lyrics

Sometimes
You feel like the fool of the world
On his flying ship.
The fool of the world
Could not be turned back
By callous words.

Those boy-men.
They're 25 in the morning,
45 in the afternoon.
Those boy-men.
They're 45 in the afternoon
And old in the evening.

Even Jonah fair
Was swallowed by a whale
And lost his way.
Though it was dark in there
He pulled up a chair
And wiled the time away.

Those boy-men.
They're 25 in the morning,
45 in the afternoon.
Those boy-men.
They're 45 in the afternoon
And old in the evening.
