I was born in '67 The year of "Sgt. Pepper" And "Are You Experienced" Into a suburb of heaven Yeah it should have been forever It all seemed to make so much sense But after a while you realise time flies And the best thing that you can do Is take whatever comes to you 'Cause time flies She said luck is all you make it You just reach out and take it Now let's dance a while She said nothing ever happens If you don't make it happen And if you can't laugh then smile But after a while you realise time flies And the best thing that you can do Is take whatever comes to you 'Cause time flies
And laughing under summer showers Is still the way I see you now How does time break down? With no marker, things slow down A conference of the strange And your family is deranged I could tell you what I'm thinking While we sit here drinkin' But I'm not sure where to start You see there's something wrong here I'm sorry if I'm not clear Can you stop smoking your cigar? But after a while you realise time flies And the best thing that you can do Is take whatever comes to you 'Cause time flies And the coat you wore to Alton Towers Is still the way I see you now
