The Old Fellow Ted

He is many Seasons beyond his life's prime But one lucky beautiful brunette with him enjoys a good time Though she confides to her friends he is not much use in bed She will stay with him for his money the old fellow Ted Twelve times a great grandfather he left his old wife For the attractive young beauty the new love in his life A wealthy old fellow many times a millionaire The good life with him she is willing to share The wealthiest old man by far in the town In his early eighties his gray hair dyed brown Though money does not bring him back youthful elan His young partner would not be with him were he a poor man Not lacking in ego that is to give him his due And that money speaks every language happens to be true And the fact is his pretty young partner lovely to behold Would not be with him were he poor and old Large amounts of money great pleasure even to an old man does bring When he is out on the town with her he feels like a king Yet despite hair dyes and face lifts the years on him show And though he tries to act young he walks stiff and slow She is twenty five and he is eighty three And she is only with him for his money though this he cannot see But that all men grow older and few do grow wise Is something old Ted does not seem to realize.
