Just admit the rotting tooth the truth
The grey of hearts won't let spring
Grass don't grow inside your memory
Eyes have never seen real green
Rubber gloves and plastic honesty
As a child I loved movies
Stamp my loyal card and keep the change
This is life this is love
And if history repeats itself
If I ever wear my old man's shoes
But I've never been to a war
But I've never seen behind that door
And if history repeats itself
If I ever wear my old man's shoes
But I've never been to a war
But I've never seen behind that door
Different landlords stolen land
Nothings really changed
And your brothers where are they
And you looked for their limbs
Washed that down with some good old gin
You became a toddler too
Now I get it my hair has grown
This is life this is love
And if history repeats itself
If I ever wear my old man's shoes
But I've never been to a war
But I've never seen behind that door
And if history repeats itself
If I ever wear my old man's shoes
But I've never been to a war
But I've never seen behind that door
