lyrics

It's all very disappointing
There's more to life than tormenting your self
All we've got is this poor candle of reason
Looking forty one's not so bad when you're forty one
Step back, you've got the face you deserve
And that's the peddle stall we've acquired so quietly

It's all very disappointing
There's more to life than tormenting
It's all very disappointing
There's more to life than tormenting, tormenting yourself

Don't hold me back is pointless
When i sleep i sleep alone
Don't hold me back its pointless
When I fall I fall alone.

It's all very disappointing
There's more to life than having fun it's true
but even bush men have their bush man brew
Looking fifty two's not so bad when you're fifty two
Step back, you've got the body you deserve
And that's the peddle stall we've acquired so quietly

It's all very disappointing
There's more to life than tormenting
It's all very disappointing
There's more to life than tormenting, tormenting yourself

And I said don't hold me back is pointless
When i sleep i sleep alone
Don't hold me back its pointless
When I fall I fall alone, alone, alone, alone.
