Closing Time
Get your billfold out
It's time to settle up
S'hard to twist & shout
In this goddamn town
They tried to bury you
But you still in the groove
Nothing more to prove
Wearing comfortable shoes
It's closing time
One time around is enough
'Cos around closing time
Old times are just a bust
You did your twenty years
Lent your helpin' hand
Now thru those golden years
You have to make a stand
They spun you every yarn
And filled you full of hope
Gave you sweet nothing at all
But this goddamn rope
Now September's here
And I'm ready to fall
All my hopes and fears
Mean nothing at all
Now I can finally admit it
Sometimes I phoned it in
Sure I'd change everything
If I could do it again
It's closing time
One time around is enough
'Cos around closing time
Old times are just a bust
It's time to settle up
S'hard to twist & shout
In this goddamn town
They tried to bury you
But you still in the groove
Nothing more to prove
Wearing comfortable shoes
It's closing time
One time around is enough
'Cos around closing time
Old times are just a bust
You did your twenty years
Lent your helpin' hand
Now thru those golden years
You have to make a stand
They spun you every yarn
And filled you full of hope
Gave you sweet nothing at all
But this goddamn rope
Now September's here
And I'm ready to fall
All my hopes and fears
Mean nothing at all
Now I can finally admit it
Sometimes I phoned it in
Sure I'd change everything
If I could do it again
It's closing time
One time around is enough
'Cos around closing time
Old times are just a bust
