From 2001:
Last time I saw you you were standing on the corner
Talking to your lover or maybe to your lawyer
With your head bowed down so low, what was it that you whispered
I turned away and you were gone I’m sorry to have missed ya

It’s times like this that really…take you by surprise
Holy Baloney baby, how time flies

Car ‘larm sounds in the middle of the night
Guys with guns and guys with knives jus’ achin’ for a fight
Switch-blades start a-flashin’, cop-cars lights a-flashin’,
Wasn’t that our Maggie’s boy I used to take out fishin’

It’s times like this that really…take you by surprise
Blimey O’Reilly baby, how time flies

How time flies
How time flies

One livin’ moment you was the apple of my eye
Next livin’ moment we was walking down the aisle
Baby one and baby two and cats and dogs and butterflies
Mobile phones and bankers loans crankin’ up before our eyes

It’s times like this that really… take you by surprise
Holy felloney baby, how time flies

Instrumental

Sinatra sings, Batman swings, do you remember way back when
The quarrymen and Zimmerman and Bill and Ben the Flowerpot men
Now it’s last-chance-dance-trance, bass ‘n drum and gangster-rap
Who’s that dude with Eminem, Holy Cow it’s Bacharach

It’s times like this that really…take you by surprise
Holy Malloney baby, how time flies, how time flies, how time flies...
