I hate my body; I hate getting old!
My youth and beauty I’m desperate to hold
I get wrinkles here, and crows-feet there
These lines I hate appear everywhere
My boobs now sag down to my belly
My once tight butt now shakes like jelly
My clothes don’t fit, they’re loose or they’re tight
I freeze then I sweat all through the night
As I’m getting fat my brows grow thin
I’m losing my hair, except on my chin
Handfuls of pills to help keep me tranquil
Bottles of wine for which I am thankful
To keep my memory, I do word drills
Wait, did I remember to take my pills?
My beautiful locks have now turned to grey
My spider vein webs get bigger every day
My once full lips would pucker all night
Now the puckers are just thigh cellulite
I work out at the gym, have foods I forego
And deal with things that just women know
The wrong things get bigger, the tip of my nose
And my stretching and drooping poor ear lobes
Gravity has taken hold of some things
Droopy eyelids and those damn chicken wings
I know you think that we look like we were
But if you don’t shut up there’ll, be a murder!!
