Jack you've spreading round for so long, now I'm so tired |
|
The only thing you can go and do is get yourself fired |
|
And with your pay cheque, just like the last one |
|
When tonight's through it will be gone and so will I |
|
This is been a long life, now mine is nearly through |
|
I've had a lot of time to think now I must speak to you |
|
Tell me am I dreaming as I look around |
|
We can't afford a descent life for those with their feet on the ground |
|
I feel it my duty to try and pass it on |
|
This wisdom I've acquired.. |
|
I understand the nature of life |
|
As well as any soul left living |
|
As well as any man still alive |
|
you said there's an answer for a hundred years or two |
|
it came in a dream one night, wisdom only comes to a few |
|
This is been a long life now mine is nearly through |
|
And if I'd have the my again, I'd spend it all with you |
|
I feel it my duty to try and pass it on |
|
This wisdom I've acquired.. |
|
I understand the nature of life |
|
As well as any soul left living |
|
As well as any man still alive |
|
Dreams exist in dreamland, my passion fails to show |
|
My eyes no longer sparkle, desire begins to slow |
|
Comfort peace slips beyond my imagination |
|
It's your life they demand for little appreciation |
|
It's all well and good when it's understood, we can beat them if we try |
|
It's all well and good when it's understood, we can beat them if we try |
|
This is been a long life, now mine is nearly through |
|
I've had a lot of time to think now I must speak to you |
|
This is been a long life now mine is nearly through |
|
And if I'd have my time again I'd spend it all with you |
|
Everyone will be together to hear the word to the wise |
