The Lyrics
As I was approaching my 40th birthday, I knew it wasn't the end of the world, although all my life I had thought, being 40 was ancient. I then felt inspired to write a parody for the song - End of the world.
40th bday song
Why does my hair keep on falling?
Why does this sight of mine blur?
Yet I know it's not the end of the world
Just coz they ain't the way they were
Why do my thighs keep on rubbing..
when I walk down the street?
Jogging is great but its just for young girls
Whose thighs don't generate such heat.
I look into the mirror and I wonder
Why this frame ain't the same as it was
I can't understand, no I can't understand
Why each part sags the way it does
Why has my hair started graying?
Why do these heels of mine crack?
I hope you know I'm the same as before
Just 40 years and right on track.
Why does my hair keep on falling?
Why does this sight of mine blur?
Yet I know it's not the end of the world
Just coz they ain't the way they were
Why do my thighs keep on rubbing..
when I walk down the street?
Jogging is great but its just for young girls
Whose thighs don't generate such heat.
I look into the mirror and I wonder
Why this frame ain't the same as it was
I can't understand, no I can't understand
Why each part sags the way it does
Why has my hair started graying?
Why do these heels of mine crack?
I hope you know I'm the same as before
Just 40 years and right on track.
