[00:00.00]
[00:20.43]Ah, we're drinking and we're dancing
[00:22.91]And the band is really happening
[00:25.54]And the Johnny Walker wisdom running high
[00:29.92]And my very sweet companion
[00:32.61]She's the Angel of Compassion
[00:35.30]She's rubbing half the world against her thigh
[00:39.59]And every drinker, every dancer
[00:42.57]Lifts a happy face to thank her
[00:44.97]The fiddler fiddles something so sublime
[00:48.30]All the women tear their blouses off
[00:52.62]And the men they dance on the polka-dots
[00:55.29]And it's partner found, it's partner lost
[00:57.81]And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
[01:01.00]It's closing time
[01:05.69]Yeah, the women tear their blouses off
[01:08.55]And the men they dance on the polka-dots
[01:10.31]And it's partner found, it's partner lost
[01:11.77]And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
[01:15.73]It's Closing Time
[01:19.11]
[01:27.88]Ah, we're lonely, we're romantic
[01:30.83]And the cider's laced with acid
[01:32.96]And the Holy Spirit's crying, 'Where's the beef?'
[01:35.99]And the moon is swimming naked
[01:40.70]And the summer night is fragrant
[01:42.26]With a mighty expectation of relief
[01:45.21]So we struggle and we stagger
[01:49.81]Down the snakes and up the ladder
[01:52.60]To the tower where the blessed hours chime
[01:57.16]And I swear it happened just like this
[02:00.12]A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
[02:02.77]The Gates of Love they budged an inch
[02:05.34]I can't say much has happened since
[02:08.48]But Closing Time
[02:13.18]I swear it happened just like this
[02:15.62]A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
[02:17.74]The Gates of Love they budged an inch
[02:20.36]I can't say much has happened since
[02:24.17](I can't say much has happened since)
[02:25.78](I can't say much has happened since)
[02:28.27]But Closing Time
[02:32.16]Closing Time
[02:37.45]I loved you for your beauty
[02:40.10]But that doesn't make a fool of me
[02:42.41]You were in it for your beauty too
[02:47.79]And I loved you for your body
[02:50.26]There's a voice that sounds like God to me
[02:53.32]Declaring, declaring, declaring that your body's really you
[03:03.56]And I loved you when our love was blessed
[03:05.77]And I love you now there's nothing left
[03:07.89]But sorrow and a sense of overtime
[03:11.69]And I missed you since the place got wrecked
[03:15.46]And I just don't care what happens next
[03:17.90]Looks like freedom but it feels like death
[03:20.63]It's something in between, I guess
[03:22.98]It's Closing Time
[03:28.10]Yeah, I missed you since the place got wrecked
[03:30.70]By the winds of change and the weeds of sex
[03:36.14]Looks like freedom but it feels like death
[03:36.87]It's something in between, I guess
[03:39.31]It's Closing Time
[03:42.76]
[03:50.72]Yeah, we're drinking and we're dancing
[03:52.90]But there's nothing really happening
[03:55.31]And the place is dead as Heaven on a Saturday night
[03:58.25]And my very close companion
[04:02.12]Gets me fumbling, gets me laughing
[04:05.38]She's a hundred but she's wearing something tight
[04:09.95]And I lift my glass to the Awful Truth
[04:13.72]Which you can't reveal to the Ears of Youth
[04:15.70]Except to say it isn't worth a dime
[04:18.57]And the whole damn place goes crazy twice
[04:22.95]And it's once for the devil and once for Christ
[04:26.00]But the Boss don't like these dizzy heights
[04:28.86]We're busted in the blinding lights
[04:30.82]Of Closing Time
[04:36.46]The whole damn place goes crazy twice
[04:40.61]And it's once for the devil and it's once for Christ
[04:41.43]But the Boss don't like these dizzy heights
[04:43.44]We're busted in the blinding lights
[04:49.20]Busted in the blinding lights
[04:50.55]Of Closing Time
[04:55.39]Closing time
[04:59.97]Oh, the women tear their blouses off
[05:03.60]And the men they dance on the polka-dots
[05:05.93]It's Closing Time
[05:10.56]And it's partner found, it's partner lost
[05:16.10]And it's hell to pay when the fiddler stops
[05:16.70]It's Closing Time
[05:21.00]I swear it happened just like this
[05:23.10]A sigh, a cry, a hungry kiss
[05:25.64]It's Closing Time
[05:29.70]The Gates of Love they budged an inch
[05:33.97]I can't say much has happened since
[05:35.88]But Closing Time
[05:42.13]I loved you when our love was blessed
[05:43.48]I love you now there's nothing left
[05:45.85]But Closing Time
[05:51.57]I miss you since the place got wrecked
[05:53.48]By the winds of change and the weeds of sex
