Lyrics

O. L. D.

(Verse)
Went to see my doctor, she said Son I’m afraid to say,
you got a serious condition, and it ain’t gonna go away
Can’t write no prescription, and there ain’t no remedy,
in the end it will be fatal! You got the O.L.D.

(Chorus)
I got the O.L.D. I got the O.L.D
I never would’ve guessed I’d be in this mess, It’s bound to get the best of me
The runways getting shorter, can’t see the forest or the trees!
I kinda look the same but I’m losing the game! I got the O.L.D.

(Verse)
It’s actually quite common, the early symptoms ain’t so bad.
You’ll feel occasional discomfort, you might need to buy a heating pad
Folks’ll say you don’t look different, but they’re only being kind,
Pretty soon your keys and your wallet and your glasses are impossible to find.

(Chorus)
You got the O.L.D. You got the O.L.D
You better find a place to save some face cause this could be a tragedy
You might think that you won’t catch it, but it’s gonna get you wait and see
Chin up dude! Get over it soon! You got the O.L.D.

(Bridge)
I probably won’t survive another fall !
Does anybody know anything about
Playing Pickle Ball?

(Verse)
The younger generation, all full of vim and verve.
Might seek an explanation, when Time throws that mighty curve
Let’s try to give them comfort, Say “Hey! Check out these brand new knees!”
It’s not completely wretched you just caught the OLD!.

(Chorus)
We got the O.L.D. We got the O.L.D
It ain’t so bad so don’t feel so sad and retain your dignity
There is one consolation it’s pretty plain to see
It’s just our fate, no body escapes! We all get the O.L.D.
