Middle of July 
Nineteen-eighty-two 
Standing on a corner 
With nothing much to do 
Talking with Cecilia 
In nineteen-eighty-five 
Glad to still be breathing 
Glad to be alive 

Where's all the time 
Nineteen-ninety-one 
Change on the dresser 
Bed is still undone 
What's a weary man to do 
In nineteen-ninety-four 
Hear the front bell ringing 
But no one's at the door 

Oh yeah 
Oh yeah 
Oh yeah 

Who's gonna know 
When all is said and done 
That a boy was born to Rita 
In nineteen-sixty-one 
And lived a hundred years 
By nineteen-ninety-six 
Who's ever gonna notice 
That it all came down to this 

Oh yeah 
Oh yeah 
Oh yeah 

Oh yeah 
Oh yeah 
Oh yeah
