Sally Simpson - The Who

Outside the house
Mr Simpson announced
That Sally couldn't go to the meeting
He went on cleaning
His blue Rolls Royce
And she ran inside weeping

She got to her room
And tears splashed the picture
Of the new Messiah

She picked up a book of her fathers life
And threw it on the fire

She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her Mother said never mind your part
Is to be what you'll be

The theme of the sermon
Was come unto me
Love will find a way

So Sally decided to ignore her dad
And sneak out anyway

She spent all afternoon getting ready
And decided she'd try to touch him
Maybe he'd see that she was free
And talk to her this Sunday

She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her Mother said
Never mind your part
Is to be what you'll be

She arrived at six
And the place was swinging
To gospel music by nine

Group after group appeared
On the stage
And Sally just sat there crying

She bit her nails looking
Pretty as a picture
Right in the very front row

And then a DJ wearing a blazer
With a badge
Ran on and said 'here we go '

The crowd went crazy
As Tommy hit the stage

Little Sally got lost as the police bossed
The crowd back in a rage

But soon the atmosphere was cooler
As Tommy gave a lesson
Sally just had to let him know
She loved him
And leapt up on the rostrum

She ran cross stage to the spotlit figure
And touched him on the face

Tommy whirled around
As a uniformed man
Threw her of the stage

She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her Mother said
Never mind your part
Is to be what you'll be

Her cheek hit a chair
And blood trickled down
Mingling with her tears
Tommy carried on preaching
And his voice filled Sally's ear
She caught his eye she had to try
But couldn't see through the lights
Her face was gashed
And the ambulance men
Had to carry her out that night

The crowd went crazy
As Tommy left the stage

Little Sally was lost for
The price of a touch
And a gash across her face Oooh

Sixteen stitches put her right
And her Dad said
'Don't say I didn't warn yer'
Sally got married to a rock musician
She met in California

Tommy always talks about the day
The disciples all went wild

Sally still carries a scar on her cheek
To remind her of his smile

She knew from the start
Deep down in her heart
That she and Tommy were worlds apart

But her Mother
Said never mind your part
Is to be what you'll be
