Lyrics

For all you dirty crooks out there
[Instrumental]
Forgot to get old
Forgot to get old
Forgot to get old, get it on time
Forgot to get old, get it on time
Forgot to get old
Tight
Rope walkin' to the other side
To the light, yeah
Where no one really ever dies
Where no one really ever dies
Oh, sweet oblivion, dear child
And we were so very young and wild
Forgot to get
Forgot to get
[Instrumental]
Forgot to get old
Forgot to get old
Forgot to get old, get it on time
Forgot to get old, get it on time
Forgot to get old
Why?
Your chromosomes, they don't lie
So you buy
Yourselves an extra XYXY
Oh, sweet oblivion, dear child
And we were so very young and wild
Forgot to get (Time)
Forgot to get (Get it on time)
Forgot to get (Get it on time)
Forgot to get old (Get it on time)
Forgot to get old (Get it on time)
Forgot to get old (Get it on time)
Forgot to get old (Get it on time)
Forgot to get old, get it on time
Get it on time
Get it on time
