Tune: There'll Always be an England
Note: This can also be recited as a spoken piece
I’m Sixty and I’m Sexy
At least that’s what I hear
From the programs seen on TV
And the talk shows on the air.
The magazines print articles
By some Authority
All telling me, at sixty,
I’m as Sexy as can be!
I’m Seventy and Sensual
Though it really doesn’t show
Geriatric experts tell me
I’m mature and all aglow.
They say hidden wells of passion
Are just bubbling up in me
And at seventy I’ve hit my peak
Of sensuality!
I’m Eighty and I “Ought to”
There’s no time to put things off
No excuses like, “I’m breathless”
Or “Exertion makes me cough”.
For I’m told I’ve still got fires
That I didn’t know I had
And I would tell my husband but
When I wake him, he gets mad!
Now I‘m Ninety and I’m Naughty
Ant there’s nothing new to me
I’ve been having sex since sixty
And I’m tired as can be.
But I’m telling you a secret
And it’s one that you must keep
When I get to be One Hundred
I AM DARN WELL GOING TO SLEEP!
