Lyrics:

21 years I'm in Berlin 
All my friends have taken off including him
No they don't exist, no they don't exist
Turns out a place is just a setting 
A backdrop to the company you're with

26 years I'm renting now 
Room mate seems alright 
But he has this funny smell about him
Not sure about Glyn 
And I've asked the landlord nice 
But he's, ignored me twice 

Oh but rules were made to disobey
Listen to your younger self 
Go out and play 

35 and I'm still alone 
Had a lot of kisses but haven't held on to one 
Held on to one 
Tell me I'm a cynic but love we aren't done 

44 I've moved to Spain 
Thought I'd focus on my Spanish 
Get it back again 
Before I get too old 
So I've been told 
Plus the weather's so much hotter 
And the people never bother you 

Oh but rules were made to disobey
Listen to your younger self 
Go out and play 

59 had a whale of a time 
Booked myself a cruise 
Across pacific blue oceans 
With mixed emotions
But I found me a man and we call him captain Sam 

At 72 I lost my best friend 
Puts things in perspective 
And now I see the end is coming soon 
For me too, take no day for granted 
Now I know it's true 

Oh but rules were made to disobey
Listen to your younger self 
Go out and play 

88 I'm being eaten alive 
Brother sister at my side 
All they do is pray but I know it's time know it's right 
What has it all been for 
Is the last question on my mind
