\t 24. Now another year has passed
\n\t Don’t look now they’re gaining fast!<\/p>\n

\t 24a. So far Death you have bypassed
\n\t Don’t look back, he’s gaining fast<\/p>\n

\t 25. Now you’ve lived another year
\n\t Age to you is like stale beer<\/p>\n

\t 26. Now your jail-bait days are done
\n\t Let’s go out and have some fun<\/p>\n

\t 27. See the wrinkles on your face
\n\t Like the pattern of fine lace<\/p>\n

\t 28. Were I sitting in your shoes
\n\t I’d go out and sing the blues<\/p>\n

\t 29. So you’re 29 again
\n\t Don’t tell lies to your good friend<\/p>\n

\t 29a. Tho you’re turning 29
\n\t Age to you is like fine wine<\/p>\n

\t 30. You must marry very soon
\n\t Baby’s due the next full moon<\/p>\n

\t 31. When you’ve reached this age you know
\n\t That the mind is first to go!<\/p>\n

\tHB Frank – thanks for all your help and guidance in this journey we are all on together!<\/p>\n
