Senior Moments

This was written in November, 1999. That was a little early, I think. The recording was made on May 1, 2013. At least as far as I can remember.

Lyrics

Well, I’m livin’ a good life, at least I think so.

Got the mortgage paid down, I watch the portfolio.

But sometimes I go downstairs

And I find I’m unaware

Of just exactly what it was I meant to do there.

And I’m having one of those senior moments.

They happen more these days.

I’d tell you all about ‘em

But I don’t remember.

Well, I’m feelin’ good this year, at least I think so.

‘Course my vision’s not so clear, and I could use a new elbow.

But I really can’t complain.

I still have a working brain,

Although at times I find it’s working kind of slow.

When it’s havin’ one of those senior moments.

They happen more these days.

I’d tell you all about ‘em

But I don’t remember.

Senior moments, I have ‘em all the time.

Senior moments, they are just a state of mind.

They don’t bother me, for goodness sake.

They are just nature’s way of telling me to take a little break.

I have family and good friends, at least I think so.

You are the nicest bunch of folks that I will ever know.

You are scattered near and far,

And I know I’m up to par

If I can just remember who the heck you are.

But I’m havin’ one of those senior moments.

They happen more these days.

I’d tell you all about it

But I won’t remember.

Senior moments, I have ‘em all the time.

Senior moments, they are just a state of mind.

They don’t bother me, for goodness sake.

They are just nature’s way of telling me to take a little break.
