Last Waltz Lyrics - Beautiful South

Don't feel bad if you wake up feeling suddenly old 

More than realisation that you've let yourself be covered by mould 

Age is not something you wrap up if you're feeling the cold 

It's a laugh ten times harder at a joke eleven times told 

Down to the churchyard, check out the vaults 

Dig up the coffins, unscrew the bolts 

No better reminder, no strong enough salts 

To show this pitiful few that we've missed the last waltz 

That we've missed the last waltz

Don't feel bad if you're feeling past you sell-by date 

Like the roller coaster ride slowed down to a serious debate 

Oh, the whether you tell them, you're ready or whether you wait 

Does someone place a hand on your shoulder 

And point the way to the gate 

Down to the churchyard, check out the vaults 

Dig up the coffins, unscrew the bolts 

No better reminder, no strong enough salts 

To show this pitiful few that we've missed the last waltz 

That we've missed the last waltz

You don't count the birthdays 'til your out on your own 

They come thicker and faster and too damn late to postpone 

And wisdom's the last thing the scientists willing to clone 

Science advances, maturity dances alone 

Science advances, maturity dances alone
