The Bottom Line Lyrics

When troubles come and you're in doubt

Don't know if you're in or out

Wonder what it's all about

And what's the bottom line

Which one is the right for you

When both proclaim they'll fight for you

Consistently they lie to you

About the bottom line

Aah, this anxiety is classic Film Noir

Aah, don't know what's going on or where the hell you are

It's a wall of sad guitars

Seductive and uncanny

Brick by brick you build a home

Love instilled in every stone

A place to live, for kids to grow up

That's the bottom line

Learn the hard way, clock hands fly

Cherish life while you're alive

Love your dogs, eat apple-pie

'Cause that's the bottom line

Aah, regrets and bad decisions yellowing with age

Aah, too late to criss-cross like in 'strangers on a train'

Find your rosebud, don't be Kane

You won't get any younger

Wish you'd done the opposite?

Well, time won't play no favourites

No one owes you anything

And that's the bottom line

And that's the bottom line

Yeah, that's the bottom line
