lirik lagu how old is 75 – loudon wainwright iii
how old is 75?
so old that you’re hardly alive
it’s a number that’s weighty
in five years you’ll be eighty
poised way up there on the high diving board
tell me how old is 75?
mom made it to 74
though we all thought she’d get a bit more
time, you get what you get
so why get upset
and we all want just a little bit more time, that is
mom made it to 74
(banjo solo)
and my dad, he kicked at 62
way too young, but then why can you do?
when one’s number is up
there is no pre*nup
type agreement between god and you
my dad, he kickеd at 62
and so we proceed to go hence
in thе hope some of it makes some sense
with our allotted amounts
what gets done is what counts
was time wasted or was it well spent?
did ya do as ya chose like ya meant?
(musical interlude)
and i’m having a party this year
i’m inviting all those dear and near
i may need a lift
if you get my drift
and i’m hoping you all will be here, then
i’m having a party this year
but i know some of you won’t be there
i suppose you could be anywhere
in the ether or soil
free from sorrow and toil
you’ll be missed but you won’t really care anymore
i know some of you won’t be there
tell me how is 75?
so old that you’re barely alive
in five years i’ll be 80
i will the hear the fat lady belly flop, jackknife, swan dive
or a cannonball off of a high diving board
tell me how old is 75?
