about
Track eleven from the album 'Number Two'. Veering unpredictably between serious social commentary, puerile toilet humour and B-movie worship, from breakneck thrash to pummelling death metal.
lyrics
Past it, has been, played out, greybeard
Feeling cold in my bones
I am no spring chicken
Heading straight for the knacker's yard
Always thirsty for a cup of tea
Cramping up foot and a swollen knee
When I get home I get a sudden urge to pee
All fun and games on the dark side of 40
Creeping upstairs earlier to bed
Strutting round town with negative street cred
Time half over but not half dead
Still got what it takes to get ahead
Crusty, old school, dated, grandad
Feeling contempt for youth
Sounding like an old man
Losing patience
I can't deny
It's a damn sight brighter on the dark side
I'm about to hit my stride
If you think it's over you can kiss my hide
Not gonna fall behind
Getting stronger standing on the dark side
It's been a heck of a ride
You'll never know if you never tried
Cut the brakes now we're over the hill
Can't fool us cos we're fuckin' red pill
Watch the clock, time does not heal
You're only as young as the woman you feel
Doctor wants to put his hand up my butt
Minor discomforts starting to add up
Can't stop now so I'll fill my cup
Trying to avoid turning into a grumpy old
-Fuck
I can't deny
It's a damn sight brighter on the dark side
For all the tears you cried
Can't stop now, my hands are tied
Not gonna fall behind
Getting stronger standing on the dark side
Cos now I've reached my prime
You'll never know if you never tried
Dark side of 40!
Feeling cold in my bones
I am no spring chicken
Heading straight for the knacker's yard
Always thirsty for a cup of tea
Cramping up foot and a swollen knee
When I get home I get a sudden urge to pee
All fun and games on the dark side of 40
Creeping upstairs earlier to bed
Strutting round town with negative street cred
Time half over but not half dead
Still got what it takes to get ahead
Crusty, old school, dated, grandad
Feeling contempt for youth
Sounding like an old man
Losing patience
I can't deny
It's a damn sight brighter on the dark side
I'm about to hit my stride
If you think it's over you can kiss my hide
Not gonna fall behind
Getting stronger standing on the dark side
It's been a heck of a ride
You'll never know if you never tried
Cut the brakes now we're over the hill
Can't fool us cos we're fuckin' red pill
Watch the clock, time does not heal
You're only as young as the woman you feel
Doctor wants to put his hand up my butt
Minor discomforts starting to add up
Can't stop now so I'll fill my cup
Trying to avoid turning into a grumpy old
-Fuck
I can't deny
It's a damn sight brighter on the dark side
For all the tears you cried
Can't stop now, my hands are tied
Not gonna fall behind
Getting stronger standing on the dark side
Cos now I've reached my prime
You'll never know if you never tried
Dark side of 40!
