Rhatigan - Older текст песни

As the years go by
Policemen look younger
Clothes sizes smaller
Gin tastes better and better
Problems get bigger
Friendships grow deeper
Lovers drift further and further apart

I don't want to get older
Be left out in the cold in unfashionable clothes
With no hope just a joke among kids in the know
I don't want to get old

As the years go by
Families grow larger
Waistlines even further
Actions made safer and safer
Till nothing and no chance is left
And you're deeper and deeper in debt

I don't want to get older
Make a mess of what's left and have only regret
Short of breath short of sense short of luck and good sex
I don't want to get old

When once we would fight to the death
Now principles fall by the way
We fear failure and change
And there's no escape
Getting older

I don't want to get older
Be left out in the cold in unfashionable clothes
With no hope just a joke among kids in the know
I don't want to get old
I don't want to get older
Make a mess of what's left and have only regret
Short of breath short of sense short of luck and good sex
I don't want to get old
