Guess they will have to change this to 60 now...

Ain’t Dead Yet…


 

At 20 told with drugs and the drink,

                    Dead before you’re fifty…

 

At 25, car accidents, drugs & drinkin,’

                        Dead before you’re fifty…

 

At 30, jail, drugs & again drinkin,’

            Yep, you guessed it, dead before you’re fifty… 

 

At 40 and yet just the same, no kiddin,’

                            Cept gave up drinkin,’

                        Again, dead before fifty…

 

Here I am just over 2 months to fifty,

       And still I ain’t dead, YET.

So there, I say to all those soothsayers of negativity,

Yeah, let me say it again, SO THERE…

It ain't over til it's over, Ed. Two months left? Be afraid; be very afraid; and don't go to sleep for the next two months.

I hear Serial killer Kate, Tinka-Pinka-Pooh, and Grey Wolf have been seen consorting together, and even worse, booking a flight for New Jersey.
