Life's been a bit fraught recently so this week I wrote a song, probably the quickest song from idea to finish, about 9 hours!! Maybe some of you can relate to the words LOL

Old man boogie

Gotta be careful when I cough, laugh or sneeze
and everything I do now is killing me
I'm up half the night and fall asleep in the day
and all these damned aches just wont go away
I'm falling apart and its plain to see
I got the old man boogie and its bugging me

Take tablets in the morning, lunchtime and at night
I can hardly breath cos my trousers are too tight
My parting's got wider,so much wider every day
my 6 packs gone for ever cos there's fat now in the way
I'm falling apart and its plain to see
I got the old man boogie and its bugging me

solo

it's certainly true it only hurts when you laugh
it's a major operation just to get me out the bath
I look in the mirror , can't believe that is me
I'm falling apart and its plain to see
I got the old man boogie and its bugging me
