Old-Age Wealth
People told me that as I got older
I’d lose what was left of my health
That with my pension I’d get poorer
And fail to hang on to my wealth
But that couldn’t be further from the truth!
That statement’s completely unfair
Cos I’ve loads of gold in my teeth
And silver streaks through my hair
My skin’s turned nearly copper
Because I use plenty of oil
I’ve acquired many pearls of wisdom
Through so many years of toil
I’ve got crystals in my kidneys
And sugar runs in my blood
There’s platinum in my hip now
Surely that’s got to be good?
There’s plenty of iron in my diet
The spinach is not easy to pass
And thanks to all the beans that I’m eating
An inexhaustible supply of natural gas!
