Ben Watt - Young Man's Game lyrics

I'm not as good as I used to be At the late nights but just look at me I'm staking a claim in a young man's game tonight Is it something that my old heart fears Mistimed chances, lost years That means I'm taking aim at a young man's game tonight? One more chance to leave a mark Imagining the answer's in the dark Such a simple step into the smoke and the light tonight But who'd have thought I'd have turned this page? Should I act this out or act my age? Am I happy I came to the young man's game Where the bouncers know me by my name tonight? Oh, I could work this room, I could make some noise Let's hear it for the girls and for the boys For a moment we're the same in the young man's game tonight We're drinking Jaëgerbombs, but we're still on our feet Heroes in a wild conceit Fingering fame in the young man's game tonight But every mirror just tells the time Can you name a great fighter over forty-nine? I should douse my flame for the young man's game tonight Take off this paper crown And put these violins down And renounce my claim on the young man's game tonight
