Haven’t felt fine for the longest time
Feeling like shit right now
My head hurts, my back aches
Old age, take a bow
If I could trade places with a 20-year-old
You bet your sweet life I would
To have a body that’s resilient and strong
To have a body that feels good
You grow old and the body conspires
Every day is a day in pain
From your head down to your toes
You watch your friends as they wither away
And your fear just grows and grows
No one gets a pass not even the rich
No one's spared life indignity
One by one we slowly march along
On the road to our final destiny
You grow old and the body conspires
There is no way to age with grace
You wind up looking pretty dire
Just when you think you are at your peak
Your body will conspire
It's like a cosmic joke
A joke that’s kind of sick
All the misery you can endure
And it’s over much too quick
You grow old and the body conspires
