Sasha stands in his yellow cafe

yes the heart of the city is here, so he tells me Sitting on his red leather sofa, he’s rolling another

Man, I’ll see you when I see you

Holly is set to be the next big thing

In her high heeled boots, and her two inch earrings

Heart of glass, Blondie, sings in her ear

You’re a rock queen honey and we all hear you!

Three minutes left to go, is this the end, then

Lucy had a hard time with love

But love recently chose the right time for Lucy

Loving when you know it’s the final time

She now holds time in her own mind

Yeah, Jimmy’s is the local for Michael

A Guinness in one hand, in the other a fable, able

I once asked are you a lonely man

His reply was non-commital, 'I am what I am'

Cry, Laugh, Feel love, These high moments,

And these are your four minutes.

(Counting down, four minutes, it’s a sound)

The final story is one of me,

Who with four minutes left has used up three

I think of you, I think of me Then I think of nothing, it’s the end you see, yeah!

With a four minute warning, a four minute warning…

I’m fading away, I’m fading away, if anybody wants to know…
