How did I get this old?

Now my face is haggard
My body's a wreck
I've an ache in my back
and a pain in my neck
I've got permanent wrinkles all around my eyes
And I just can't get over how quickly
time flies...

How did I ever get to be this old?
And what ever happened to my youth?
Did it drift away one night while I was stoned?
Or did I misplace it while I was getting screwed?

I just lost my best friend,
I lost my whole life...
I walked down town to phone him tonight
But all he said was
"when are you coming to pick up your gear?"
When "I miss you, come home"
is what I really wanted to hear

How did I ever get to be this old?
And what ever happened to my youth?
Did it drift away one night while I was stoned?
Or did I misplace it while I was getting screwed?
