growing older but not up - jimmy buffett lyrics

Loading...

by: jimmy buffett
1980
for all those who don’t feel as old as they are and never will
i rounded first never thought of the worst
as i studied the shortstops position
crack went my leg like the sh-ll of an egg
someone call a decent physician
im no pete rose, i can’t pretend
though my mind is quite flexible, these brittle bones don’t bend

chorus:
im growing older but not up
my metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
let those winds of time blow over my head
id rather die while im living than live while im dead

sometimes i see me as old manatee
headin south as the waters grow colder
tries to steer clear of the hum-drum so near
it cuts prop scars deep in his shoulder
but that’s how it goes (that’s how it goes), right to the end
though his bodys quite flexible, that barnacle brain don’t bend

chorus:
im growing older but not up
my metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
let those winds of time blow over my head
id rather die while im livin than live while im dead

(instrumental)

now don’t get me wrong
this is not a sad song
just events that i have happened to witness
and time takes it’s toll as we head for the poll
and no one dies from physical fitness
so what the h-ll, well take it right to the end
as the days grow more complicated the nightlife still wins

chorus:
im growing older but not up
my metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck
let those winds of change blow over my head
id rather die while im living than live while im dead
let those winds of time blow over my head
id rather die while im living than live while im dead
