Help...it's heck gettin' old

look to the good side of gettin' old
'least you're not underground, dead and cold! *grins*

help...it's heck gettin' old
my body is gettin' stiff and sore
oh crud...there is another gray hair
menopause, wrinkles and more

help...it's heck gettin' old
i'm findin' many more aches and pains
see, i'm tryin' to look younger but
i'm findin' out it's in vain

help...it's heck gettin' old
i'm forgettin' everything and more
i swear that i'm gettin' alzheimer's
rememberin' is *such* a chore

help...it's heck gettin' old
i've found i've got the middle age spread
where did my metabolism go?
i wish these extra pounds i'd shed!

help...it's heck gettin' old
ahhh!! there's wrinkles all over my face!
is there some sort of miracle cream
that these damn things they'd erase??

help...it's heck gettin' old
but i guess i'd rather be alive
each day that i wake up is a good one
another day i've survived!

Oh Karla ... how well do I understand the golden years. And anyting I said about them would be full of expletives. Hope the next 70 years won't get too much worse. But we all go through it an suffer together.
But that ain't much of a consolation is it dear? Hugs Bill Murray
