All in all I want you to know I've been thinking of you You were a star you always stole the show Booze and cigarettes too And I remain for reasons that aren't clear Declare old recollections like I care Searching high and low everywhere I go For some abandoned trust that isn't there Well you checked out, a long time ago Washing down that bitter pill Strewn fables of a legend we all know I always have and I always will But now I'm glad to see the back of you Broken down hero wherever you go I'm glad to see the back of you You can flog that dead horse on your way Out the door Haul away to some old and distant shore Haul away where they speak of you no more Oh no more Tonight we tear this whole place down And raise a glass to me and you You were a star you always stole the show Booze and cigarettes too
