She sometimes makes your eyes roll and you just don’t understand
The fact that her hormones are slipping through her hand
She wakes each morning although in a fog
She never really sleeps anymore like that proverbial "log"
She eats very little yet gains quite the pounds
The scale jumps up and the needle goes round
How does the number rise so fast with just a few meals
Its like the her metabolism has stalled at the wheel
The work days seem longer yet sadly mine are shorter
How is it by the end all I have energy for is watching "Hoarders"*?
She takes a deep breath and looks for her keys
Wonders about dinner and sees the skin drooping at her knees
The fact that her hormones are slipping through her hand
She wakes each morning although in a fog
She never really sleeps anymore like that proverbial "log"
She eats very little yet gains quite the pounds
The scale jumps up and the needle goes round
How does the number rise so fast with just a few meals
Its like the her metabolism has stalled at the wheel
Don't get me started about keeping fit
The hour long aerobics doesn't seem to do a bitThe work days seem longer yet sadly mine are shorter
As each day comes to a close she wonders where it went
It started up early but then the time was all spentShe takes a deep breath and looks for her keys
Wonders about dinner and sees the skin drooping at her knees
Some might say it all comes with age
That menopause is just a new page
But what it is really is quite a thought,
Yes, oh what it is really, is....
Oh dang...she forgot.
That menopause is just a new page
But what it is really is quite a thought,
Yes, oh what it is really, is....
Oh dang...she forgot.
