My stamp collection's out
Turned to the Belgian Congo
It wasn't very long ago
We used to call it that

My coins are in the drawer
They lost their value long ago
I take them out from time to time
They're worthless that's for sure

The soundtrack of my life
Comes from Pearl & Dean
They used to run the adverts
On every movie screen

I love my aspidistras
They're nurtured so they'll last
I keep them on the landing
In the ancient past

Things seem to havе moved on
It only took a moment
A moment of indеcision
And I was left behind

But I've had a damn good run
I knew it couldn't last
Let's leave it in the attic
In the ancient past
Leave it in the attic
In the ancient past
