Smell The Flowers While You Can


The old and the wise
Meet up in this place
They talk about their lives
And the wrinkles on their face
Well all these kids today
Don't make 'em like they used to
Well I guess that it's okay
You're not understanding are you?

Appreciate your shining youth
Enjoy your perfect soul
Appreciate the tiny fact
The fact that you're not old
Did they leave you in the cold?

The old and the naive
Meet up in this room
All the time they're talking
Will they be leaving soon?
Well monkeys these days
They don't jump like they used to
Well I guess that it's okay
Still not understanding are you?

Appreciate your shining youth
Enjoy your perfect soul
Appreciate the tiny fact
The fact that you're not old
Did they leave you in the cold?

So run while you can
Don't you ever stop
You'll never get it again
Pretty soon you're gonna drop
