Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

I'm lookin' round the corner

And I'm long in the tooth

Waiter, hey check please

In the corner booth

I'm feelin' rather long in the tooth

Time is a loser, boozer, schnoozer

He carried up and married up

A midwest hoosier

Coffee beans

Fax machines

Playin' like a schmoozer

He's gettin' rather long in the tooth

Oysterhead, Zeppelin Led

Shoulda heard what granny said

Paco de Lucia never seen a man like Flouncin' Fred

Wrapped up

Tapped out

Crapped on

Bled

He's feelin' rather long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

Mother Nature's greedy when

You're long in the tooth

You ain't afraid of dying

But you're terrified of youth

You must be gettin' rather

Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

If you're watchin' Price is Right

Then you're damn long in the tooth

I sold of my rebellion

For a pocket full of couth

'Cause I'm getting

Rather long in the tooth

Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"

Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"

Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"

Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"

Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth

Well I'll take mine dirty

With a splash of Vermouth

I kinda like bein' long in the tooth
