Lyrics:
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 shell of an egg Someone call a decent physician I'm no pete rose, I can't pretend Though my mind is quite flexible, these brittle bones don't bend Chorus: I'm growing older but not up My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck Let those winds of time blow over my head Id rather die while I'm living than live while I'm 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: I'm growing older but not up My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck Let those winds of time blow over my head Id rather die while I'm livin than live while I'm 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 hell, well take it right to the end As the days grow more complicated the nightlife still wins Chorus: I'm growing older but not up My metabolic rate is pleasantly stuck Let those winds of change blow over my head Id rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead Let those winds of time blow over my head Id rather die while I'm living than live while I'm dead
