About This Song


You reach a certain age and realise that the only way to go is to grow old disgracefully!

A kind of 'My Generation' for my generation...

I don’t drink, I don’t swear
I’m just growing old disgracefully and I don’t care
I’ve got style, I’ve got poise
I’m deaf in one ear so I make a lotta noise
It’s alright, it’s okay
I’m at the centre of the universe and I’m here to stay
I feel strong, call it fate
And let me divvy my philosophy
‘It’s never too late’

chorus:
The blood's still pumping
The heart’s still thumping
Let me tell you something
I’m not dead yet!

You can’s stop me
Cos I’m not dead yet
The book is writ
But it’s not read yet
You can’t stop me
Cos the pulse is racing
I don’t fear the reaper cos it’s him that I’m a chasing

I don’t kill, I don’t bitch
The sap’s still rising, It’s the sixty-year itch
Give me love
Give me peace
But when the pressure starts to boil
Give me sweet release

You cant bring me down, cause there’s a fire in my soul
My volcano heart is burning
With the beat of my life and the pulse is racing
I don’t fear the reaper cos it’s him that I’m chasing
