My teeth that used to bite have long lost the fight.
My hair that once was gray has now become white.
My eyesight is cloudy yet my liver spots shine bright.
I can barely walk two blocks before my knees give out.
The only things older than me are the bills in my pocket.
One sultry look from you baby and I'm off like a rocket.
Just please keep the machines hooked up to the socket,
And maybe I'll teach you how to play the stock market.
I'll treat you like the princess your father always said you were.
I'll lavish you with expensive jewels, car, clothes, and fur.
I'll take you to fancy dinner parties from here all the way to Japan.
You'll never have to cook, clean, or work for this sugar man!
