I got 12 months left to join the 27 club
12 months left to join the 27 club
12 months left to join the 27 club
And will I make the big-time?
I got 11 months left to join the 27 club
11 months left to join the 27 club
11 months left to join the 27 club
Will I run out of time?
See all I want to do is just rock and roll, baby
Burn out like one of the greats
The gods of fate are like "yes, no, maybe"
Oh, is it now too late?
I got 10 months left to join the 27 club
Still got time to join the 27 club
9 months left to join the 27 club
And time's just going faster
I got 8 months left to join the 27 club
8 months left - oh god, I got some shows to book,
7 months left and I'm still playing in the pub,
On my old stratocaster
See, all I want to do is just rock and roll, baby
Burn out like one of the greats
The gods of fate are like "yes, no, maybe"
Oh, is it now too late?
I got 6 months left to join the 27 club
Girlfriend's pregnant - has been for the last 3 months
5 months left, now my priority is my job
Guess I'm not Cobain or Hendrix
I got 4 months left to join the 27 club,
3 months left, and I've already cut out the drugs,
2 months left, sober responsible adult,
The gods of fate are dicks
See all I want to do is just rock and roll, baby
Burn out like one of the greats
The gods of fate are like "yes, no, maybe"
Oh, is it now too late?
I got 1 month left to join the 27 club
1 month left to join the 27 club
1 month left to join the 27 club
Immortal glory and fame
Now it's a day too late, and there is no 28 club,
But who cares?
Now I'm a member of the fatherhood
The mini-human we made is equally as good,
So I guess I can't complain
Coz now I got a little rock 'n' roll baby
She likes nursery rhymes and
Fuckin' METALLICA!
Maybe I've got a few shows left in me,
So I can get away from the all the crying for the odd evening,
But here's the kicker:
What good is fame and fortune when you're dead?
So screw the 27 club
I'd rather live instead.
