you thought I was dead
everything made me feel aware
Ah, you're getting old
you're doing things
you're losing your hair
All the things that you used to believe in
Turned out to be true, you're guilty of reason
You're the kind of person that
I could do without
And certain kinds of money would make you see
what it's all about
There's a first time for everything
And a first one's on me, don't you see
All of the things that your old lovers said
look at them, they jump out of windows
and now they're just dead
It's the truth, don't you realize
Faded without any talent or fun
running out on the streets, balling anyone
It's the truth, It's the truth
Pick up the pieces that make up your life
maybe some day you'll have a wife and them alimony
Oh, can't you see
All the things you said you thought I was dead everything made me feel aware Ah, you're getting old you're doing things you're losing your hair All the things that you used to believe in Turned out to be true, you're guilty of reason You're the kind of person that I could do without And certain kinds of money would make you see what it's all about There's a first time for everything And a first one's on me, don't you see All of the things that your old lovers said look at them, they jump out of windows and now they're just dead It's the truth, don't you realize Faded without any talent or fun running out on the streets, balling anyone It's the truth, It's the truth Pick up the pieces that make up your life maybe some day you'll have a wife and them alimony Oh, can't you see Explain Request ×
