lyrics
How long do you have to wait?
how much wine does it take
to bury all the heart attacks
and to fix all the mistakes
Maybe it is time to do a little yoga
take a pilates class or two
Something for my spirit
maybe a new hairdo
Have you done Vipassana?
Lived thirteen days of pain
When you are lost and 49 years old
They make you believe you can begin again
There’s nothing new,
there’s nothing new
when you’re getting old
Maybe it is time for swinging
Its never too late
So you go with her to hipster bars
Hang around like you’ve come to pick up your son
So you go with her
Looking like Kris Kristofferson
How long do you have to wait?
Here’s that girl you liked when
you were twenty years old
She’s still looking pretty good
Here’s that girl you liked
still hanging in the same hood
She’s still looking pretty good
still hanging in the same hood
So you go with her to hipster bars
Hang around like you’ve come to pick up your son
So you go with her
Looking like Kris Kristofferson
And clearly not having any fun…
You ain’t got no dreams to throw away
They all disappeared long ago
At least you got a wide screen tv
And a brand new retro stereo
When you turn fifty
You can retire to Thailand that’s your goal
Just drink beer all day in the hot sun
At night watch young girls
dance
around poles
