OLD GUARD - NEW GUARD
©1998
By Dolly Juhlin
Following "Point-Counter Point" on "Fred's Place" inspired this bit of doggerel
O ld, decrepit, past their prime
L et them be the last in line
D on't listen to what they may say
G one are times when done that way
U ncle, dad, and grandpa too
A ll old farts who we can screw
R anting 'bout how things were then
D amn, there's naught to learn from them
N ow we're the future, watch us shine
E 's and O's, we're all just fine
W e'll do it my way, hell be damned
G ermany? Ocean Station? Vietnam?
U nless I fall flat on my face
A ll old coots must stay in their place
R eady always you may stand by
D o help me though should you hear me cry
