Forty-five Days 31

[Voice over] have you heard about Pete? ......

V1 Down the road same time every night

Same seat in the corner

The game is called play your cards right

They’re all hoping to Win tonight

RIFF] Forty-Five days is all that he’s got left

45 days - that what the doctor says

V2 The Drinking supposed to dull the pain

All the other guys names have been changed

Hand round the fags gotta keep in touch

The conversations not about much - but they know

CH He’s dying but he doesn’t want to go right now

He’s crying but boozing won’t save him now

He just wants Another taste of life

Ch2 Hes dying but he onlys asks to stick around

Keep trying for the miracle cure to be found

He onlys wants the sweet sweet taste of life

RPT RIFF] 45 days is all that he’s got left ....

V3 Throw the darts and add it all up

Get a pint and drink it all up

Theres his mates playing higher lower

Do the quiz though your mind is slower

It was 20 fags a day for 30 yrs

It’s all come at once confirming his fears

RPT CH1 He’s dying ......

RPT CH2 He’s dying ......

RPT Riff] 45 Days ....
