Wrinkles Are Like Paychecks Every Two Weeks
when i was young ...
fill in the blank
as a matter of fact,
after you borrow the car, remember to fill it back up says dad
when i was young...
i'm drawing a blank
like the millions of chores i haven't remembered to do
when i was young...
BLAnk! BLank! Blank!
my parents would kill me if they new my tongue swayed like a sailor
when i was young... puberty was doubt
when i was young... and wet behind the ears
now life taught me how to dry off
when i was youn- wait... I'm catching myself
Doing the opposite of what i said i wouldn't do
thinking back on youth
when i was youthful i couldn't wait to be 21 and older
now the time has come
and i'm missing being 18 and younger
