Lyrics

Stupid old man

It’s that moment that you realize
That your life has passed its peak
It’s all downhill from here now
And you know you’re getting weak
You look back upon your life
And you hope you’ve done some good
But the truth is, nothing special
You didn’t give it what you could

Stupid old man
You thought you had a plan
But it didn’t seem
to go the way you said
Now you moan and grumble
as you awkwardly fumble
Towards the moment that
you finally wind up dead.

You had some fun
You had some laughs
You did what you thought was right
But in the end, it’s added up
Too many lonely nights
Good things come to those that wait
Is the common wisdom told
But you’ve been waiting for a lifetime
And now you are just old

Stupid old man
You thought you had a plan
But it didn’t seem
to go the way you said
Now you moan and grumble
as you awkwardly fumble
Towards the moment that
you finally wind up dead.


You no longer have the desire
to play a young man’s game
It really doesn’t matter now
It’s all rigged, just the same
You’ll be left to yell at children
“Hey you, get off my lawn!”
You’ll be well forgotten
Long before you’re gone.


Stupid old man
You thought you had a plan
But it didn’t seem
to go the way you said
Now you moan and grumble
as you awkwardly fumble
Towards the moment that
you finally wind up dead.
