Some things haven`t changed all that much
Men still like to prove they are butch,
It's fixed in their genes
They’ll use any means
To show that they've still got the touch.

Do us women strive to stay young?
And our lips look like a bee`s stung?

Do us women strive to stay young?
And our lips look like a bee’s stung
I’m now past caring
Wrinkles I’m baring
And a big roll rests round my tum

In the old days I’d dance through the night

nanna8 Sun 21-Nov-21 06:45:13

Oops
Once I’d drink and dance through the night

henetha Sun 21-Nov-21 10:57:13

Once I’d drink and dance through the night
In the morning, oh what a sight!

GoldenLady Sun 21-Nov-21 17:36:34

Once I’d drink and dance through the night
In the morning, oh what a sight!

In the morning, oh what a sight!

Once I`d drink and dance through the night
In the morning, oh what a sight!

Just could not say no
Despite the fact, I looked a fright

I was never really, the belle of the ball

Juliet27 Mon 22-Nov-21 07:47:14

I was never belle of the ball
I’d fade away in the dance hall

henetha Mon 22-Nov-21 10:29:13

I was never belle of the ball
I’d fade away in the dance hall
Or dance all alone

lovebeigecardigans1955 Mon 22-Nov-21 15:58:25

I was never belle of the ball
I'd fade away in the dance hall
Or dance all alone
Get into my 'zone'

henetha Wed 24-Nov-21 10:23:31

I was never belle of the ball
I'd fade away in the dance hall
Or dance all alone
Get into my 'zone'
And trip over my bag and fall.

Then they'd take me to A and E

Crocus5 Wed 24-Nov-21 15:35:51

Then they’d take me to A and E
And offer me a cup of tea

Then they’d take me to A and E
And offer me a cup of tea
I felt such a fool

Then they’d take me to A and E
And offer me a cup of tea

Hellogirl1 Wed 24-Nov-21 21:51:12

Then they`d take me to A and E
And offer me a cup of tea
I felt such a fool
Not clever, not cool,

Ashcombe Wed 24-Nov-21 22:05:34

Then they`d take me to A and E
And offer me a cup of tea
I felt such a fool
Not clever, not cool,
To find I had fractured my knee!

The X-ray confirmed this was so,

Juliet27 Thu 25-Nov-21 07:23:05

The X-ray confirmed this was so,
I must admit that was a blow

henetha Thu 25-Nov-21 09:53:31

The X-ray confirmed this was so,
I must admit that was a blow
Now I'm in plaster

The x-ray confirmed this was so
I must admit that was a blow
Now I'm in plaster
What a disaster

Ashcombe Fri 26-Nov-21 13:43:09

The x-ray confirmed this was so
I must admit that was a blow
Now I'm in plaster
What a disaster
To physio next I must go.
