He died so fast
that he drilled a hole
He filled it in with a curtain pole

Guys like him never count their cost
And oh, now that things have changed
And heart is soft,

And he goes where the old boys go,
where the old boys go
To watch the sun at the end of the summer
Now the years have passed,
and strong is weak
And if you don't care if anyone knows

An d he goes where the old boys go
Where the old boys go
To watch the sun at the
end of the summer
And where the old boys go

the sun at the end of the summer?
When will the emperors come to watch
the sun at the end of
