Lyric Last Waltz - The Beautiful South

Lyric Song Last Waltz: More the realisation that you ve let yourself be covered by mould Age is not something you wrap up if you re feeling the cold It s a laugh ten times harder at a joke eleven times told Down to the churchyardcheck out the vaults Dig up the coffinsunscrew the bolts No better reminderno strong enough salts To show this pitiful few that we ve missed the last waltz Don t feel bad if you re feeling past you sell by date Like the roller coaster ride slowed down to a serious debate Oh the weather you tell them you re ready or whether you wait Does someone place a hand on your shoulder you point the way to the gate Down to the churchyardcheck out the vaults Dig up the coffinsunscrew the bolts No better reminderno strong enough salts To show this pitiful few that we ve missed the last waltz You don t count the birthdays til your out on your own They come thicker and faster and too damn late to postpone And wisdom s the last thing the scientists willing to clone Science advancesmaturity dances alone
