about

No longer a 30-something, I am now a 40-something... so I wrote a song about it. Tongue in cheek, as usual! Played on a baritone ukulele, incidentally...

lyrics

I turned 40 the other day
My hair is gone, or it'd be gray
There's no doubt my life has changed
My body looks... rearranged

My kids call me old man anyway
Mirrors make me wanna call foul play
Or maybe it's all in my head
There is a hot blonde in my bed

Are they supposed to hang this low
Is it supposed to rise up this slow
And where the hell has my hair gone
Am I supposed to have this much fun

Are they supposed to hang this low
Or are they now just for show
Is my life gonna be one big yawn
Am I supposed to have this much fun

The blonde has nothing good to say
She wants a younger guy to lead astray
I'm gonna need another drink
I look at her boobs and I think

Are they supposed to hang this low
That tuck is gonna cost some dough
She's gotta weigh a metric ton
And I'm still having tons of fun
