Mortal
Don't need no alarm to get me out of bed
Decades of toil, my back screams out instead
The pain returns, at the days first light
Far more savage, than the feeling last night
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
A bang on the head, maybe a trip or a fall
You had your magic sponge, you never needed to call
You pop more pills now than you did in the nineties
Only this time around, they're to help for your bad knees
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
Those days, seemed to last forever
These days now, you have to be more clever
If the clocks could be turned, I would take more advice
Slow down and chill and maybe leave out the vice
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
Those days, seemed to last forever
These days now, you have to be more clever
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
Back in the day, never pay
Back in the day, never pay
Decades of toil, my back screams out instead
The pain returns, at the days first light
Far more savage, than the feeling last night
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
A bang on the head, maybe a trip or a fall
You had your magic sponge, you never needed to call
You pop more pills now than you did in the nineties
Only this time around, they're to help for your bad knees
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
Those days, seemed to last forever
These days now, you have to be more clever
If the clocks could be turned, I would take more advice
Slow down and chill and maybe leave out the vice
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
Those days, seemed to last forever
These days now, you have to be more clever
A coffee and fag, that was always the way
Back in the day, you never thought you'd pay
Back in the day, never pay
Back in the day, never pay
