The Lyrics

they're an old loud band
who were once quite grand
but their drummer croaked
then their bassist man
but as young boys, they made the crowds go "wow"
townshend's wrecked his ears, daltrey's like a cow
and they're both past sixty and shaky now
limply, the who still plays

they're an old loud band
who are undermanned
there were two that died
that was quite unplanned
though they once were cool, now they're out of date
its been quite a while, since the band was great
they were all the rage, back in sixty-eight
limply, the who still plays

they're an old loud band
who can barely stand
but they come to town
for their aged fans
they forget the songs, every verse, they blow
its a big charade, its a horror show
but the fans respond with their lighters' glow
limply, the who still plays
limply, the who still plays
limply...the...who...still...plays
