Today I'm 40 Yesterday I was 39 I guess I should celebrate somehow With some food and a bottle of wine The thoughts of being younger Keep running through my head When I could act like a complete clown And not panic about things I've said The world was exciting and happy So I embraced it with all my might With the good times and the bad times I still learnt with the world in sight Turning 40 hasn't really changed me The mind still thinks it 24 My body gets an occasional twinge But I'm definatly not a bore So here's to being 40 If you want to celebrate it's up to you I'll just keep my thoughts of happiness And sit around till I'm 41 and 42
