lyrics

What now, after all these years,
with failure piling up like bad architecture
in a house falling down?

A lesser man might have doubled over
and collapsed in pile of abject surrender.
Me? I just kept throwing myself into the fray.

Chorus: Johnny Case, or Peter Pan,
makes no difference who I am.
I'm no stranger to the borderland.
After all these years, who gives a damn?

... used to sit on the porch after dinner,
while Andy played his guitar,
strummin' a few of the good ol' tunes,
singing' to the crockets and the stars.

Chorus

What now, after all these years,
when the children are grown, and they think they know better?
A word to the wise falls on deaf ears.

A lesser man might have run for cover,
played it safe, no worse for wear.
Me? I'm just one more failure on the pile.

... this is where I pile on all the vocals ...
