Getting Old
The joys of aging (with a sense of humor)

Getting old is lots of fun
You get to sit instead of run.
Let others fetch and do the chores,
You get to stay and nap indoors.

You get the seat while others stand,
And someone always lends a hand.
You never have to clean your plate,
No one will yell should you be late.

"They're old you know" they'll whisper clear,
Into a friends awaiting ear.
While you just sit and stare in space,
A smile upon your happy face.

Cuz deep inside you know you're fine,
You're having fun just passing time.
It's attitude they always say,
And you're just fine with each new day.

Less bills to pay, less stress and strife
It's quite a happy carefree life.
It's just you'd have more friends and class,
If only you'd quit passing gas.
