Times turn for that night on the town All week at work and now it’s time to be found This way or that way a few shots at the bar, A pint or two now just settle the nerves Skin on skin if it’s Sonny or Cher A night back at mine for I don’t really care You’re a desperate case of loving if that’s what you want Anywhere will do if you drink from that font Hello, from the ***** side of drinking Hello, just what had you been thinking Had enough, of this desperate kind of torture Time to change, to a newer type of nature A new you well that’s what you’re thinking Giving up on highs and the ugly side of sinking A road of new signs, travel now to somewhere That new name, taken out of fresh air Let’s build this man, another to mix with the yes I cans Married with that job, no different from you and me man You’re a desperate case of loving if that’s what you want Anywhere will do if you drink from that font Hello, from the ***** side of drinking Hello, just what had you been thinking Had enough, of this desperate kind of torture Time to change, to a newer type of nature So, this is me, fresh new eyes to a world of cynicism The choices I once now made open to your scepticism Times move on so let’s forget the mistakes I made I was young and open to most things I’m afraid There’s no next time so lets just try it now You’re along time dead, just give it all a go Its goodbye from me as I take my final bow, Easy tiger.
