I wanna fly a Spitfire in the RAF
I wanna drink tea at the dail house with cra**
If I'm shaking like a leaf, or sturdy as a tree
My famous last words are gonna be these:
I tried, oh yeah I tried
I tried, oh yeah I tried
Of man there's no excuse, he carries his own noose
You can believe your own lies but you better get wise
He sets his demon street on the landing on the sea
His famous last words are gonna be these:
I tried, oh yeah I tried
I tried, oh yeah I tried
And when you're younger you wanna look older
And when you're older you wanna look younger
But don't harden yourself to your fate
There's nothing to negotiate
Well I've got a door that won't open no more
A clock on the wall that on borrowed time
A rope not long enough to hang yourself with
My famous last words go something like this:
I tried, oh yeah I tried
I tried, oh yeah I tried
