When you get older
Your mind is so slow
As you go about
Your daily life with your head in the clouds
Oh yeah that’s bad
Then you go to do activities
To improve your mind
Making artworks
And kids toys out of wood
C’mon you feel unreal
Then you go to celebrate
Your birthday because your getting old
You walk on a bus as slow as ever
Making everyone late
Drinking scotch at the airport pub
With a midgeon of ice
Then as you leave you head is spinning
And alcohol poisoning is coming in
You feel like throwing up something fierce
And then the party is over yeah
You drink Metamucil to improve your health
It gives you energy to burn
Then as everyone is going to
A music festival as they hit you while passing
You yell at them saying
That Woodstock people were nicer yeah
A sign you are growing old
When you watching the tube in your house you suddenly grow so tired
As the young are staying up all night
Your eyes can’t stay awake
You remember when your music was
On after 11
But now your music is in family concerts
A sign that I am growing old
As the young are in the clubs
Partying all night
You are going to community performances
Still partying away
To girls and music that was cool back then while young people say your lame
Very very very lame
