Charlie’s Back! Lyrics by The Liptonians

The Liptonians

2008

[Opening]
Charlie's back and yeah he's ready to play
Used to have something of him out in the day
The crowd would roar when he swung the bat
Got a tattoo on his arm, says Charlie Attack
[Chorus]
Used to run around with the kids at noon
Now he's got a job at the greasy spoon
Washing all the dishes for the night to come
Been thirty years but the night is young
On the weekends he gets to paint the lines
White chalk dust makes him cough sometimes
But Charlie's not too late
[Bridge]
Gonna leave mom's couch, gonna move down the street
Turn off the rock radio and turn on the CBC
Gonna do grade twelve, gonna find me a girl
Take her out and show her my world
[Chorus]
Used to run around with the kids at noon
Now he's got a job at the greasy spoon
Washing all the dishes for the night to come
Been thirty years but the night is young
On the weekends he gets to paint the lines
White chalk dust makes him cough sometimes
But Charlie's not too late
[Interlude: (Overlapping voices)]
(Charlie's back?! Oh! CHARLIE! Charlie! Charlie!)
(Oh, I love Charlie! Charlie? Fuckin' love Charlie, man! Woo!)
[Chorus]
Used to run around with the kids at noon
Now he's got a job at the greasy spoon
Washing all the dishes for the night to come
Been thirty years but the night is young
On the weekends he gets to paint the lines
White chalk dust makes him cough sometimes
But Charlie's not too late
