This is a fun song about aging from one of the Winni concerts. I am not sure how I ended up putting it together except it was an observation on how I was not so gracefully aging...
lyrics
How to Tell The Truth
My skin is skin is getting smoother,
My hair is getting thick,
My eyesight is much sharper,
And my social skills are slick,
The only thing that I regret about losing my youth is,
I’ve forgotten how to tell the truth.
I attractive to all women,
I’m the envy of all men,
I am a dynamo lover,
Again, again, again, again,
The only thing that I regret about losing my youth is,
I’ve forgotten how to tell the truth.
I’m an excellent driver,
Quite considerate on the road,
People wave hi to me with one finger,
Everywhere that I go.
I feel limber in the morning,
From a long and restful night,
I can really hold my liquor,
Much to everyone’s delight,
The only thing that I regret about losing my youth is,
I’ve forgotten how to tell the truth.
I’ve got a photographic memory,
I always know what I’m doing,
I’ve reflected on my life,
So I know why yours is in ruins!
My physique is finely chiseled,
Less than 2 % body fat,
Everyone wants to know where I going,
Cause where I’m going’s where its at,
The only thing that I regret about losing my youth is,
I’ve forgotten how to tell the truth.
How about you?
You’ve forgotten how to tell the truth,
Let’s own it everybody,
We’ve forgotten how to tell the truth.
