this is almost semi auto-biographical, baswed on life in a band trying to make a dime round the bars whilst still trying to hit the big time.

The times of our lives
Those Sussex boys that play in bars
With rusty strings on old guitars
That live their lives inside a song
Might miss a beat but don’t go wrong
In their own world
And no one can take that away
The mysteries inside their minds
Are written down in rhyme
Don’t matter if it don’t make sense
It all makes sense with time
In their own world
No one can take that away
It aint the fame they do it for
It used to be not any more
It’s all about just getting by
And taking of their plain disguise
These are the times of our lives
These are the times of our lives, our lives,
Our lives, our lives, our lives
Time rolls on and age it seems
Embedded in the same old jeans
That wear too thin around the knees
And ripped just like their cowboy dreams
It’s still their world
And no one can take that away
Might not have rolled the tumbling dice
That Mick and Keith had found
Or been the last man standing
Jon and Richie wrote about
But it’s still their world
And no one can take that away
They might just make it in the end
And call the world their weary friend
Cos a fire still burns inside old souls
Who have paid their dues to Rock n Roll
These are the times of our lives
These are the times of our lives, our lives,
Our lives, our lives, our lives
