Long In The Tooth

Long in the tooth
Long in the tooth
I'm lookin' round the corner
And I'm long in the tooth

Waiter, hey check please
In the corner booth
I'm feelin' rather long in the tooth

Time is a loser, boozer, schnoozer
He carried up and married up
A midwest hoosier

Coffee beans
Fax machines
Playin' like a schmoozer
He's gettin' rather long in the tooth

Oysterhead, Zeppelin Led
Shoulda heard what granny said
Paco de Lucia never seen a man like Flouncin' Fred

Wrapped up
Tapped out
Crapped on
Bled

He's feelin' rather long in the tooth

Long in the tooth
Long in the tooth
Mother Nature's greedy when
You're long in the tooth
You ain't afraid of dying
But you're terrified of youth
You must be gettin' rather
Long in the tooth

Long in the tooth
Long in the tooth
If you're watchin' Price is Right
Then you're damn long in the tooth

I sold of my rebellion
For a pocket full of couth
'Cause I'm getting
Rather long in the tooth

Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"
Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"
Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"
Stompin' Tom says "Hey, hi, heave, hi, ho"

Long in the tooth
Long in the tooth
Long in the tooth
Long in the tooth
Well I'll take mine dirty
With a splash of Vermouth
I kinda like bein' long in the tooth
