Testosterone
Oh! Testosterone!
Where have you gone?
My motor seems to be out of gas,
Hard to get going, dragging my ass.
Oh! Hair!
Where have you gone?
No need to brush it out of my eyes,
Now my forehead is twice it's size.
Oh! Eyesight!
Where have you gone?
It is getting harder and harder to see,
Who is that guy in the mirror, it might be me?
Oh! Hearing!
Where have you gone?
The answer to this question I can’t ever hear,
If you want my attention, scream in my ear.
Oh! Memory!
Where have you gone?
Don’t ask me anything over a few days old,
No chance to remember, I must be told.
Oh! Youth!
Where have you gone?
Old man time is creeping up on me.
Old age is not for sissies I’m beginning to see.
