I am a decrepit old man On the brink of sacred flesh Don’t know what I’m searching for Just pounding it out I dreamed of perfection I’m hoping this is my resurrection The pound of young flesh on my screen Just whacking it out Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me the time wasted before I get old One thing that I learnt in this long endless life Is deceit and lies and to cover it all up When I was a young fella I was a walking hard on Now in my late years, it seems nothin has changed It was great for a while there and it was all going great The siren call from my laptop just too much to take Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me the time wasted before I get old One thing that I learnt in this long endless life Is deceit and lies and to cover it all up Car tyres are flat and rego run out Sittin like a pig in mud with no shower in sight I had it all… daughters…. And a faithful wife How did we live our best years and have nothin’ to share? Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me the time wasted before I get old One thing that I learnt in this long endless life Is deceit and lies and to cover it all up Alone with screen and my hand Thrashing the cold sheets in my unmade bed Surfing the net is just a band aid I can’t tear off Pounding the surf trying to stay afloat Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me time wasted before I get old If I could rise from this wave that I am on No more deceit or lies when I am alone

Pounding The Surf
I am a decrepit old man On the brink of sacred flesh Don’t know what I’m searching for Just pounding it out I dreamed of perfection I’m hoping this is my resurrection The pound of young flesh on my screen Just whacking it out Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me the time wasted before I get old One thing that I learnt in this long endless life Is deceit and lies and to cover it all up When I was a young fella I was a walking hard on Now in my late years, it seems nothin has changed It was great for a while there and it was all going great The siren call from my laptop just too much to take Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me the time wasted before I get old One thing that I learnt in this long endless life Is deceit and lies and to cover it all up Car tyres are flat and rego run out Sittin like a pig in mud with no shower in sight I had it all… daughters…. And a faithful wife How did we live our best years and have nothin’ to share? Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me the time wasted before I get old One thing that I learnt in this long endless life Is deceit and lies and to cover it all up Alone with screen and my hand Thrashing the cold sheets in my unmade bed Surfing the net is just a band aid I can’t tear off Pounding the surf trying to stay afloat Give me wings to flee from this hell Give me time wasted before I get old If I could rise from this wave that I am on No more deceit or lies when I am alone
