lyrics

New Old Man

he still wears jeans and they’re still blue
they look worn in, but they’re brand new
for that kind of style, you’re gonna pay
but he can’t wait to tell you, back in the day....
he joined the SDS, he rallied and marched
now he collects vinyl as a investment art
he’s got a pony tail and a retirement plan
let me introduce you to the new old man

he liked marriage so much he tried it three times
now he pays alimony for all of his crimes
at least for the ones where he got caught
I guess there are some things that just can’t be taught
So he dates a lot now, he’s a man about town
he can still get it up and still get way down
Thanks to a little blue pill and a caribbean tan
let me introduce you to the new old man

his watch cost more then my car
and is car cost more than my house
the drugs he takes are all legal now
but they all leave a very bitter taste in his mouth

no one calls him grandpa, well not to his face
and he knows more about denial then he knows about grace
still he keeps on pushing like he can make the sun rise
now there bags underneath, but no stars in his eyes
set out to change the world and set things right
now he changes the channel in the middle of the night
when the news reminds him what became of his plan
let me introduce you to the new old man
