It ain't no fun in growing older It's just a big ol' drag All my friends they are dying off And I feel like a rung-out rag All them presents don't mean nothing I trade 'em all to be young and gay Yeah, put a candle on my birthday cake And blow me, blow me away It ain't no fun in celebratin' Yeah celebratin' it just don't work They say 60 is the new 40 So why don't I feel like I am some young turk They laugh about my old-age spread They laugh about my hair of gray Yeah, put a candle on my birthday cake And blow me, blow me away It ain't no fun being all broke down And hear them kids call me "sir" Maybe if I squint harder in the mirror I could see myself as I once were If only I could just put it off Put it off for one more day Yeah, put a candle on my birthday cake And blow me, blow me away It ain't no fun to raise my glass and toast to being 62 What is worth commemorating When I'm facing my own Waterloo Wish I that could swish around the dance floor Just like Danny Kaye Yeah, put a candle on my birthday cake And blow me, blow me away
