Lyrics

Well, I'm here looking through an old picture frame Just waiting for the perfect view I hope something special will step in to my life Another fine edition of you A pin-up done in shades of blue Cause sometimes you find a yearning for the quiet life The country air and all its joys But badgers couldn't compensate at twice the price For just another night with the boys, oh yeah And boys will be boys, will be boys They say love's a gamble, hard to win, easy lose And while sun shines you'd better make hay So if life is your table and fate is the wheel Then let the chips fall where they may In modern times, the modern way And as I was drifting past the Lorelei I heard those slinky sirens wail - whooo So look out, sailor, when you hear them croon You'll never been the same again, oh no Their crazy music drives you insane - this way So love, leave me, do what you will Who knows what tomorrow might bring? Learn from your mistakes is my only advice And stay cool is still the main rule Don't play yourself for a fool Too much cheesecake too soon Old money's better than new No mention in the latest Tribune And don't let this happen to you
