Help the Aged

Help the aged

One time, they were just like you

Drinking, smoking cigs, and sniffing glue

Help the aged

Don't just put them in a home

Can't have much fun when they're all on their own

Give a hand if you can

Try to help them to unwind

Give them hope and give them comfort

'Cause they're running out of time

In the meantime, we try

Try to forget that nothing lasts forever

No big deal, so give us all a feel

Funny how it all falls away

When did you first realize

It's time you took an older lover, baby?

Teach you stuff, although he's looking rough

Funny how it all falls away

Help the aged

'Cause one day you'll be older, too

You might need someone who can pull you through

And if you look very hard

Behind those lines upon their face

You may see where you are headed

And it's such a lonely place, oh

In the meantime, we try

Try to forget that nothing lasts forever

No big deal, so give us all a feel

Funny how it all falls away

When did you first realize

It's time you took an older lover, baby?

Teach you stuff, although he's looking rough

Funny how it all falls away

You can dye your hair, but it's the one thing you can't change

Can't run away from yourself, yourself, yourself

Self, self, self, self

Self, self, self, self

Self, self

In the meantime, we try

Try to forget that nothing lasts forever

No big deal, so give us all a feel

Funny how it all falls away

When did you first realize

It's time you took an older lover, baby?

Teach you stuff, although he's looking rough

Funny how it all falls away

Oh, it's funny how it all falls away

Funny how it all falls away

Oh, it's funny how it all, it all falls away

So help the aged
