Ready for Switzerland
I'm making my bucket list
Thinking about the life I missed
All the things I could have done
Now it's time, before I'm gone
You never know how long you'll last
Life is short, it goes too fast
Don't waste your time, make a plan
Taste the wine while you still can
I'm not waiting 'til it's too late
When my body's aching and I can't think straight
I'm not lying in a care home bed
Hanging on until I'm dead
I'm drawing a line in the sand
I'm getting ready for Switzerland
Swim with dolphins in a blue lagoon
Cross the desert in a hot air balloon
Ride white horses on a moonlit beach
Scuba diving on a coral reef
Fly to Rio for the carnival
Indian trek to the Taj Mahal
Monte Carlo, playing roulette
Route 66 in a red corvette
When I've got old timer's disease
Broken a hip and knackered my knees
I won't care if the money's all gone
So blow it now on having fun
I'm making my last stand
I'm getting ready for Switzerland
When it's finally time
Time to cross that line
I won't change my mind
I'll be fine
Chalet in the hills
Take the little pills
Watch the setting sun
Then I'm done
I'm going out on a high
A wild party to say goodbye
Glass of champagne in my hand
I'm drinking my way to Switzerland
I don't really need a Mercedes Benz
A younger lover and new best friends
I'm making the most of what I have
Spending the time with people I love
They know it's what I've planned
I'm getting ready for Switzerland
Einstein and William Tell
Mountain goats and cows with bells
Secret vaults and Nazi gold
Army knives and cheese with holes
Toblerones and cuckoo clocks
I'm coming home in a box
I've got a one way ticket
Getting ready
A one way ticket
Getting ready
A one way ticket
Thinking about the life I missed
All the things I could have done
Now it's time, before I'm gone
You never know how long you'll last
Life is short, it goes too fast
Don't waste your time, make a plan
Taste the wine while you still can
I'm not waiting 'til it's too late
When my body's aching and I can't think straight
I'm not lying in a care home bed
Hanging on until I'm dead
I'm drawing a line in the sand
I'm getting ready for Switzerland
Swim with dolphins in a blue lagoon
Cross the desert in a hot air balloon
Ride white horses on a moonlit beach
Scuba diving on a coral reef
Fly to Rio for the carnival
Indian trek to the Taj Mahal
Monte Carlo, playing roulette
Route 66 in a red corvette
When I've got old timer's disease
Broken a hip and knackered my knees
I won't care if the money's all gone
So blow it now on having fun
I'm making my last stand
I'm getting ready for Switzerland
When it's finally time

I've got a one way ticket
Getting ready
A one way ticket
Getting ready
A one way ticket
