72 Miles From The Sea

Happy birthday, mother dear

But your dreams won’t come true I fear

The one about the ten grandchildren

I’m gay and I thought I’d made that clear

I understand that getting old today

Can be quite scary, at first anyway

But what's it like now would you say?

Ok I have to admit it, it’s only fair

I do tend to fall asleep in the chair

But my snoring is really not that bad

Just wait until you’re old like your dad

I don’t think of you as old

And what I say to everybody

Is you're just a young girl

Trapped in an old lady’s body

You should be more careful

I’ve told you before

Sitting in candlelight

Makes you look like Skeletor

Old King Cole was a merry old soul,

And a merry old soul was he;

He called for his pot in the middle of the night

Because he needed to take a pee

Are you wearing cheese cloth?

Oh, and you have the sandals there

It’s a very nostalgic look, very New-Age

And you have the excessive body hair
