lyrics

for the best part of a century I've watched the world go by
at first I tried to make my mark but now I mark my time
I've watched my family grow up and seen them move away
as my friends grew shorter and turned grey

now my hair has receded, showing the skin underneath
and my bones have an ache from which I cannot get relief
and there's lines on all my hands, skin thin as a leaf
but I still have all of my own teeth

I try to keep smiling when I don't feel my best
though I can't walk far without needing a rest
that's alright, I can stay home and watch TV
I don't really have anywhere else to be

now my hair has receded, showing the skin underneath
and my bones have an ache from which I cannot get relief
and there's lines on all my hands, skin thin as a leaf
but I still have all of my own teeth
(they're in this box)
