A Grumpy Old Man
A Grumpy Old Man
By Elton Camp
Nothing in his world is ever right
So he complains both day & night
He constantly sings the same old song
Those around him are doing him wrong
Even his wife he does constantly berate
So that their marriage she comes to hate
His landlord wishes that he would move
The peace of the place it would improve
Relatives, his ways, try to tolerate
But to visit him they secretly hate
The doctor despises to see him appear
Knowing he will complain and sneer
With other people he’ll never agree
None else are as obnoxious as he
He has become just a hateful old goat
To being a grouch his life does devote
