Folk - Country - Jazz - Pop
A broad range of genres and production values - from studio work to raw live performances on acoustic instruments back in the days of killer tape hiss. (All were produced as song demos vs artist demos.) IF YOU'RE A LYRIC FAN, click on the "full" or "full song info" line and play the songs from there. That way you can read the lyrics at the bottom of the page as the song plays. I am guilty of all the words, music, arrangements, production, and male vocals. Fortunately, for both you AND me, friends handled the female vocals. (Thanks Leanne, Bodra, Dianne, & Roxanne!) See ya out there!

Lyrics
THERE'S AN OLD LADY ON THE OUTSIDE OF MY BODY There's an old lady on the outside of my body Looking back from the mirror night and day I have no idea how she got there But I sure as hell wish she would go away I've got lines on my face, wrinkles here and there Lord knows what happened to the color of my hair My arm's too short for the books I wanna read And sometimes I can't remember if I already peed There's an old lady on the outside of my body Looking back from the mirror night and day I have no idea how she got there But I sure as hell wish she would go away I hear gurgles and pops, grunts and groans I'm sure it's not me, but there's no one else at home My chest keeps sliding down my front And I remember sex by the year and month There's an old lady on the outside of my body Looking back from the mirror night and day I have no idea how she got there But I sure as hell wish she would go away I've got pills for my bones, lotions for skin Girlfriends that lie about the shape I'm in Sometimes I can't remember what I just said Sometimes I can't remember what I just said There's an old lady on the outside of my body Looking back from the mirror night and day I have no idea how she got there But I sure as hell wish she would go away Some fear getting older They look upon it with dread But I don't mind getting older Because if you think about it... If I wasn't getting older I'd be dead! Well, there's an old lady on the outside of my body Looking back from the mirror night and day I have no idea how she got there But I guess I'd rather have her stay ©2006 VC Powel & RK Chappell
