Another year has passed,
and we're all a little older.
Last summer felt hotter
and winter seems much colder.
There was a time not long ago
when life was quite a blast.
Now I fully understand
about "Living in the Past".
We used to go to weddings,
football games and lunches.
Now we go to funeral homes,
and after-funeral brunches.
We used to go out dining,
and couldn't get our fill.
Now we ask for doggie bags,
come home and take a pill.
We used to often travel
to places near and far.
Now, we get sore asses
from riding in the car.
We used to go to nightclubs
and drink a little booze.
Now, we stay home at night
and watch the evening news.
That, my friend is how life is,
and now my tale is told.
