Paroles de Old People

Old people on the hill
They don't have too much time
Cut a head on the buffet line

Got back for a dollar and 50
Then I argue with the ...girl
They lived so much behind them
They try to slow down this god damn world

Old people are pushing and they aren't mushy
Old people are pushing cause life ain't cushy


Old people are pushing
They drag what they don't want drag
And go as slow as they want to
They don't care who stays alive

And they'll kiss that grand baby
All around the back and back front
They don't care what you think of them
That baby has got something that they want

Old people are pushing and they aren't mushy
Old people are pushing cause life ain't cushy
Old people are pushing and they aren't mushy And when you pretend you do
They know it's not real
But soon it's gonna be all over
Got another reason to let you pass
It seems like sweet , old people
But they are not about to kiss your ass

Old people are pushing and they aren't mushy
Old people are pushing cause life ain't cushy
Old people are pushing and they aren't mushy
Old people are pushing cause life ain't cushy

Old people are pushing,
Old people are pushing
Old people are pushing
Cause life ain't cushy
