Half Past Life

Half of almost everything is already past
Life included, nicely gone fast

Uh, now I sleep and then when I wake up
I’ll be half past life, yes
I’ll be half past life
So now I hurry up

Wish me if you wish, miss me if you must
Tomorrow or now, I’ll see what goes first

Oh, now I sleep and then when I wake up
I’ll be half past life, yes
I’ll be half past life
So now I hurry up

Hatchets buried, some brought to life
Many seen, saws hammers and knives

Ah, now I sleep and then when I wake up
I’ll be half past life, yes
I’ll be half past life
So now I hurry up

When I wake up, if I do
I’ll be half past life
Much older, older than ever known too
I’ll be half past life

I’ll be half past life
I’ll be half past life
