Livin' It Up

(albüm: One Particular Harbour - 1983)

He took one last look
Tossed that address book
His odyssey had begun
No time to see sights
Ran all the red lights
Burned all his bridges
Now it's love on the run

Living it up
Is taking all of his time
But he ain't giving it up
It suits his temperament fine

Up on the bandstand, plays for a few fans
Working for minimum wage
He sees her looking, his brain is cooking
She takes her seat of the foot of the stage

Living it up
It's taking all of his time
But he ain't giving it up
It suits his temperament fine

Yeah he loves living it up
And taking all of his time
But he ain't giving it up
It never crosses his mind

Didn't say much, had a soft touch
Knew what felt good in her man
He was the same way, they split the next day
Sang all the way through the Yucatan

Living it up
It's taking all of our time
But we ain't giving it up
It never crosses our mind
No no no he's just living it up
And taking all of his time
But he ain't giving her up
She suits his temperament fine
Yeah she's just living it up
And taking all of his time.
