ok, i found you, and i'll play:

here i am with TD,
and an urgent need to pee,
and hair grows where it shouldn't,
and no desire (well, i wouldn't
take it personally, if i were you) ...
and i'm hunched, and bunched, and feeling weak --
tell me, just when did i peak?

i try to get strong, i try this trend or latest "insight-
ful" thing; i get along, but still ... (if i'd had any foresight
in my youth, i'd have discovered some kind of truth --
don't abuse that body! it's a fragile melody!)
i totter and fall, and i've no balance at all,
will i ever not limp? i'm a gimp! phooey!

i not aging!! i'm raging!! -- at sixty? -- i can't be!!
not me!! phooey!
i have much left to do, much to see, a grandchild to meet!
i repeat, i repeat -- not me!!

so get well, you old thing, you have work yet to do,
and life to pursue ...
i repeat, i repeat -- not me!!

but phooey!, just the same ...

WHAT a good idea, bonbe!!
