[Intro]
       x 2


[Verse 1: Ruby Fields & Adam Newling]
             
My old man lov

              
es a slap at t

   
he pub
             
One hundred st

             
iff down the p

lug
            
"It's just mon

              
ey", he says, 

       
"Can't take it

 when you're d

ead"
             
Fends off my d

              
isputes with a

 
 shrug


[Verse 2: Ruby Fields]
             
The sad thing,

              
 Dad, is we al

  
l lag behind
             
With pokie mac

          
hines and   sp

eeding fines
            
The bank of li

              
fe says that w

     
e're all in de

ep debt
             
So money's qui

              
te nice to hav

        
e while alive


[Pre-Chorus: Ruby Fields]
            
So we'll just 

           
exchange a jud

gemental gaze
             
While he slaps

              
 and I sip on 

   
my ciggie
             
His wallet's h

             
aving as much 

              
fun as the air

       
 in my lungs
             
It's as bad as

              
 him smokin' '

   
em with me


[Chorus: Ruby Fields]
             
Oh, the age

    
             
Oh, the ages

    

[Verse 3: Ruby Fields & Adam Newling]
             
My old man lov

              
es a slap at t

   
he pub
             
Sticks to ligh

              
t beer, it's n

     
icer   on his 

gut
            
"It's better",

              
 he says, "tha

  
n headaches in

 bed
             
And it's winni

              
ng me points w

         
ith your mum"


[Pre-Chorus: Ruby Fields & Adam Newling]
            
So we'll just 

            
exchange an ey

e-level gaze
             
'Fore the taxi

              
 man gives him

   
 a call
            
"It's good to 

              
see you, Dad";

           
 "You too, pos

sum, I'm glad
          
To see that yo

              
u're not smoki

      
ng anymore"
 
I lie and walk

 around the bl

ock and light 

another one


[Chorus: Ruby Fields & Adam Newling]
        
Oh, the age
        
Oh, the ages
        
Oh, the age
        
Oh, the ages
