Stuck At 40

I have never been 40
it's coming soon
it's just around the corner
The big 4-0 looms
I have Never been 40
I haven't got a clue
Will my hair turn grey 
How much will I lose? 
I have never been 40 
What do I do
I've heard all the stories
I don't want to face the truth 
I'm turning 40  
Goodbye to my youth
Can some one help me
I'm turning 40 and singing the blues
 Will I lose my teeth and gum my food
Wear knee high socks?
Watch the news
I'm turning 40
My life is through 
What is next
What have I got to look forward to
It's all downhill 
Oh God damn 
God damn 
What to do
I'm turning 40 
my life is through
