This is a song I wrote when I turned 30. Some
of you may be able to relate... :)
Over The Hill Blues
Words and Music, Copyright (c) Vikram Madan, 1998-2001
Woke up this morning,
wishing that time would be still
'Cause when I wasn't looking,
time pushed me over the hill
Seems like yesterday,
I was 17 and going far
But now the only 17-year old
I know is my car
Once I had a dream,
But now I just have a bad knee,
Once I counted stars,
But now I just count calories
You know you're getting old
when you start buying broccoli
And you wake up in the morning
And lust for a cup of coffee
It's been a long time
since I turned heads walking through a door
I would still check out babes,
but the babes don't check me out no more
Ain't got no money,
And now I ain't got no hair
I'm going over the hill
And I know I'll be staying there
