Another year
has passed And we're all a little older |
Now we suffer body
aches And sleep the night away. |
Last summer felt hotter And winter seems much colder |
We used to go out
dining, And couldn't get our fill. |
I rack my brain for
happy thoughts, To put down on my pad, |
Now we ask for doggie
bags, Come home and take a pill |
But lots of things, That come to mind Just make me kind of sad |
We used to travel often To places near and far. |
There was a time not
long ago When life was quite a blast. |
Now we get backaches From riding in the car. |
Now I fully understand About 'Living in the Past'. |
We used to go out shopping For new clothing at the Mall |
We used to go to friends homes, Baseball games and lunches |
But, now we never bother... All the sizes are too small. |
Now we go to therapy, to hospitals, And after-funeral brunches |
That, my friend is how life is, And now my tale is told |
We used to have hangovers, From parties that were gay. |
So, enjoy each day and live it up |
Before you're too damn old!!
