The Lyrics
Gig’s Have New Pattern
Gig’s have new pattern
Crowd that knows us the best
British Invasion
In a home meant for rest
Old-folks are happy…just
To see us again
Canes planted firmly
Hearing-aids turned to “10”
And we’re playing
They're not staying
“When’s lunch” they’re saying…
Mellotron's blaring
Taped “samples” allow
Tunes to sound rich and full
Can hear the hiss now
We’re just 5 geezers
Cashing-in on our past
Glad that technology
Makes our audience last
And we’re touring,
Prune juice pouring
Audience snoring…
Branson Missouri
All the tourists…our friends
Groupies with walkers
Hot pants lined with Depends
Hits for the radio
Pop “classics” for you
Just what the “blues” are
Well, we haven’t a clue
We’re still breathing,
We’re not leaving
Hair we keep weaving…
(repeat and fade)
(spoken…)
Give thanks, the room is half-sold
Patrons who are really old
Bedwetting seniors with handicapped plates
“Well, this is our fan-base” Justin relates
Immobile rocker, nursing a beer
Senile man thinks that “Mick” will appear
Old lady jumps-up and flashes her dugs
Ancient gentlemen straighten their rugs
Cold hearted time, reduces height,
Impairs our hearing, robs our sight.
Hair is gray, and dentures white,
Now “future’s past” is our plight
And youth is an allusion…
