Lyrics for Old to Begin

Embrace the senile genius Watch him reinvent the wheel I don't need your summary acts, summary acts To give into the narrative age Old to begin, I will set you back, set you back, set you Old to begin, I will set you back, set you back, set you We get to feeling like a fixture Set in 1966 Time came that we drifted apart, drifted apart To find an identical twin Old to begin, I will set you back, set you back, set you Old to begin, I will set you back, set you back, fella Searching for latent 'cause, blame it on menopause Or perhaps stress and strain credit cards, lumbar pain But I've seen your double dares everything extraordinaire I know the things you do are gonna come back Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ahh!
