lyrics

OLD AGE, HARD WAYS


Q.R.D :
Well folks as you can see for yourself
the way this CD is progressing :
TIME IS AN INFLICTION

You’ve let me down so many times before
Just when the going got real tough
Left me high and dry with nothing more
than patent promises of fluff
One day you’ll wake up and you’ll miss me
and you’ll wonder where I’ve gone
By then it’s too late, I’m in heaven
Much too happy to feel crappy

Well, old age - hard ways
Over here there’s no need for crying
Old age - hard ways, just relax we all end up dying

Ain’t no use to dwell on right and wrong
I’ve learned my lesson in your hell
The only truth that’s worth believing in
is the one you live to tell
Someday you’ll wake up from a nightmare
and you’ll wish I was around
By then it’s too late, I’m in heaven
laughing at your staid existence

Well, old age - hard ways
Over here there’s no need for crying
Old age - hard ways, just relax we all end up dying

We all end up dying, so there’s no need for crying
No No No...

Q.R.D filosofizes :
“Now a quick glance at your erratic behavior tells me you’re an absurd time delineating apparatus that operates out of fear and frustration
due to the lack of vision regarding the conceptual continuity of this life
or the possibility of any other”...

Outside your own space for a moment
you’ll be confronted with some doubt
Perhaps you’re rule book got it backwards
Life is death and death is living

Well, old age - hard ways
Over here there’s no need for crying
Old age - hard ways , just relax, that’s the point of dying
Old age - hard ways
Over here there’s no need for crying
Old age - hard ways,
Just relax we all end up dying
We all end up dying, so there’s no need for crying
It’s just a change - just a change..
