SCRATCH MIH BACK
By Shadow
2000

When you young, you young
When you old, you old
Whey you young, you strong
When you old, you cold
When you young, you frisky, frisky,
Don't depend on anybody
As soon as the old age step in
Is a different song you singing
Is "Scratch mih back fuh mih. Scratch mih back fuh mih.
Rub mih neck fuh meh. Have respect fuh mih.
Ah want some water. Give me some water.
Ah want some water. Give me some water."
And when you done drink the water
Is too much for your bladder
You got to run for the posie
Old age have no remedy.

When you young, you young
When you old, you old
Whey you young, you strong
When you old, you cold
When you young, you look so pretty
Always showing off your beauty
When you old you look so simple
You can't tell wrinkle from dimple
"Scratch mih back fuh mih. Scratch mih back fuh mih.
Rub mih neck fuh mih. Have respect fuh mih.
Ah want mih posie. Gimme mih posie
Ah want mih posie. Gimme mih posie."
And when dey hand you de posie
The whole place smelling nosey
You done do it already
Old age have no remedy.

When you young, you young
When you old, you old
Whey you young, you strong
When you old, you cold
When you young, you pick and choosing
Who you want to call you darling
When you get down old and lonely, you answering anybody
"Scratch mih back fuh mih. Scratch mih back fuh mih.
Rub mih neck fuh meh. Have respect fuh mih.
Ah want mih false teeth. Gimme mih false teeth
Ah want mih false teeth. Gimme mih false teeth."
Your false teeth on a counter, in a big glass of water
And it slip your memory
Old age have no remedy.

When you young, you young
When you old, you old
Whey you young, you strong
When you old, you cold
When you young, you choosy, choosy
Telling ugly ones, "Excuse me?"
When old age start giving trouble
You are much more reasonable
Is "Scratch mih back fuh mih. Scratch mih back fuh mih.
Rub mih neck fuh meh. Have respect fuh mih.
Ah want Viagra. Gimme Viagra
Ah want Viagra. Gimme Viagra."
When you get the Viagra, you sit down in a corner
Looking tired and sleepy
Old age have no remedy.

A Note From The Gull

Thank you, Shadow.

"Patria est communis omnium parens" - Our native land is the common parent of us all. Keep it beautiful, make it even more so.

Blessed is all of creation
Blessed be my beautiful people
Blessed be the day of our awakening
Blessed is my country
Blessed are her patient hills.

Mweh ka allay!
