Dodgy - Long Life lyrics

Jack you've spreading round for so long, now I'm so tired The only thing you can go and do is get yourself fired And with your pay cheque, just like the last one When tonight's through it will be gone and so will I This is been a long life, now mine is nearly through I've had a lot of time to think now I must speak to you Tell me am I dreaming as I look around We can't afford a descent life for those with their feet on the ground I feel it my duty to try and pa** it on This wisdom I've acquired.. I understand the nature of life As well as any soul left living As well as any man still alive you said there's an answer for a hundred years or two it came in a dream one night, wisdom only comes to a few This is been a long life now mine is nearly through And if I'd have the my again, I'd spend it all with you I feel it my duty to try and pa** it on This wisdom I've acquired.. I understand the nature of life As well as any soul left living As well as any man still alive Dreams exist in dreamland, my pa**ion fails to show My eyes no longer sparkle, desire begins to slow Comfort peace slips beyond my imagination It's your life they demand for little appreciation It's all well and good when it's understood, we can beat them if we try It's all well and good when it's understood, we can beat them if we try This is been a long life, now mine is nearly through I've had a lot of time to think now I must speak to you This is been a long life now mine is nearly through And if I'd have my time again I'd spend it all with you Everyone will be together to hear the word to the wise
