lately all the songs i write are slow and on the mellow side i used to stand on mtv but now they bring a chair for me let me get a tube of ointment let s rub my achy joints and turn my hearing aid loud and throw depends into the crowd this must be how it feels this must be how it feels to get old if i try to play hard rock it d probably put me into shock don t expect no big drum fills the drummer s lost his motor skills so let s get to the point i m as mellow as the doobies and when i head to the commode i just pray that i can go and this must be how it feels to be old
