Gettin hairy
Gettin weary
Gettin bolder
Gettin older
Gettin fancy
Gettin antsy
Gettin strange
Things have changed.
Kinder, Taller, Hairier,
Smarter, Angrier, Scarier
From the minute of our birth
Till our last moment on Earth
As surely as we keep aging
We are always changing
For the good
and for the bad
Change makes you happy
and it makes you sad
Change can be a slow and long road
like an old man watching the soil erode
or Change can come in a blink
and still make you think
Some change their style
Some change their minds
Some change once in a while
Some change all the time
Your body used to be another
one that you were used to
Now, it’s slightly different
You notice if you choose to
Your teeth aren’t as white
You know that I’m right
Your hairline is receding
Glory is fleeting
Your memory is in total discord
You forget all of your passwords
You forget things you used to remember
I think mom’s birthday is in December…
Isn’t it?
Changes are consistent as the sun coming up
every morning
As persistent as getting sleepy every night
and yawning.
Some people hate change
while some people love it
Some get trampled underfoot
and some rise above it
for
When you are through changing
then you are through.
You’ve become antiquated
overcome by things anew
Change will overtake you
while you are idle
Fighting change
is simply suicidal
Like black and white TV
put to sleep by Technicolor
you stayed the same but
now you’ve become duller
You could be in a vacuum
and never ever change
but those around you would
and say that you’ve become strange.
It’s that simple.
Everything changes.

Your fam changes.
The land changes.
A man changes.
