Closing Time

The band Semisonic don't really seem to have made number 1 hits a regular occurrence but remain consistent over the years. I expect that this might have been their greatest hit. But I guess all we really need is that one song.

Today's tune is Beerday inspired. While rather sombre in tune as it would always be when last round is called, it is the last line that really strikes a chord. Things can only ever really start because something else came to an end. I guess that's the point, reaching closing time what you do after that, well is entirely up to you.

Closing time
Open all the doors and let you out into the world
Closing time
Turn all of the lights on over every boy and every
girl
Closing time
One last call for alcohol so finish your whiskey or
beer
Closing time
You don't have to go home but you can't stay here

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home

Closing time
Time for you to go out to the places you will be from
Closing time
This room won't be open till your brothers or your
sisters come
So gather up your jackets, move it to the exits
I hope you have found a friend
Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other
beginning's end

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home

Closing time
Time for you to go out to the places you will be from

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home

I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
I know who I want to take me home
Take me home

Closing time
Every new beginning comes from some other
beginning's end

Today only get's to begin because yesterday came to an end.
