Joy of Ageing
When you were young and beautiful
You were full of sadness
A lifetime of loneliness
That makes some people scared and anxious
Years later you realise
That the time in between was a lot of fun
Once you managed it the first time
You live free and easy
Yesterday still a young butterfly
You go grief-stricken through old age
The end is drawing near, later or sooner
For us old baby boomers
The guys say, "We're doing great"
The women say, "We're invisible"
For those no longer young and yet not old
Full of faded figures
That's the joy of aging
That's the joy of aging
Is that a mood swing
Or the old underlying disease?
And isn't it futile to ask
This question in the autumn of life?
Everything sour, everything shit
If you come from a melancholy forest 1
Cheerfulness and depression
They just happen, you already know that
And yet I have to praise my age
Relieved of the duty to procreate
Fortunately we are exempt from
Being involved in the dating world
Fifty, clumsy and shy
And I'm still here
Fifty, clumsy and shy
And many years before we die
That's the joy of aging
That's the joy of aging
What the heck? What's the stress
With the pursuit of happiness?
Happiness is not a civic duty
The things that people talk about so much
Don't exist in most cases
There's no such thing as happiness and love!
That's the joy of aging
That's the joy of aging
Yeah, just run after happiness
But don't run too hard
Everyone is running after happiness
And happiness gets left behind
That's the joy of aging
That's the joy of aging...
