Lyrics

That monkey, who used to be so funky Is now working for the Bureau d'No Change That swinger, who used to be a gunslinger Is now saying that his underwear is too strange That editor who used to be a go-getter Now puts a movie star on every magazine That tripper who wore a psychedelic zipper Is now hanging up pictures of the Queen Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Play a little better, willya--this song is just a filler That honey, who used to be a Playboy bunny Is now developing instant rabbit pie That nutcase, who used to have eccentric taste Now eats it like it's going out of style That stranger, who used to live for danger Is now acting like he never was a teenager That sister, she got herself a Mister Squeals like a pig every time he gets a blister Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Play a little softer, willya--those amplifiers'll kill ya Those rockers with dirty pictures in their lockers Now have them on their computer screens Those groovers, those shakers and those movers Don't get out much now that they can't fit in their jeans That screamer, who used to run a tag team Is now working for Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Making flavors that all the fat housewives crave You can't blame her: it's the fat chicks she gets, it seems And there's a lot of us are dropping like flies It came on so quickly, it was quite a surprise Everybody's talking 'bout the state of their health And I'm not feeling too good myself Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Play a little better, willya - this song is just a filler Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Did everybody just get old? Play a little better, willya - this song is just a filler
