Face the Facts, You’re Old

Verse 1
First goes your vision
And then your hearing
Age spots will make you scream
You’ll rub and sprinkle
Stuff on your wrinkles
And weight loss
You know that’s just a dream
Chorus
Metabolism starts to slow
Your teeth now sleep out in a bowl
You’ve traded steak for casserole
So I’ve been told
So just …
Get on home, make out your will
The undertaker, he’s dressed to kill
You’re just about ready
For the streets of gold
Face the facts… You’re Old
Face the facts… You’re Old
Verse 2
You spend your vacation bucks
On medication
And down at that Scooter Store
Much Preparation H
Some constipation
And you’ll fight
But you just won’t win that war
Bridge
Like your back some terms
Jump up and nag ya
I'm talkin’ Sominex, Geritol
And words that rhyme with Niagra
Final Chorus
Metabolism it starts to slow
Your teeth now sleep out in a bowl
You’ve traded steak for casserole
From here its all downhill, I’m told
So just …
Get on home, make out your will
The undertaker, he’s dressed to kill
You’re just about ready
For the streets of gold
So I’ve been told there’ll be
Ending
Corns & bunions, Fungus toes
The weight hangs on
Your hair lets go
You once were hot, but now you’re cold
Face the facts… You’re Old
