The Ballad of Paul K.
He's drinking cold corona Feels like he's getting older now And noticing how he's finding Grey hairs left in the shower Tattoos fade by the hour and He can't understand these feelings Why life is getting him down He used to smile now he frowns and cries inside It's been this way for awhile and he can't seem to put things right When life has been unkind And you're losing your mind Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find Feels like times not on your side He doesn't like to mention Applying for his pension So his children don't know he's heading into a midlife crisis He can't afford the prices for the new kitchen floor he's buying He's been a drunk all his life Two kids, a dog and a wife He doesn't know And in the day time he just sits and watches television shows When life has been unkind And you're losing your mind Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find Feels like times not on your side You don't know why but some how The ones you love you hate now You feel down and blue Look at what you've thrown away They stood beside you all the way Now it's too late It's too late for you Back |
