The Lyrics
when i was seventeen...i had a very good rear
i had a very good rear...it wowed the girls
they'd gaze at the sight
my butt, nice and tight
it was nice and lean...when i was seventeen
when i was twenty one...i had a pretty good rear
i had a pretty good rear...it lured some girls
right into my lair
and then i'd get bare
and they'd admire my buns...when i was twenty one
when i was thirty five...i had a fairly good rear
i had a fairly good rear...i still got girls
but none of my dreams
rather wide in the beam
though i still had the drive...when i was thirty five
and now my butt's all warped...i've got an ugly ol' rear
i've got veiny like vines...and wrinkly lines
my cheeks have spread
its itchy and red
and i think its clear...i've got an ugly ol' rear
i've got a messy ol' rear
i had a very good rear...it wowed the girls
they'd gaze at the sight
my butt, nice and tight
it was nice and lean...when i was seventeen
when i was twenty one...i had a pretty good rear
i had a pretty good rear...it lured some girls
right into my lair
and then i'd get bare
and they'd admire my buns...when i was twenty one
when i was thirty five...i had a fairly good rear
i had a fairly good rear...i still got girls
but none of my dreams
rather wide in the beam
though i still had the drive...when i was thirty five
and now my butt's all warped...i've got an ugly ol' rear
i've got veiny like vines...and wrinkly lines
my cheeks have spread
its itchy and red
and i think its clear...i've got an ugly ol' rear
i've got a messy ol' rear

Butt, it is graphical... ;-)
Yeah, thanks for the imagery. No, really. Glad you ran out of verses. Funny stuff though.
Hilhairyass!
alvin, this one was an LOL that quickly turned into a COL (Cackle out loud) and kept going until my own buns were shaking....and I was picturing Sinatra, standing onstage in his suit, delivering this one in all earnestness...doing his bit with the longer and "deeper meaning" phrasing and carrying out and holding those notes...Oh, man, I gotta stop...Nope, can't - OK...now you've Nelson Riddle and His Orchestra in the background with the horns blaring and reaching up after Frankie's final notes here...
VERY funny, Alvin...=)
