A Brand New Body


When people’s cars get old and worn
And they begin to toddle
They go somewhere an trade them in
And get the latest model.

Now I have often thought
When time has left me feeble
How nice ‘twould be to find a firm
That deals in worn-out people.

How nice ‘twould be when feet give out
Or we have damaged livers
If we could go and buy new parts
Just as we do for fivvers.

And when my frame is bent with age
And gets to looking shoddy
How nice t’would be to trade it in
And get a brand new body.
