lyrics

Looks like it’s getting
Too late to be alone
We’re no spring chickens
And that clock is ticking
The sun is setting
On everything we’ve known
Guess we’d better dance
It says you can’t stand here

No time left for these
Sweet bedtime stories
Too late for lullabies

Cream gone to curds now
And roses gone to dust
They've got new language
New terms, and new ‘slanguage
They’ve got new words now
For old problems like us
Guess we’d better kiss
It says you can’t smoke here

No time left for these
Sweet bedtime stories
Too late for lullabies

This silver tongue upon a time
Could always knock ‘em dead
But there ain't enough verses left
To sing you into bed

Looks like our angels
Have ducked out for a piss
Where else could they be?
Just you and me, baby

Shake out a pain pill
And chase it with a kiss
Guess we’d better drown
It says you can’t swim here

No time left for these
Sweet little bedtime stories
Too late for lullabies

Too late for lullabies
