[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
The stores are all closed
I couldn't buy a break anyway
Saint Jude, he couldn't help me or you, I suppose
Yeah, I suppose
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
The last to know
We play the jokes in this minstrel show
'Cause no one cares in this showbiz crowd
Anymore
Not anymore
[Verse 4]
Got another cigarette
I'm not quite through with this story yet
There's nothing here that we should fear
I suppose
Yeah, I suppose
[Chorus]
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
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 5]
From the cradle to the grave
All the memories never saved
There's nothing here that we should fear
So I'm told
Yeah, so I'm told
[Chorus]
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
[Outro]
The very last to know
The very last to know
