Lyrics

[00:17.94] Well, I'm here looking through an old picture frame
[00:21.36] Just waiting for the perfect view
[00:25.06] I hope something special will step into my life
[00:28.42] Another fine edition of you
[00:32.13] A pin up done in shades of blue
[00:35.44] Sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life
[00:39.00] The country air and all of it's joys
[00:42.45] But badgers couldn't compensate at twice the price
[00:46.05] For just another night with the boys, oh yeah
[00:49.57] And boys will be boys, will be boys, yoy yoys
[00:53.10] They say love's a gamble, hard to win, easy lose
[00:56.35] And while sun shines you'd better make hay
[00:59.36] So if life is your table and fate is the wheel
[01:03.43] Then let the chips fall where they may
[01:06.39] In modern times, the modern way
[02:23.68] And as I was drifting past the Lorelei
[02:27.04] I heard the sinky sirens wail, whoo
[02:31.21] So look out sailor when you hear them croon
[02:34.57] You never been the same again, oh no
[02:38.07] Their crazy music drives you insane, this way
[02:58.72] So love me, leave me, do what you will
[03:03.00] Who knows what tomorrow might bring?
[03:06.34] Learn from your mistakes is my only advice
[03:09.91] And stay cool is still the main rule
[03:13.49] Don't play yourself for a fool
[03:16.49] Too much cheesecake too soon
[03:20.42] Old money's better than new
[03:23.13] No mention in the latest Tribune
[03:27.00] And don't let this happen to you
