The Tale of Gurney Gridman

Lyrics for The Tale of Gurney Gridman

1 PM on a Monday The bottle shop opens at 2 It's sunny outside and all year I've been hiding I've just got an hour to get through Time is only a concept The past is only a thought Life is dull without meaning But drinking all day makes the future warm (Ah) (Ah) I won't say if a diamond looks rough But I'm not really looking for them much Unless they fall 'round me, I won't need to adjust Augment all and belong everywhere Like a sunset I wish I'd glow, glow (Ah) (Ah) (Ah) Isn't life strange, how It starts to make sense? You work it all out And then you get old and forget If there was a reason If there's still time Every old man tells me the same Live while you're young Enjoy each day Look after your neighbours And they'll look out for you Don't wait for the world to spin It's not waiting 'round for anyone There's no finish line, ticket sign Or button to start it all again Every old man tells me the same Live while you're young Enjoy each day
