Freezepop - Retired tennis pro Lyrics

(k. crooker, j.gamache)

tell me, retired tennis pro
was it actually so long ago
that you held aloft a shiny trophy cup
and waved to the crowds in the stands up above

there's some stuff that I really wanna know
some small piece of advice that you don't mind letting go
tell me, tell me, retired tennis pro

you're getting older and slower every day
it was best to quit while you still could play
so you took the cue and bowed out gracefully
and I see you every now and then on my tv

there's some stuff that I really wanna know
some small piece of advice that you don't mind letting go
there's some stuff that I really have to know
tell me, tell me, tell me, retired tennis pro

the hot sun beats down upon the clay
do you think back and reminisce about those days?
is it a relief? are you cool with being done?
winning is a whole lot easier when you're young

there's some stuff that I really wanna know
some small piece of advice that you don't mind letting go
there's some stuff that I really have to know
tell me, tell me, tell me
(2x)
