Close the World at Five - Jimmy Buffett

After all the time we’ve shared together

After all the cotton candy fun is gone

I’d like to go back to being my own person

So close the world at five and then go home

Watch the maze of people walking proudly

The parade is every day for no one’s eyes

It’s just a game with sides, not even chosen

So I’ll close the world at five and say goodbye

Call me cold, call me bad, call me weird, call me sad

The fact of the matter is I love you

Call me in, call me out, call me weird, call me doubt

But flattery is said to get you nowhere

So we’ll leave together out the back door

Through a street that’s never seen in night or day

We’ll walk along together through the canyon

So let’s close the world at five and go away

So let’s close the world at five and go away
