Ornery Old Men

Good GOD you're a pain
You crazy old fool!
Stop bending my brain
Oh yeah? Hate you too!

Don't you SAY that!
Call me one of those
I'll make your lip fat
Bust your skinny nose!...

Hey man, what's shakin'?
In the neighborhood
What's that you makin'?
Smells pretty good

Nope not too hungry
Gonna' rain I hear
Nah, wasn't angry
Got any beer?

Being an 'ornery old man' myself I was drawn to your title! This is hysterical... it's like looking in the mirror for me! (well, some of it anyway!!) Well done, Tim!!! Best wishes, Keith

Sounds like my brothers when they get together - there's always a little of bravado who's toughest, etc. then they get the beer.
