Did you see the old man coming
did you see him passing by
did you listen to his footsteps
see the twinkle in his eye
Listen to him, listen well
happens all too fast
like a spell
Some say you've seen the daylight
and you know just where you stand
did you think you've got the answer
take a look at that old man
See him come, see him go
never last too long
(because it's) nothing's right, nothing's wrong
it all comes down to the same old song
So when you see the old man's smiling
did this only cause his pound
but we're all in it together
it's the only show in town
See him come, see him go
never last too long
(because it's) nothing's right, nothing's wrong
it all comes down to the same old song
