When you get to 40

When you get to 40, you hit the wall
When you get to 40, you think you got it all
Then your back starts achin'
And your knees start shakin'
Your hair starts greyin'
And not just only on your head
Or so I've read

When you get to 40, you start to slow up
When you get to 40, you dribble from your cup
'Cos your eyes are dimmin'
And your hair is thinnin'
Your skin is stretchin'
And floppin' all over your face
What a disgrace

When you get to 40, it's hard to read the news,
'Cos when you get to 40, it's your glasses that you lose.
'Cos your memory falters,
And your body shape alters,
The hormones run out, dry up and disappear from view,
Is that you?

When you get to 40, it's time to relax
When you get to 40, forget about the tax
So don`t worry 'bout the money
Today is nice and sunny
Don't worry 'bout the money 'cos you might not be here anyway, hey, hey, hey

So soon I'll get to 50,then 60 then more
Soon I'll get to 50 and my blood I'll need to store,
'Cos I`ll need an operation
A body transplantation
I'll need reincarnation 'cos I'm worn out, worn out to the core
Ah, no more
