LOVE SONG
Tom Lehrer


Since I still appreciate you let's find love while we may 
because I know I'll hate you when you are old and gray
So say you love me here and now, I'll make the most of that
Say you love and trust me for I know you'll disgust me 
when you're old and getting fat

An awful debility a lessened utility a loss of mobility is a strong possibility
In all probability I'll lose my virility and you your fertility and desirability
And this liability of total sterility will lead to hostility and sense of futility
So let's act with agility while we still have facility 
for we'll soon reach senility and lose the ability

Your teeth will start to go dear, your waist will start to spread, 
in twenty years of so dear I'll wish that you were dead
I'll never love you then at all the way I do today 
So please remember when I leave in December
I told you so in May
