Kishore Kumar Hits — Loudon Wainwright III - How Old is 75? lyrics

Artist: Loudon Wainwright III

album: Lifetime Achievement

How old is 75?
So old that you're hardly alive
It's a number that's weighty
In five years, you'll be 80
Poised weigh up there on the high
Diving board
Tell me, how old is 75?
My minute of 74
The way I thought she'll get a little bit more
Turned she gets what she gets
So why get upset
And we all wanted a little bit more time a-new
A minute in 74
♪
And my daddy, he kicked at 62
Weigh too young, but then what can you do?
When ones number is up
There is no prenup
Type agreement between God and you
My dad, he kicked at 62
And so we proceed to go hence
In a hope, some of it made some sense
We got a lot on our mouths what gets done is what counts
What time wasted on, was it well spent?
Did ya do as you're chose, like you're meant?
♪
And I'm having a party this year
I'm inviting all those dear in need
I may need a lift if you get my drift
And I'm hoping you all will be here then
I'm having a party this year
But I know some of you won't be there
I suppose you could be anywhere
In the heater of soil
Free from sorrow and toil
You'll be missed, but you don't really care anymore
I know some of you won't be there
Tell me, how old is 75?
So old that you're barely alive
In five years, I'll be 80
I will hear the fat lady
Belly fat chopped knife swan dive
Or a canning ball of a high diving board
Tell me, how old is 75?
