Subject: Ballade of interrupted sleep
Comes a time when the mid-night piss
calls for resolve after weighing up
whether to rise or give it a miss.
Why'd you accept that second cup?
Retirement: you've been sold a pup.
Can you lie still, you need to gauge?
No, move you must or you'll erupt.
Sheer terrorism, this old age.
Remember times of nightly bliss
when dreams flowed on, no interrupt,
your liver cause of no anguish
- a full night's sleep, zero hiccups.
Now pelvic floor you must develop.
Who thought you'd ever reach this stage
when nature's call should so disrupt?
Sheer terrorism, this old age.
Sometimes you'll think nothing's amiss,
your bed a field of buttercups.
But believe it like an atheist:
your body's got its own setup.
Sleeps right through it will corrupt.
If only you could disengage.
The breach in slumber so abrupt.
Sheer terrorism, this old age.
Envoi
Doc, you decide - it's a toss-up:
Before another night's outrage,
should I go and get a checkup?
Sheer terrorism, this old age.
