Lyrics
Signs of growing old (Glynne Davies) Beware of the signs of your twilight years When it feels like the morning after but not had a beer You while away the time in your favourite armchair Stick your teeth into a steak, and they stay there Eyesight's fading, body aching Hearing fails, you’re getting frail. You join a health club, but don’t bother to go Send money for charity to the Terry Wogan show You sit in a rocking chair but cant make it rock Look forward to bedtime at about seven O’Clock Eyesight's fading, ... You go to bed early but cant sleep till morning Remember the past vividly but not what you’re doing Look forward to a dull night in, the TV to view Reclusive, you’re back goes out more than you do Eyesight's fading, ... Everything hurts, what doesn’t, doesn’t work And you prefer a Lada instead of a Merc Your house is too big, your medicine chest too small And everyone around you seems to be so tall Eyesight's fading, ... Your just want to live to be a grumpy old fool To do what you want and break all the rules To be obnoxious, awkward and from urine you smell And just for a change give your kids hell Eyesight's fading, ...
