Can't they even remember When they had hopes And dreams?

Adolescence fled; the adolescents sang; while you -- you had no chance Then before you even knew your wife she got in line to be your first romance In the sunset of your best years you piled on the debt You think this can't be happening here -- not here, not now, not yet

You're gonna regret this. It's your big fall...

Well OK -- life's not what it used to be We're tryin' to become something that maybe wasn't meant to be We're now so totally up for grabs -- I hope someone's left to see Will the end justify the means? Well it beats the heck outta me

In the next round What will we be?
