Lyrics

Before Your Time
The whiskey is a dear dear friend of mine
I love all my addictions, like to keep them by my side
I’m comfortably dysfunctional, I know no other life
In the town where you grow old before your time

I’m headin down to the bookies once again
If my horse comes in at 10 /1, I’ll be feelin fine
Set me up for another day, of drinkin beer and wine
In the town where you grow old before your time

(Chorus)
It’s too late, for getting out (changing now)
It’s too late, there’s only one way down
It’s too late, I’m used to it now (I’m doin comfortably fine)
In the town where you grow old before your time

The state the system sedates you, society I’ve dropped out
It will numb you and kill the dreams you had, when you were a child
Gotta wake up kid, don’t do what I did, or life will pass you by
In the town where you grow old before your time

The Guiness is a dear old friend of mine
I love all my addictions, like to keep them near my side
I’ll bum another cigarette, another doobie to get me high
In the town where you grow old before your time
