On Getting Old
On Getting old
I just got back from the dentist, with me new set
of National Health teeth,
They go wiv me National Health glasses
that fit round me hearing aid piece.
Me knees are this nice new plastic that the
National Health surgeon put in.
Me hips are of a surgical metal ,that used
to be known as tin
Me 'airs not me own though it don't look too bad,
It's made of pure nylon,the best to be 'ad
I've elastic stockings supporting me veins,
a surgical corset 'cos me back gives me pain,
surgical boots 'cos me foots not quite right,
and now where's me puffer, me chest feels
all tight.
