Blue Amber - Old Breed, Pt. II

In the moonlight glare
Red sign says:
Enter with caution

An intoxicated stare
Voice hardens with every step
Father kicked
Him in the mother's womb.

Handsome hero, platitudes worn on his sleeve. The girls he could never have in his past cross paths like nostalgia. Laughs over the same tired joke every fifth day of the week. Gimme that ol' time feeling, gimme that time ol' time religion.
You didn't see what was outside of these four walls, but you finally won the award for best dressed. Broke the heart of the girl who has wanted a baby since she was 15 years old. What did that sign say? - once more, with feeling! Once more, with feeling!

Everybody wants high society is what I'm told by people who scream in my face. I love romance on the dance floor, especially at my own expense. I guess we'll see how it plays out on your wedding day - once more, with feeling! Once more, with feeling!

It's 10PM
And there you are
Do you know
Where your children are?

It's 10PM
And there you are
Do you know
Where your children are?

KEEP THE FRONT DOOR UNLOCKED
LEAVE THE LAMP ON FOR ME
IMMERSED IN A CHAOTIC OPERA
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING

LOOK AT THE STRUT OF THE LOCAL BOYS
THEY WOULDN'T TOUCH YOU NOW
BUT THE MEMORY OF THEIR SPIT ON YOUR CLOTHES IS ALL TOO FRESH
FANTASTIC FANTASIES OF A SMALL TOWN

LET'S PRETEND YOU WEREN'T THE WORST
YOU'RE NOT A THOUGHT I'D LIKE TO KEEP
I'LL GIVE YOU A SMILE AND LAUGH ALONG
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING

ABANDON ALL HOPE THOSE WHO ENTER
AND BE READY TO SUCCUMB
SHROUDED IN THE LOCAL MELODRAMA
IS WHAT YOUR LIFE HAS NOW BECOME

GIMME THAT OL' TIME FEELING
THE CANNED LAUGHTER AMPLIFIED
VARIOUS SPECIES GROUPED ACCORDINGLY
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING
ONCE MORE, WITH FEELING

THE FORMER SPORT STARS AND FANTASISTS
THE LOST
THE LEFT BEHIND
THE ELITE
THE BACK OF THE CLASS
THE COMFORT SEEKERS
THE INTELLECTUALS
THE NEW GENERATION
THE IDOLS
THE OLD BREED

The Old Breed.
