THE COSMIC OWL

The Senior's Card

 
 
A good friend lent me her Senior's Card
To go to the movies cheap.
I didn't think that I looked that old,
So her charity cut pretty deep!
 
Oh shit!  Does she think I look old enough to pass?
 
The girl in the box office, no better help,
Didn't challenge my use of the card.
If only she'd said, "Are you sure this is yours?"
I wouldn't have hit her so hard.
 
Oh shit!  Are the years overtaking me so fast?
 
The girl at MacDonald's, a flashy young minx,
Said I could have my coffee for free
If I showed her my current Senior's Card,
So I told her to go climb a tree!
 
Oh shit!  At this rate I'll soon look like my passport photo!
 
The bus driver, he was the worst of the lot,
Let the bus down so I could get off. 
He told me, "No charge for a lady your age,"
So I told the young brat to piss off!
 
Oh shit!  Only four months before I get my own Senior's Card!
