There are twenty years to go

Twenty ways to know

Who'll wear

Who'll wear the hat



There are twenty years to go

The best of all I hope

Enjoy the ride

The medicine show



* Then the breaks

For we design our fakes

We need to concentrate on more than meets the eye



There are twenty years to go

The faithful and the low

The best of starts, the broken heart, the stone



There are twenty years to go

The punch-drunk and the blow

The worst of starts, the mercy part, the foam



[Repeat *]



Then the breaks

Before we design our fates

But it's you I take cos you're the truth, not I



There are twenty years to go

A golden age I know

But all will pass and end too fast you know



There are twenty years to go

And many friends I hope

Though some may hold the rose

Some hold the rope



That's the end - and that's the start of it

That's the whole - and that's the part of it

That's the high - and that's the heart of it

That's the long - and that's the short of it

That's the best - and that's the test in it

That's the doubt - the doubt, the trust in it

That's the sight - and that's the sound of it

That's the gift - and that's the trick in it



** You're the truth, not I

You're the truth, not I

You're the truth, not I

You're the truth, not I



[Repeat **]
