The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

As I’m getting older, chip up on my shoulder

Rolling through life, to roll over and die

La, la, la, la

Oh

Missing hippy Jon, salad days are gone

Remembering things just to tell ‘em so long

La, la, la, la

Oh

Oh mama, actin’ like my life’s already over

Oh dear, act your age and try another year

Always feeling tired, smiling when required

Write another year off and kindly resign

La, la, la, la

Oh

Salad days are gone, missing hippy Jon

Remembering things just to tell ‘em so long

La, la, la, la

Oh

Oh mama, actin’ like my life’s already over

Oh dear, act your age and try another year
