If... Lyrics - Return To The Last Chance Saloon - The Bluetones

If you 

Get out 

Before September 

Remember 

That I'm 

Still inside 

But I'm dry 

I'm dry 

And you 

When you try 

To make a difference 

You're so different 

And then I 

Try 

And just die 

I die 

You know 

That I need 

You more than I want ya 

But I want ya 

For all time 

So I 

I guess on the line 

It's all that I can do 

To sing these stupid songs to you 

I give up half my time 

Just trying to think up words that rhyme 

I ain't getting any younger 

But you wouldn't know 

So it's on 

With the show 

Sometimes 

A smoke 

A drink and a ponder 

Can work wonders 

When you're down 

Takes your frown 

Turns it 'round 

Around 

And you 

When you try 

To make a difference 

You're no different 

Than when I 

Try 

And just die 

I die 

And now 

That your day 

Dream is forgotten 

And forgiven 

And the world 

Has been saved 

Be brave 

It's all that I can do 

To sing these stupid songs to you 

I give up half my time 

Just trying to think up words that rhyme 

I ain't getting any younger 

But you wouldn't know 

'cause I walk 

In shadow 

And I never ever 

Really show my face 

But I'm only ever seen 

In the right place 

If you get out 

Before September 

Remember 

That I'm 

Still inside 

But I'm dry 

I'm dry 

And you 

When you try 

To make a difference 

You're so different 

And then I 

Try 

And just die 

I die 

You know 

That I need 

You more than I want ya 

But I want ya 

For all time 

So I 

I guess on the line 

It's all that I can do 

To sing these stupid songs to you 

I give up half my time 

Just trying to think up words that rhyme 

I ain't getting any younger 

But you wouldn't know 

So it's on 

With the show 

Sometimes 

A smoke 

A drink and a ponder 

Can work wonders 

When you're down 

Takes your frown 

Turns it 'round 

Around 

And you 

When you try 

To make a difference 

You're no different 

Than when I 

Try 

And just die 

I die 

And now 

That your day 

Dream is forgotten 

And forgiven 

And the world 

Has been saved 

Be brave 

It's all that I can do 

To sing these stupid songs to you 

I give up half my time 

Just trying to think up words that rhyme 

I ain't getting any younger 

But you wouldn't know 

'Cause I walk 

In shadow 

And I never ever 

Really show my face 

But I'm only ever seen 

In the right place
