The Seeker Pete Townshend

I've looked under chairs
I've looked under tables
I've tried to find the key
To fifty million fables

They call me The Seeker
I've been searching low and high
I won't find what I'm after
Till the day I die

I asked my idols
The question to my mother [?]
I bought a ticket to anywhere
Hoping to discover

They call me The Seeker
I've been looking low and high
I won't get to get what I'm after
Till the day I die

People tend to hate me
'Cause I never smile
As I ransack their homes
They want to shake my hand

Focusing on nowhere
Investigating miles
I'm a seeker
I'm a really desperate man
