At Arm's Length

My wife says I need glasses
But I don't think I do
Just because I missed that elephant
That evening at the zoo

I can see as good as always
I don't bump into the wall
I only got lost a couple of times
While walking down the hall

My eyes may not be perfect
But they still have pretty good strength
Cause now I read my magazines
From a distance at arm's length

Things might be a little blurry
I just need a little sleep
So don't worry about these peepers
They still have plenty of peep
