Everything is farther then it used to be.
It is twice as far to the corner and I notice a hill has been added
I gave up running for the bus, it leaves sooner than it used to.
They are making stairs steeper then they used to and I notice smaller print in the newspapers.
There is no use asking people to read to you, everyone speaks in such low voice I can hardly hear them.
The material in dresses is so skimpy, especially around the waist and hips.
People are changing – they look much younger then they used to when I was their age.
I ran into an old school mate the other day, she had aged so much she didn’t recognize me.
I got to thinking about the poor thing
and while I was combing my hair I glanced at my reflection in the mirror
they sure don’t make mirrors like they used to either.
You know I have four men in my life now,
1 – I go around with Charley Horse
2 – I eat with Will Power
3 – I spend the day with Arthur Ritis
4 – And I go to bed with Ben Gay
