Let’s drink kahluas
All bored on the stairs
Let’s get excited
When we say hello
Let’s be delighted
Though it’s nobody we know
I don’t know much
But I know what I like
I don’t know much
But so and so said such and such
Let’s find a market
For sparkling wit
Let’s make a target
Of anyone with a hit
Let’skeep some secrets
Let’s make them up Put them together
Then break them up I don’t know much
But I know what I like
