Life's Doddering Stage

Though many on their day far greater than me I am not the man that i once used to be There does come a time when we all feel our age I am one of those at life's doddering stage That some men are old they do not realize But having said that this is no great surprise Since it is true about pride it comes before a fall A truism that does apply to us all I see this old bloke in the park every day On anti ageing creams and hair dyes he hides time's decay With a beautiful young blond a third of his age he walks hand in hand The respect that money does seem to command Perhaps in his late seventies and far from handsome to behold But in his own mind he is not feeling old A woman is as old as she looks some are known to say And a man is old when he stops looking life can be this way I am feeling my age three years with sixty three That you are as old as you feel you are would you not agree But against time i am one who refuse for to rage Since i accept i am at life's doddering stage.
