lyrics

Old age doesn’t come alone, it has light-fingered friends
Pieces of you disappear long before it all ends
Now your grandson’s getting taller
But your life is getting smaller
And you try to be prepared but all you can be is scared

It was bad before but it’s much worse now

The Bermans and The Byrons by your age were long gone
They knew how to live their life and they knew when it was done
Now your grandson’s getting taller
But your life is getting smaller
You shared your troubles with those who cared
But a problem shared was a problem squared

It was bad before but it’s much worse now

I became you in a pronoun switcheroo
Where truth and beauty are concerned
Well, it seems somewhat askew
You wish that you could take things into your own hands
But you’ve taken yourself hostage
Given in to your own demands
