The Who - Tattoo lyrics

Me and my brother were talking to each other Me and my brother were talking to each other 'Bout what makes a man a man 'bout what makes a man a man Was it brain or brawn, or the month you were born Was it brain or brawn, or the month you were born We just couldn't understand We just couldn't understand Our old man didn't like our appearance Our old man didn't like our appearance He said that only women wear long hair He said that only women wear long hair So me and my brother borrowed money from Mother So me and my brother borrowed money from mother We knew what we had to do We knew what we had to do We went downstairs, past the barber and gymnasium We went downstairs, past the barber and gymnasium And got our arms tattooed And got our arms tattooed Welcome to my life, tattoo Welcome to my life, tattoo I'm a man now, thanks to you I'm a man now, thanks to you I expect I'll regret you I expect i'll regret you But the skin graft man won't get you But the skin graft man won't get you You'l be there when I die You'l be there when i die Tattoo Tattoo My dad beat me 'cause mine said 'Mother' My dad beat me 'cause mine said "mother" But my mother naturally liked it and beat my brother But my mother naturally liked it and beat my brother 'Cause his tattoo was of a lady in the nude 'cause his tattoo was of a lady in the nude And my mother thought that was extremely rude And my mother thought that was extremely rude Welcome to my life, tattoo Welcome to my life, tattoo We've a long time together, me and you We've a long time together, me and you I expect I'll regret you I expect i'll regret you But the skin graft man won't get you But the skin graft man won't get you You'll be there when I die You'll be there when i die Tattoo Tattoo Now I'm older, I'm tattooed all over Now i'm older, i'm tattooed all over My wife is tattooed too My wife is tattooed too A rooty-toot-toot, rooty-tooty-toot-toot A rooty-toot-toot, rooty-tooty-toot-toot Rooty-toot-toot tattoo too Rooty-toot-toot tattoo too To you To you
