	Keith Moon didn't earn his chops as a songwriter, and his reputation as the reckless party bloke is well-deserved, but the lyrics of this song are surprisingly insightful and sensitive to his own life-style. A pedestrian melody is greatly augmented by the fascinating keyboards.	Bruce Beatlefan	December 15, 2007

Lyrics

Knowing
Is what people tell you
That you're thinking wrong
Embrace you,
But they really mean "So long"

You talk to them
They laugh aloud
Yet they run to you
In any crowd

Please talk to me again
I need you

We're dancing
We will come and dance near you
We want to learn
Let us come and sitar with you

Distort my ears when
The music's loud
Yet you raise your hatchet
In the yellow crowd

Please talk to me again
I need you

Knowing
Is what people tell you
That you're thinking wrong
Embrace you,
But they really mean "So long"

You talk to them
They laugh aloud
Yet they run to you
In any crowd

Please talk to me again
I need you
