lyrics

Luke warm drink
should be cold
watching the waves
No conception
of growing old
plenty of time to waste
Stopped off
for fish and chips
eatin' like kings
Server
was looking good but
she didn’t like how we sing

Late to the show
summer afternoon
Forgot the words
played out of tune
Late to the show
day in the sun
Down the stage
ran a river of rum

Mind feels right
driving home
not a care in the world
Scenic route
on two lane roads
thinkin' about girls
Three hours
since a glance at a clock
and the opener's getting warm
No practice
in a week in a half
and I cant even strike a chord

Late to the show
summer afternoon
Forgot the words
played out of tune

Late to the show
day in the sun
Down the stage
ran a river of rum

Show up
whenever we want
on top of the world
Good friends
couldn’t look at us
still a little hurt
It was a mess
but what can we say
we didn’t start no fight
We had the best
excuse in the book
it was a hard days night

Late to the show
summer afternoon
Forgot the words
played out of tune
Late to the show
day in the sun
Down the stage
ran a river of rum
