Over - Vic Chesnutt

It ain’t over till it’s over

Just like some joker said

When it’s over, it is done

When it’s done, it’s as good as dead

When it’s good, the show is good

Yes, and when it’s good it’s great

When it’s great, it’s woah, so wonderful

But when it ain’t, it ain’t

It sucks when it’s over

And you can’t get it back

Why do we all want to

Like a pack of necrophiliacs?

When the fat lady sings

It’s all been sung

Collect up your belongings

And clear the auditorium

It was fun while it lasted

Yes it was

It was fun while it lasted

Now it’s all turned to dust

It was fun while it lasted

I must say

It was fun while it lasted

Now it’s all blown away

Everything blows away someday

Everything turns to dust

Big old mountains do

As well as every one of us

And I love the dust
