Lyrics

Prizefighters when they're still in their prime Russian novels when you find the time Cats sleeping in a patch of sun Go buy candy and a currant bun Do you know how short the days are? Do you know how short the days are? Shot-stopping in the five-on-four House speakers pumping four to the floor The scene right before the surface cracks Dusty paperbacks Do you know how short the days are? No, you don't When they're gone, will you be ready? No, you won't Knuckleballers when they're deep in the zone Loosening the sword from the stone Three notes, and I can name that tune Ice cream tastes good in the afternoon Do you know how short the days are? Do you know how short the days are? Do you know how short the days are?
