Kieran Goss - Times Ain`t What They Used To Be слова песни
My auntie`s in the parlour sipping sherry from a paper cupAnd father`d bite your head off, he`s working up to nine o`clockSister`s only sixteen and she thinks she`s on the shelfAnd mother says don`t worry, you`ve always got your healthYou`ve always got your healthTimes ain`t what they used to be, but then they never wereLooking forward to the good old days in my rocking chairIf I knew ten years ago the things that I know nowI`d understand where and when and wonder why and howI`d understand where and when and wonder why and howAt three o`clock we`d hear the bell, it never rang before it`s timeTo the back seat of the bus, making faces at the cars behindJoin the conversation, but we never had the nerveChildren should be seen they said, and never should be heardShould be seen and never heardI fell in love at seventeen, both of us mature and wiseCouldn`t put two words together, but I thought the sun shone from her eyesEnded at the altar when I took the wedding vowWent running to the mirror, saw the wrinkles on my browSaw the wrinkles on my browI gave up on religion for the better, maybe for the worseAvoiding Father Murphy, his blessings always were a curseLife was getting colder so I bought a winter coatAnd jumped off the nearest bridge, what a time to learn to floatWhat a time to learn to floatThere`s a bad girl down the street and she is standing by the factory gateShe said she`d fall in love some day, but up til then she`d have to waitSettle for a husband and a family saloonAnd 2.7 children and collecting Mills & BoonCollecting Mills & Boon
