(Browne/Glenister/Maitland)
Looking back
You can lie if you like
But it's just sad to see you
Wasting so much time
It's a hole
Whether you are half or whole
It's a hole no matter which side out you fly
CHORUS
Cup of life
Drink it dry
Getting old before your time
There's nothing new you should try
Cup of life drink it dry
Getting older in your mind
It's only in your mind
Well my friend
It seems they got you in the end
Remember when you thought
This hour would not arrive
And in your face
Where once you saw amazing
There's a sign now that's just screaming I'm alive
CHORUS
If you take these words
Though it seems absurd
Now it seems like fun
But you'll be
Crying in your soup
For the things you've never done
Yes you will !
