Hair Club For Men

Sorry

I was sitting at home late one night

sipping cheap whisky and trying not to cry

Cause when you're alone your thoughts get dim

your mind goes to places it never should have been.

Now we all get older and that's just a fact

but age ain't the problem we can agree on that

It's the side effects that cause us grief 

Our pants get tight and we got yellow teeth.

But it's the other things that cause us pain

receding hairlines and gray on our face.

A bigger shirt might hide a few pounds

But that first gray hair, it's a bad as it sounds.

Got a little bit of gray on your chin

Just get a little dab and paint it in

We all get a little bit thinner on top

I hit up the bars and a few dating sites 

and I finally found the girl that just my type

She was a beautiful, dark haired, curvy Cuban

Last time I got laid was at the family reunion

I bought her a few drinks to get her loose

a fruity concoction with rum and juice

I picked a little spot where the light was low

Because we all look better in candle light glow.

It's was going pretty good until the drinks got there

But I took off my hat and she started to stare.

A mirror on the wall reflected the light

and the top of my head was glowing bright.

I picked up a paper and looked at the personal section

God knows I couldn't handle more rejection.

I saw an ad that was perfect for me

posted by a lady who couldn't really see.

It said tall and busty, forty-four Ds

Perfect for a man who's only five-foot-three.

So I dialed the number and she answered on the spot

With a date for tonight, who'd ever thought.

I got to the table and waited a while

till she walked through the door wearing a big 'ol smile

She was a lanky-legged beauty, that was a fact

But I couldn't get past her thin mustache.

Thanks, Sometimes you just got to have a little fun

[Haley]

This is so funny, keeps you reading, and has great rhythm! Good job

[James]

Thanks. I used to write serious poetry, maybe one day I will again.

This is banging on all cylinders, my friend! Wowza & what a ride! I love rhyme & rhythm, plus I love doing re-writes of songs . . . this one had the right beat for one of those songs . . . was it Monster Mash (tipped off by line 1)? That only lasted for a bit, then it got a life all its own. Many writers post lyrics but I have never felt the musicality like this one throws off! You can't read this without having a song running in the background. But then your storyline is way off the charts, being both realistic & far-fetched, riding that line so nicely. Love this one & glad to see something new here from you! (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie

Thanks. I wasn't thinking about Monster Mash at all. I really didn't plan any of this out. I'm glad it gave you a laugh. I started singing as I was writing, but it didn't start out that way.

Loved the humour in this write. We all have our hang ups as we get older. Many men curse the fact that they are follicly challenged. ( not sure I've spelt that right, but you get my gist) Us women have a ting about the extra pounds on our rump:) Plus the wrinkles and all the other bits. Better to accept and age gracefully together don't ya think?

[James]

I do think so. I don't think I have to worry about going bald, but the gray is clearly on the way.

This is funny...............

[James]

Thanks. I was just trying to have a little fun.

[jacob erin-cilberto]

this was a blast to read...yes, we get so paranoid about showing our age, instead of growing old gracefully.
I am resigned to the silver...
thanks for the smile, James.

I'm getting there. My beard has more gray than black

[Ana Papaya]

:) this was a fun read. Can relate to getting older for sure and isn't it funny how as we age men lose and women gain (hair)

[James]

This is what happens when I get bored. I'm still working on it. Thanks

[Ana Papaya]

You're welcome. I love it. :)
