Life Is Cruel

You know, life sure is funny
The way some things unfold
It's like your second childhood
In the years that we grow old

We gotta go back in diapers
So we don't pee the bed
We're too old to hold a spoon
So, we even gotta be fed

And since all our teeth fell out
Our food's either mashed or cut
And everytime we have too poop
Somebody wipes our butt

They even have to tie our shoes
And put on all our clothes
When we come down with a cold
Someone has to wipe our nose

So, when your days on earth is long
Remember this golden rule
Living long is not much fun
Because sometimes life is cruel
