Drowse (2011 Remaster)

Words and music by roger taylor

Its the sad eyed goodbye

Yesterdays moments I remember

Its the bleak street,week kneed partings I recall

Its the mistier mists the hazier days

The brighter sun and the easier lays

Theres all the more reason for laughing and crying

When youre younger and life isnt to hard at all

Its the fantastic drowse

Of the afternoon sundays

That bored you to rages of tears

The unending pleadings

To waste all your good times

In thoughts of your middle-aged years

Its the vertical hold all the things that youre told

For the everyday hero it all turns to zero

And theres all the more reason

For living or dying when youre young

And your troubles are all very small

Out here on the street wed gather and meet

And scuff up the sidewalk

With endlessly restless feet

Half on the time wed broaden our minds

More in the pool hall

Than we did in the school hall

With the down town chewing gum bums

Watching the night life the lights and the fun

Never wanted to be the boy next door

Always thought Id be something more

But it aint easy for a small town boy

It aint easy at all

Thinkin it right and doin it wrong

Its easier from an arm chair

Waves of alternatives wash over my sleepiness

Have my eggs poached for breakfast I guess

I think Ill be clint eastwood

Jimi hendrix he was good

Lets try william the conqueror

Now who else do I like?
