Dreadful Mornings

    
This morning when I woke up
I tried hard to roll over
But couldn't because my arms and legs
Were tied up in the covers.

Finally I escaped their grasp
and sat up on the bed
Then I looked around to see
Who had kicked me in the head.

No one was there so I stood up
And went to take a shower.
But trying to get into the tub
Was like climbing the Eiffel Tower.

With hair shampooed and body washed
Into the mirror I looked
There I saw more wrinkles than
There are pages in a book.

I decided I should brush my teeth
To help make my smile shine
Then I suddenly remembered
They're soaking in that old cup of mine.

So I thought, I'll comb my hair
That always pleases me
Then fear set in, as I recalled
What hair? There's only three.

I shed some tears and then I dressed
Trying to look my best.
But that's hard to do since my stomach
Sticks out further than my chest.

I really don't mind getting old
Even with all this pain.
But OH these dreadful mornings
Are gonna drive me insane.
