"Last Call For The Truth" lyrics

"Last Call For The Truth"

Sitting over here in the corner booth
Hanging on to another green bottle
Give me one more taste of my lost youth
Then it's last call for the truth

Used to see a lot of friendly faces
All my friends every night of the week
Celebrating our lack of social graces
Staying true to our ragtag mystique

Give me one more song to sing along to
Give me one more dance to hold you through
Give me one more taste of my lost youth
And it's last call for the truth
It's last call for the truth

I've seen what happens when you stay too long
But I guess I never get the memo
I always have to hear the last song
Before Johnny on the jukebox says go home

Now it's time to take the last cab home
To my little place just up the street
Because the night ain't so young anymore
It's just another ride in the backseat

Give me one more song to sing along to
Give me one more dance to hold you through
Give me one more taste of my lost youth
And it's last call for the truth it's last call for the truth

Every night it's the same
Have I given away my better days?
Have I given up the game?
Will I ever change my ways?

Give me one more song to sing along to
Give me one more dance to hold you through
Give me one more taste of my lost youth
And it's last call for the truth
It's last call for the truth
