Over the Age of Fifty This One Is For You

Those damn old people with their applesauce, and need for retirement I giggle at the sizes adult diapers come in, They haven't worked hard enough for me yet, We need more cotton picked more tobacco chopped And more polyester pants AARP sounds like a senior citizens sorority to me Oh! how I chide in laughter, Nothing like a hip replacement with no coverage really tickles the funny bone I was talking to my grandma and she believes the government does her wrong But how is that; when you can't even remember what happened yesterday For all you know they have given you lower prescription payments I'm snortling to the point I have urinated in my pants Just remind myself to pick up grandpa's extra big boy bladder briefs They shouldn't be able to live off of years and years of labor by social security Besides if they can remember back in their day, they can remember to go get... A JOB! and while they're talking 'bout the olden days, would you like fries with that?
