Lyrics
Last Half Hour
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Stepping into the spotlight
Made up and dressed for this special night
Tongue tied, my heart’s beating fast
Same jokes and tired laughs
Rehearsed and fully prepared
Lines learned but I’m feeling scared
Dutch courage flows in my veins, needed more but the bottle is drained
Switch on, switch on, dim the lights low
Find the curtain, end of the show
Went wrong too many times, missed cues, forgotten punchlines
I was dumb my words wouldn’t flow
Different time but the same old show
My posters faded and torn, stage clothes hanging unworn
And the queues they stretch around the block
Sit at home with the radio on
