To working placements and holidays

C# stolen kiss in the lavatory
C Dm F
She shuts her eyes and says “Miss me, miss me”
C Em
She’s fat loose and fancies me
Em A# F
But she’s hanging off a barman of forty three
C Em
And he dribbles in her ear, she giggles and grins
A# F
She knows she loves her father but she can’t imagine doing it with him
C Dm F Dm
Now or never, it’s so damn clever

To their love anthem

And he says “Darling how could I be, when you were born I was twenty three
C Em A# F
And married in love, like a stallion in stud
F Em
And now I weave this network of fibs
A# F
And I write a mid-life pantomime, you’re younger than my kids.”

‘Cos he’s fallen in love

With the man he was back then
Em
Would it ever be enough
A#

C Dm
And it’s now or never
F Dm
She has a picture of them together
C Dm
She says stuff like “Life’s a game.”
F
She has a locker room story
Em C Dm
But the boys are getting older every day
F Dm C Dm F Em Dm C
The boys are getting older every day….
