Life Changes

Oh dear, woe is me After years of having money That I can feel and see I knew how much was in my wallet That held the notes Coins jangled in the pockets Of my outdoor coats I did not have to worry If I overspent I could see what was left in my wallet And where my money went I will miss the coinage And the special notes This different kind of payment Does not get this old girls vote How can you give children Some coins to put into their pockets This will not be possible With a plastic docket What will happen to the Mint Collectors of coins and such Employees will lose their jobs That won't impress them much I know a lot of people Don't share my point of view Please respect it and I'll respect yours too Too much change as we grow old Seems to dramatic and drastic That's why I hold the view Back with money out with plastic
