Your cruel lips called me old
How can your heart be so cold
What did give away my age?
I'm a lion in a cage
Is it because I'm bald?
Με είπες γέροντα στη ψύχρα
Τα χείλη σου γεμάτα πίκρα
Αν θες εξήγησε
Τι με μαρτύρησε;
Ότι δε μου 'μεινε μια τρίχα;
an experienced age has the power and courage of a lion though in cage!
Not a true story of course... A lion with no mane is less of a lion, A man bald looks old, and so cold, but a bold limerick, no doubt.
