about

Imagine someone giving advice to a random stranger while propping up a bar in a pub. This is his song.

lyrics

Take a seat – the load off your feet – so,
We'll talk of life and let the drink flow!
Give me time, as I gaze at you I'm
Reminded of a younger me.

Yes, I'm old, I've seen better days and
I'm sinking deeper into quicksand.
As I'm here, this moment in time, I
Will share the wisdom of an age.

I'll tell you secrets never told...
One for the road, just give me one for the road!
Guaranteed to make your blood run cold...
One for the road, just give me one for the road!

Never be conceited and cocksure;
Be just; remember to retain your
Gravitas; be loyal to your class;
Take heed of what your elders say!

Now I see I have your attention,
Let me tell you of my ascension:
Well, I came, I saw and I conquered
The lot. Oh, how the mighty fall!

I'll tell you secrets never told...
One for the road, just give me one for the road!
Guaranteed to make your blood run cold...
One for the road, just give me one for the road!

Hold it son:
You should never stop the fight until the fight is won.
Before you turn to go,
I feel there's something you should know...

I'll tell you secrets never told...
One for the road, just give me one for the road!
Guaranteed to make your blood run cold...
One for the road, just give me one for the road!
