SONG: The Ballad of Pete Townshend
THE BALLAD OF PETE TOWNSHEND
(Lyrics: David Lefkowitz. Music: Alan Jay Lerner and Frederick Loewe’s “Thank Heaven for Little Girls”)
Thank heaven for little girls
For little girls are small in every way
Thank heaven for little boys
You can look at them with lust and not be gay.
When I was just a lad, I was molested
That’s why I like `em small and thimble-breasted
Thank heaven for little girls
For leading boys like me astray
Don’t call me a pedophile
Or judge me by the websites that I join
It’s normal to be beguiled
By fuzz upon an adolescent groin
A toddler in a speedo knocks me socks off
Just watching “Teletubbies” gets me rocks off
Thank heaven for little girls
And naked baby bodies on display
Thank heaven for pre-teen porn
The internet is full of nubile flesh
And please don’t treat me with scorn
`Cause once they menstruate, they’re not so fresh
When I get me a towel to put me sperm in
I do like Jeffrey Jones and Pee-Wee Herman
Thank heaven for little girls
For blowing boys like me away
Thank heaven for little girls
Their bottoms are just perfect for a spank
There’s nothing in all the world
Like reading “Little Women” when I –
(spoken) “Wait. Wait a minute. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls: as a member of The Who, I have been in the public eye for forty odd years. Aren’t I entitled to a little privacy? A little private time between me and me hard drive? It’s just research. To fight sexual abuse of children, you have to think like a pervert. As my music teacher once told me, `If you wanna play the violin, you gotta fiddle around a bit. Fiddle around a bit,’ he said. So ladies and gentlemen, I ask you to indulge a creative person. An artist. When I ram the neck of me Gibson Les Paul into an amp and make a big hole, that’s just a sublimation of your desires, ain’t it? And do you really think I could do that windmill move on the guitar if I didn’t spend hours practicing on something else?”
Young ladies are heaven sent
I keep them after school for a pop quiz
They finger me instrument
And when they’re done, I fill them up with . . . joy.
