Lyrics

[00:17.95] Well, I'm here looking through an old picture frame
[00:21.42] Just waiting for the perfect view
[00:24.94] I hope something special will step in to my life
[00:28.48] Another fine edition of you
[00:32.12] A pin-up done in shades of blue
[00:35.38] Cause sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life
[00:39.03] The country air and all its joys
[00:42.49] But badgers couldn't compensate at twice the price
[00:45.99] For just another night with the boys, oh yeah
[00:49.56] And boys will be boys, will be boys
[00:53.10] They say love's a gamble, hard to win, easy lose
[00:56.45] And while sun shines you'd better make hay
[00:59.95] So if life is your table and fate is the wheel
[01:03.55] Then let the chips fall where they may
[01:07.17] In modern times, the modern way
[02:24.59] And as I was drifting past the Lorelei
[02:27.74] I heard those slinky sirens wail - whooo
[02:31.31] So look out, sailor, when you hear them croon
[02:34.81] You'll never been the same again, oh no
[02:38.34] Their crazy music drives you insane - this way
[02:59.75] So love, leave me, do what you will
[03:03.13] Who knows what tomorrow might bring?
[03:06.70] Learn from your mistakes is my only advice
[03:10.04] And stay cool is still the main rule
[03:13.75] Don't play yourself for a fool
[03:17.35] Too much cheesecake too soon
[03:20.77] Old money's better than new
[03:24.35] No mention in the latest Tribune
[03:27.78] And don't let this happen to you
