Growing old disgracefully.
I refuse to get much older
In fact I’m in my prime
There’s still so much I want to do
I never waste my time
I tell my friends I love them
My family are my all
I will be there when they need me
They only have to call
Oh yes we have our moments
I can be a real pest
But that is only cos I think
That I always know whats best
Then they tell me different
I suppose that they are right
But that don’t mean that I concede
Without putting up a fight
The more I think about it
The more that I can see
I’m a right bloody nuisance
They must get sick of me
I think that I should listen
To what they have to say
And grow up just a little bit
And let them have their way
I may wait till tomorrow
To turn over that new leaf
I might be good for a little while
To stop me getting grief
My faults are only little
In fact I can see none
Although I do have some regrets
Of things that I have done
I know they’re right really
I just want to remain young
And live my life up to the full
And have a little fun
Maybe a happy medium
Is what is called for here
So tomorrow I’ll be really good
But tonight I’m on the beer
