ALEJANDRO ESCOVEDO
"Last To Know"

The last to know
The party's over and we won't go
No one to laugh at our jokes
Anymore
There's the door
Don't forget your hat

The stores are all closed
Couldn't buy a break anyway
Saint Jude he couldn't help me or you
I suppose

More miles than money
Look at out lives and it's so funny
More miles than money
We fall in love and it's never funny
We're the last, the very last to know

The last to know
We play the jokers in this minstrel show
'Cause no one cares in this showbiz crowd
Anymore

Got another cigarette
I'm not quite through with this story yet
Nothing left here that we should fear
I suppose

From the cradle to the grave
All the memories never saved
Nothing here that we should fear
So I'm told

As the night slips away
And we stumble towards another day
There's nothing more left to say
I suppose
