Forgotten Antique
Some might say I'm old-fashioned
Well that's just simply not true
I know nothing at all about fashion
But I'm old so what am I to do
I was born in the nineteen sixtys
A heated rock was my microwave
Cable tv meant wearing the tin foil hat
And no, I didn't live in a cave
My bathroom was called the out house
A place where deep thoughts begin
I know I sound like I'm ancient
But the Flinstones were not my kin
My pet was not a dinosaur
I didn't know Adam and Eve
I'm not old, I'm experienced
No matter what you perceive
Some of you might think this funny
But such was the life for me
I'm not old just a forgotten antique
Or a piece of history
