Baby Boomer Blues
BABY BOOMER BLUES
It was fun being a baby boomer… until now.
Some of the artists of the 60’s are revising their hits
with new lyrics to accommodate ageing Baby Boomers.
They include
Herman’s Hermits‘Mrs. Brown, You’ve Got a Lovely Walker’
Ringo Starr‘I Get By With a Little Help From Depends’
The Bee Gees‘How Can You Mend a Broken Hip’
Roberta Flack‘The First Time Ever I Forgot Your Face’
Johnny Nash‘I Can’t See Clearly Now’
Paul Simon‘Fifty Ways to Lose Your Liver’
The Commodores‘Once, Twice, Three Times to the Bathroom’
Procol Harem‘A Whiter Shade of Hair’
Leo Sayer‘You Make Me Feel Like Napping’
The Temptations‘Papa’s Got a Kidney Stone’
Abba‘Denture Queen’
Tony Orlando‘Knock 3 Times On The Ceiling If You Hear Me Fall’
Helen Reddy‘I Am Woman, Hear Me Snore’
Leslie Gore‘It’s My Procedure, and I’ll Cry If I Want To’
And my favorite:
Willie Nelson‘On the Commode Again’
Editor’s Note: We are not Baby Boomers, but Rock and Roll is part of us. This column has appeared so many times on social media that we can’t find where it originated. We hope it gives you a laugh or two.
