Closing time

Paul had a hole in his pocket
Deep as the indian sea
Sue had a sore throat
And asked herself „who on earth could i be“

Systems fail and man
So all you can do
Is to do the best you can
To be honest and true

„Spreading the wealth“
Paul laughed reading the line
While Sue kept searching
A place she´d feel fine

Systems fail and man
So all you can do
Is to do the best you can
To be honest and true

The age comes to an end
It´s about closing time
While sue cries no
Paul still hopes for a dime

Did you already learn chinese
Do you know how to spell please
Are you familiar with raising cattle
Do you know how to loose a battle
Can you slow down on the interstate
Is it okay if you have to wait

Systems fail and man
So all you can do
Is to do the best you can
To be honest and true

Did you already learn chinese
Do you know how to spell please
Are you familiar with raising cattle
Do you know how to loose a battle
Can you slow down on the interstate
Is it okay if you have to wait

Systems fail as man
So all you can do
Is to do the best you can
To be upright and true

This is a song about the art of losing
