Champagne cocktails after three
Cafe royale's the place for me
Penguin waiters chandeliers
All that glitters
Here inside my head my inside

Only once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
Make the most of it
Don't play around with it
Only once in a lifetime

Take my hand you silver spoon
We can dance around the room
Angelo bring more wine
My friend and i
We wish to dine
Inside my head my inside

Chorus:

Only once in a lifetime
It only happens once in a lifetime
Make the most of it
Don't play around with it
Only once in a lifetime

Only once in a lifetime
It only happens only once
Only once in a lifetime

There's many a place I haven't been
Declined an offer from the queen
Refused admission (you can't come in here mate)
On the door
It's still that cafe royale
That scores inside my head my inside

Chorus

Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime
Only once in a lifetime

• In The Bleak Midwinter
• Once in a Lifetime
