Dating In Your Sixties
Dating in your sixties
is really no fun at all.
Our requirements have changed,
you don't need to be handsome or tall.
There's not too much to choose from,
the good ones have a mate.
You just hope to hell to find one
you're not embarrassed just to date.
Glasses, false teeth, even no hair,
are things we're not bothered about.
Just pray he can carry on a conversation
and doesn't act like some kind of lout.
Size and shape don't count,
it's what's inside that matters.
Someone who can just be kind
and maybe say things that flatter.
Women want a man who's loyal,
funny, patient and not mean.
Men seem to want a Barbie doll,
someone out of a dream.
And now with online dating
it seems all they want to do is chat.
If I'm not going to dinner or a movie
I'd just as soon stay home with the cat.
