I am growing older day by day
Hair that was brown is now so Grey
I was full of energy wild and free
Now I am so tired, what happened to me
My sell by day is soon to be expired
I used to get wolf whistle and honking cars
Now my boobs do not fit, in my push up bra’s
My waist was slender boys said, I was, oh so slim
I never once dieted or went to the gyme
So what happened where did life go wrong
I now wear big knickers, I dumped my thong
Teeth they once looked so clean, now are shite
Friday night I would go looking to a gang fight
Eye’s that seen everything, and lots more besides
Now can't see a thing, Nhs glasses are my pride
Won't some one tell me why, we all have to get old
I used to smell so sweet now I stink of old mould
I suppose you could say I have had my days
I was young free and happy now my memory is a haze
Sitting here in my old rocking chair I just dream
I had smooth clear skin once, now I use a wrinkle cream
Age creeps up on us all so fast
Enjoy life now before you breathe your last
