SECOND TIME ROUND July 26/90 Karl Rigelhof

CHORUS:
(They say) it's better the second time round (
They say)/and that you/we learn from/by (y)our mistakes
(However/but you (ha)ve (often) found)
(That) life's a game of give and take
(It's) one big compromise
(And) you (don't) know why
(Forget the cake)/
(You can have your/the cake)
You'd rather eat/have pie
(Because you've found)
(Because) it's (much) better the second time round

You said never again
You'd never tie the/that knot
But now my friend
(You say) (you're gonna)/you'll give it another/(one more) shot

But that's OK
We understand
There comes a time
When a man
Has to settle down
With no more
Foolin' around

Now you have a son
And (with him comes) responsibility/ies
Like teaching him to play drums
By the time he's three

And he's (just like you)/(your spitting image)
(Right) from his bald head
(Right) down to (the way) he/his scream(s)
(But) you really know
He's a true Cormier
From the smile on his face
When he lets one go

But one thing('s) got/has to stop
One thing's (definitely) got to change
You can't call your wife Bonehead (anymore)
You have to call/nag her with something/another else/name instead

Because if you don't
There'll be no doubt
That she won't put up with it
And then it's/(it'll be)
One, two, strike three
Y'er out
