Lyrics

From early in life he knew that life would be a trap
From which most of us wouldn’t take it light
Life’s a choice, that’s what he chose, this long-coated man
Many came and many went, he wouldn’t change this long-coated man

Memories sealed with fear, fear of growing old
This didn’t affect our long-coated man
He made his choice when lifestyle and himself became one
Life’s like a prize if you play your cards right

For some broken promises become their lives, lives that shall never come back
Sweet as honey, cruel like time, life tore him apart and life brought him back
something he knew, all right

Good times will fade away, will fade away as the bird does not stay
You long-coated man, long-coated man, long-coated man

Life’s not kind at all when you give and you trust
people simply turn their backs
People laugh and joke, what they don’t know is that life shall engulf us
Realizing there’s not turning back

True to his feelings, he did what he felt like
No one like him, no one like that
Life shall take this old, worn, happy, long-coated man

Say we didn’t warn you, say we didn’t tell
Life will take us all, life shall take him
Our long-coated man, no more growing young
That’s the same for this old, worn, happy, long-coated man
