Last Half Hour lyrics

Stepping into the spotlight Made up and dressed for this special night Tongue tied, my heart’s beating fast Same jokes and tired laughs Rehearsed and fully prepared Lines learned but I’m feeling scared Dutch courage flows in my veins, needed more but the bottle is drained Switch on, switch on, dim the lights low Find the curtain, end of the show Went wrong too many times, missed cues, forgotten punchlines I was dumb my words wouldn’t flow Different time but the same old show My posters faded and torn, stage clothes hanging unworn And the queues they stretch around the block Sit at home with the radio on
