[Verse 1] All that's good, all that's right Everything hot, all that's tight Women, men, pubescent girls Never again to finger their curls On their heads, so exquisite Never again to visit The palace, the palace of love [Chorus] Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left [Verse 2] The work is just beginning As my hair begins thinning Pleasure is passed and all that's dear As friend and foe alike disappear Never again to visit The palace, the palace of love [Chorus] Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left [Bridge] Perfume, the smell of perfume is forgotten And the shape of her room And the sheets on her bed disappear forever from my head No more the sudden thrill as you dip into the swill Never again to visit the palace, the palace of love [Chorus] Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left Forty years of living then death That's all that's left Forty years then death Forty years, that's all that's left [Outro] Howard Hughes bottled his piss After he drank some tinnies He was afraid that he'd miss And now he plays the pinnies
