American Beauty movie - The Seeker lyrics

rate me

Song by The Who<br /><br>

I've looked under chairs <br>

I've looked under tables <br>

I've tried to find the key <br>

To fifty million fables <br>

<br>

[chorus:]<br>

They call me The Seeker <br>

I've been searching low and high <br>

I won't get to get what I'm after <br>

Till the day I die <br>

<br>

I asked Bobby Dylan <br>

I asked The Beatles <br>

I asked Timothy Leary <br>

But he couldn't help me either <br>

<br>

[chorus]<br>

<br>

People tend to hate me <br>

'Cause I never smile <br>

As I ransack their homes <br>

They want to shake my hand <br>

<br>

Focusing on nowhere <br>

Investigating miles <br>

I'm a seeker <br>

I'm a really desperate man <br>

<br>

I won't get to get what I'm after <br>

Till the day I die <br>

<br>

I learned how to raise my voice in anger <br>

Yeah, but look at my face, ain't this a smile? <br>

I'm happy when life's good <br>

And when it's bad I cry <br>

I've got values but I don't know how or why <br>

<br>

I'm looking for me <br>

You're looking for you <br>

We're looking in at other <br>

And we don't know what to do <br>

<br>

[chorus]<br>

<br>
