Closing Time - The Cardigans

It’s closing time, and a well-known fact

Is that life is very short

It’s closing time says the band

And it seems that life is very short

The baker in town was fat as a cow

At the end of the day he ate all remains

The baker in town was murdered one day

An order was left of 200 pies

We’ve all got some vice

After closing time

So this is it!

The carnival is now heading for a new town

We hope you enjoyed the show

The party at gordon’s developed into a chaos

But the report says no one was hurt

And we’ve also heard that charley actually did solve the case

The gruesome killing of the bakerman

Finally, the clown left the circus to become a plumber

He says: «suits me just fine, and life is very fine

And this is closing time

It’s closing time, and a well-known fact

Is that life is very short

It’s closing time says the band

And it seems that life is very short

It’s closing time, and a well-known fact

Is that life is very short

It’s closing time says the band

And it seems that life is very short

La la la la, la la lalala

La la la la la la la

La la la la, la lalalalalala

La la la la la la la

La la la la, la la lalala

La la la la la la la

La la la la, la lalalalalala

La la la la la la la

La la la la, la la lalala

La la la la la la la

La la la la, la lalalalalala

La la la la la la la

Life — greatest of all

Life — strongest of all

But at the same time

Most delicate time

Could well end in a moment
