Who Is the Fool the Old Or the New
The old sit around with nothing to do
The new run around acting like a fool
The old look at you and think
How times have changed in just a wink
There is nothing new under the sun
Yet the new search for it trying to find it
The old already know they were once new
The old know that death is around the corner
The new believe that death is far away
The Old know it could happen any day
The new see the old as people withering away
The old see the new as people on their way
If you have no time for the old then you are a fool
For someday no one will have time for you
