Lyrics - The Stage
©2006 Jackie Henrion/Mamaloose Music Inc. (ASCAP)
You crawl over to the bedside
From where your fevered body thrashes
Your sheets are damp and sweaty
It's not the cold flu, it's hot flashes
You used to gaze down in the shower
As water washed away the pain
Now you stand and watch in horror
As the hair you used to have flows down the drain
You have
Reached the stage---
Done with rehearsals
Now you can act---
Your age
Volcanoes seethe inside you
Moods of doubt, rage and shame
You look around to see who's noticed
And then you look for someone else to blame
(repeat chorus)
Rosy days are gone, but quit your whining
‘Cause even this cloud’s got a silver lining
See there's no more monthly curse to haunt you
You buy yourself a new red car
You flirt with the hot new workout trainer
And you get senior discounts at the bar
(repeat chorus 2x)
