Sean McConnell - As the Curtain Came Down

If I would have known, as the curtain came down
It would stay there for years, I'd have turned right around
Told the boys to keep playing, til I wore my voice out
Oh if I would have known, as the curtain came down

I'd have hopped off the stage, right onto the floor
Sang acapella straight to the back door
Raised a toast to the future
Bought the whole place a round
Hell if I would have known, as the curtain came down

I'd have sung every note with a little more passion
With a lump in my throat and just kept that Epiphone thrashing
I'd have stood on the stage til they cut off the sound
Oh if I would have known, as the curtain came down

I'd have packed up the J-45 a little bit slower
Stood by those amplifiers, and just watched the tubes glowing
Lit up a cigarette and just hung around
If I would have known, as the curtain came down

I'd have sung every note with a little more passion
With a lump in my throat and just kept that Epiphone thrashing
I'd have stood on the stage til they cut off the sound
Oh if I would have known, as the curtain came down

I'd have sung every note with a little more passion
With a lump in my throat and just kept that Epiphone thrashing
I'd have stood on the stage til they cut off the sound
Oh if I would have known, as the curtain came down

I'd have sat in the greenroom
I'd have drunk all the wine
Read all the horrible things on the wall
That the bands left behind
I'd have laughed like a school boy
I'd have cried like a clown
Hell if I would have known, as the curtain came down
Oh if I would have known, as the curtain came down
