The Steady Slowing Down of the Heart

歌詞

Moonlight shines on you and me Guides the sailors back from the sea You try sleeping, but All that you hear is The steady slowing down of my heart It's not that you get lazy It's not about getting old It's not that you get up in the morning wishing you'd never woke The car I drive was built to last It does not go particularly fast I'm in no great hurry Is that the cause or the effect of The steady slowing down of my heart? It's not that I got lazy It's not about getting old It's just that there's no miracle cure For getting used to someone Now, Jimmy spends a fortune Because he's down to twice a week His shrink says A crisis in mid-life is only natural Julie got a facelift You know, she's only 33 Jesus... May I give thanks for Brigitte Bardot? Moonlight shines on you and me Guides the sailors back from the sea As I lie sleeping Am I silent or do you hear The steady slowing down of my heart? It's not that you get lazy It's not about getting old It's not that you get up in the morning wishing you'd never woke Julie was aroused by Jimmy's lack of self esteem Her shrink said When a man takes a mistress, it's often helpful Jimmy asked for help and she was happy to oblige His shrink said Guess this was a bad year to quit smoking
