Me mum don't like the clothes I wear.
Me dad don't like my spiky hair.
Teachers at school say I'm a fool.
But I say to them you're just uncool.
Tell me what's it like to be old
What's it like to be old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
Because you're old old old old old
You know you're old old old old old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
Me mum don't like the school report.
I'm sorry dad but it really wasn't my fault.
Can this be here son? Can this be true?
It says you make the young girl boo hoo hoo.
Boo hoo hoo
Tell me what's it like to be old
What's it like to be old
Tell me what's it like to be old
Because you old old old old old
You know you're old old old old old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
Tell me what's it like to be old
What's it like to be old
Tell me what's it like to be old
Because you old old old old old
You know you're old old old old old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
What's it like to be old
What's it like ot be old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
What's it like to be old
Yeah What's it like to be old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
Because you old old old old old
You know you're old old old old old
Tell me what's it like to be old.
