After all those years when our lives were apart

We humans like all creatures to have a purpose, an aim,
From one-celled amoebas to fungi-spore glebas,
They need a good reason to compete in life's game.
Consider cats: They school us in hygiene

I went to a monster party,
At Castle Frankenstein;
With lots of food and spirit,
The fun kicked off at nine!

Ol' Frankie did the robot,
I stepped to a jitterbug;
The floor began to quake,

in my early teens
Went to house parties and stood against the wall;
watching everybody dance, grooving on the floor,
wasn't no fun at all
Until my oldest sister taught me how to...

You would need giant shears
To cut a rug,
And why should anyone need to do it?
In their 20s and 30s, they jitterbugged
If you had the energy to pursue it

The jitterbug was a lively dance
That was all...

I remember when soda pop was a nickel
Same for a double strawberry popsicle,
Back then the best cars had long tailfins
We did silly things for “sh*ts and grins,”
Turned-up collars and slicked-back hair
We’d do almost anything on...

I just ran into Miss Bear,
At the beauty parlor frosting her hair,
Says she's been there all day,
Trying to hide that pesky gray.

Looking later for a good steak and...
