The Walkabouts - Last Tears lyrics

These are your last tears for the century Don't cry them for me These are your last tears, before the Party starts Don't throw them away Use em' wisely, use em' large Use em' soft, and use em' hard Once were flush but now we're skint as Bone Can ill-afford to waste our tears alone These are our last tears for this century Don't blame them on me This is our first, and surely, our last Attempt To earn what we've spent Set 'em up, and knock 'em back Lost in the stars, lost in the scraps Next century will never ask you why Cares not if you've come, or if you cried Last tears of the century They keep on comin' All the revolutions, they've been here and gone Missed everyone Except the one that we have, yet begun Missed everyone Spin in circles, till we're stung By every heart, and every gun Put the future behind us, until we see today Happiness can't buy ya' money, till we see today And the only thing that's left to do Is to see that they don't cover you ..... Last tears of the century
