The Ballad of Paul K

He's drinking cold Corona
Feels like he's getting older
Now and noticing how he's finding
Gray hairs left in the shower
Tattoos fade by the hour
And he cant understand these feelingsWhy life is getting him down
He used to smile now he frowns
And cries inside
It's been this way for a while
And he cant seem to put things rightWhen life has been unkind
And youre losing your mind
Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find
Feels like times not on your sideHe doesnt like to mention
Applying for his pension
So his children don't know he's heading
Into a mid-life crisis
He can't afford the prices for
The new kitchen floor hes buyingHe's been a drunk all his life
Two kids, a dog and a wife
He doesnt know
And in the daytime
He just sits and watches television showsWhen life has been unkind
And youre losing your mind
Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find
Feels like times not on your sideDont know why but somehow
The ones you love you hate now
You feel down and blue
Look at what you've thrown away
They stood beside you all the way
Now it's too late, it's too late for youWhen life has been unkind
And youre losing your mind
Look in the mirror afraid of what you'll find
Feels like times not on your side
