With every passing Birthday
A milestone passes by
Not so many more Happy returns
As the numbers get far too high
Blowing out those candles
becomes expensive too
Time passes you by
While your stood in the queue
They say Age is just a number
Yes when you are young
Agreeing with the sentiment
After sixty aint fun
Retirement is so welcoming
After working fifty Years
The smoke from those candles
Has reduced Me to tears
Many days have gone and passed me by
Times running out so I'll try
To enjoy what's left with fun and games
while dancing in the sun and rain
They say Age is just a number
Yes when you are young
Agreeing with the sentiment
After sixty aint fun
Lets all do the pain free Gout
Lets all try to twist and shout
Lets all go to the skateboard park
Try a backside flipside for a lark
Maybe fall upon my ass
While attempting a dare and helipop pass
Age isn't a barrier when your laid up in bed
After falling over and banging your head
They say Age is just a number
Yes when you are young
Agreeing with the sentiment
After sixty aint fun
Just relax and enjoy your recovery time
An Aspirin or two and you'll be fine
Drink plenty of water cold with Ice
Or a cream soda "Now that would be nice"
They say Age is just a number
But only when your young
Agreeing with the sentiment
After sixty aint fun
They say a third of your life "You will sleep"
Another third is working and stopping to eat
The rest of your time is spent singing the blues
Waiting for Trains while reading bad news
Many days have gone and passed me by
Times running out so I'll try
To enjoy what's left with fun and games
while dancing in the sun and rain
They say Age is just a number
Yes when you are young
Agreeing with the sentiment
After sixty aint fun
Just relax and enjoy your recovery time
An Aspirin or two and you'll be fine
Drink plenty of water cold with Ice
Or a cream soda "Now that would be nice"
