Happy 71st, Paul Barrere

Oh my, thanks, Bluest.

Sexy band, sexy stuff. (I think I've posted this before: Paul Barrere was in my 10th grade English class '63-'64 at Hollywood High and was the only person I had a crush on - no reason why, just was. I don't think we ever talked and I didn't know that he was a musician. I was only there that one year...)

Off Our Rockers, Actin' Crazy
With the Right Medication We Won't Be Lazy
Doin' the Old Folks Boogie Down On the Farm
Wheelchairs, They Was Locked Arm in Arm
Paired Off Pacemakers With Matchin' Alarms
Gives Us Jus' One More Chance
To Spin One More Yarn

And You Know That You're Over the Hill
When Your Mind Makes a Promise
That Your Body Can't Fill
Doin' the Old Folks Boogie And Boogie
We Will 'cause to Us the Thought's As Good As a Thrill

Back At the Home, No Time Is Your Own,
Facilities There, They're All Out On Loan
The Bank Forclose, and Your Bankruptcy Shows
And Your Credit Creeps to An All-time Low
So You Know, That You're Over the Hill
When Your Mind Makes a Promise That Your Body Can't Fill

Try and Get a Rise From An Atrophied Muscle,
And the Nerves in Your Thigh Just Quivers and Fizzles
So You Know, That You're Over the Hill
When Your Mind Makes a Promise That Your Body Can't Fill
