| South of the Border I know a freaky young lady Name of Cocaine Katie She makes my temperature freeze Shes got a blood red powder When she gives a shout She'll bring you to your knees Well we were being clever playing God games forever She said she only meant to please But i'm someone's brother, got a father and a mother You know I'm going to have to leave South of the border I think you oughta South of the border I think you oughta (Chorus) Cos you know you're gonna have to leave To a place where you can breathe And you know there's no reprieve There'll be tears on leaving But there won't be no grieving Cos a city soon forgets To me its magic To the landlord it's tragic He's got another room to let There'll be the same old faces in the same old places Where my youth was well misspent But I tow the line and move the time To a town called 'No Regrets; South of the border I think you oughta South of the border I think you oughta (Repeat chorus to fade) |

| Old Before I Die She's taking me places I should never have been She's showin' me faces I should never have seen Well these are strange days We're livin' in today C'est la vie I say (Chorus) I hope I'm old Before I die I hope I live to relive The days gone by I hope I'm old before I die But tonight i'm gonna Live for today So come along for the ride I hope I'm old Before I die She's not feeling stable She's unable to breathe Her heart's beating faster So i'll ask her to leave These are strange days We're livin' in today Am I straight or gay I hope I'm old Before I die I hope I live to see the day The Pope gets high I hope I'm old before I die Well tonight i'm gonna Live for today So come along for the ride I hope I'm old Before I die Well these are strange days We're livin' in today C'est la vie I say, I say (Chorus) I hope I'm old before Old before I die Old before Old before I die Old before I die |
